In trying to improve the consistency of the White Ferns, where should we be focusing our attention?

First and foremost, it seems to me that our domestic competition simply doesn't prepare our players for international cricket.

There are a couple of sides that dominate domestic women's cricket, but the overall standard of the domestic comp is simply too far below international cricket.

Scoring lots of runs and taking lots of wickets...

He made a really, really good debut at centre, good running lines, nice han...

I saw Chanel Harris-Tavita afterwards and you could tell how devastated he was. Games aren't won or lost on missed kicks, Andrew Webster made that point afterwards.

But the fact remains if he'd landed that last conversion from a pretty handy position, the scores would have been level, and this game might have taken a different path.

The other kicks he missed were tricky. Kurt Capewell and Mitch Barnett both scoring out wide left, n...
