Suzie Bates and Amy Satterthwaite have been holding it down for the White Ferns in WBBL02. Sara McGlashan's Sydney Sixers are in top spot though, plus Adelaide Strikers need Sophie Devine to fire again.

Chill on the Blackcaps hype because Bangladesh are still very patchy as they bring in some youngsters. So this first Test might not tickle your fancy, we'll be all over the Ford Trophy as well if that's your thing.
Delivering the ball from the clouds, Canterbury seamer Kyle Jamieson has an x-factor that no other kiwi bowler has making him one to watch ... and the perfect bloke to answer some questions for El Niche Cache.
Corey Anderson can hit any delivery to the boundary, but he's a capable Test batsman and there's a plan in place.
Tom Bruce is finally getting some props after great domestic cricket work, perfect time for him to answer some questions for El Niche Cache.
BJ Watling was a gun for Northern Districts in the Super Smash, so he's got to featured in Team Grizzly Veterans along with Michael Papps, Seth Rance and Hamish Bennett.
Jimmy Neesham was efficient with bat and ball in his few Super Smash games, giving Team Youngins' some experience. Team Youngins' also features the likes of Glenn Phillips, Blair Tickner and Mark Chapman.
Not a whole lot to talk about in the Blackcaps Test squad to face Bangladesh, so the Diggity Doc throws out a few curve-balls.
The Blackcaps Test team is approaching a crossroads where Mitchell Santner could allow them to spice things up, or maintain their journey through Test cricket mediocrity.
The Blackcaps are in the midst of a 3xT20 series against Bangladesh and Ross Taylor, for some reason, is not there.
Jeremy Benton's made his Canterbury T20 debut this season and is a young spinner on the rise, so he answered some questions for El Niche Cache.
Neil Broom hit a century to give the Blackcaps another win over Bangladesh, so what does that mean for Broom moving forward? And um, Jeetan Patel's back in there.
Time to keep it 100% real about the Super Smash, which is taking place at the same time as our greatest kiwi cricketing minds are in Australia, helping BBL teams.
Sophie Devine went bonkers for Adelaide, smoking a big ol' century with 18 boundaries. Our other White Ferns aren't quite doing as well, plenty of WBBL cricket to come in the next few days though.
Big up to Tom Bruce and Ben Wheeler who thoroughly deserve their Blackcaps T20 call up. Henry Nicholls is the best Super Smash batsman though and we've been graced with more confusion from the Blackcaps selectors.
Tom Latham and Colin Munro hit them boundaries while the Blackcaps bowlers served up the bouncers, securing a first up win over Bangladesh ... who looked decent but were out-classed.
You all know who Shakib Al Hasan is, right? What about Bangladesh's gang of talented youngsters though? Get the down-low...
Bharat Popli was a gun last season but hasn't been knee-deep in the runs this season, he'll feature alongside a bunch of other kiwi cricketers with a chip on their shoulders for an Aotearoa XI to face Bangladesh.
Doug Bracewell's got all the tools, he just hasn't settled in international cricket and now a knee injury will see opportunities in The Stable go to our other seamers.
Henry Nicholls is leading all run-scorers in the Super Smash, while Tarun Nethula is dominating with the ball and some Colin de Grandhomme went bonkers.
