Aotearoa Cricket's Golden Child: Kane Williamson (Intro)
May cricket's four Golden Children rise to distract us from the stupidity engulfing planet Earth.

Henry Nicholls can't do much more in domestic cricket, while Tom Bruce and Lockie Ferguson must be gunning for some Test cricket.
May the Blackcaps yo-yo selection policy continue...
Canterbury beat Wellington and the Firebirds must now face a Central Districts team that has Tom Bruce back at his brutal best.
Central Districts skipper Will Young hit a century and is finding some form at a crucial stage of the Ford Trophy campaign, plus the down-low on a brutal spinning assault.
Suzie Bates is in the White Ferns' T20 squad (obviously) to face the Aussies over there. Pop in to see how the White Ferns' strongest team might look...
Less info on the latest scorecards and a focus on George Worker and Scott Kuggeleijn, two lads who are going bonkers in the Ford Trophy.
Despite plenty hints to the contrary, Duco came out big to claim the purse bid for the Parker-Fury fight and ensure that it'll probably be hosted in NZ. With that comes a few relevant questions.
That third ODI in Hamilton was special and the Blackcaps had a few heroes. Dean Brownlie was one of them, just be happy that we've got a bloke like Brownlie because that hasn't always been the case.
Ish Sodhi is back in the Blackcaps squad for the third ODI - perhaps we've made a breakthrough in a traditional kiwi cricketing mindset? Perhaps not.
Tim Seifert and Henry Nicholls both went large while Michael Rippon is a Dutch-South African who is sneaking his way up the rankings for Otago with bat and ball.
Do you remember the days of good old fashioned death bowling? You know, thumping yorker after thumping yorker, dig that one out you muppet! Six in a row and that’s all it takes.
Early February in Melbourne, Australia begins the inaugural Nitro Athletics meet, a team-based track & field competition that’s being called the Twenty20 of athletics. Usain Bolt's gonna be there.
Sara McGlashan isn't really a White Fern anymore, she's a kiwi WBBL02 champion though.
An 18th title for Roger Federer, a valiant effort from Rafael Nadal, five gripping sets lasting into the night... yeah, this was a good one.
Who are these young jokers (Jack Hunter, Nick Kelly) doing things in domestic cricket? The usual suspects were at it in round five of the Ford Trophy as well...
Australia are in Aotearoa without David Warner and Steve Smith, they still have a very dangerous bowling attack though ... and a leggy!
Jeet Raval didn't quite get as many runs as you wanted ... it was that kinda series for our Blackcaps huh?
Amy Satterthwaite's Hobart Hurricanes have been knocked out of the WBBL02, but we've got Sara McGlashan vs Suzie Bates in the final.
Martin Guptill and Glenn Phillips went to boom-town, as did everyone else in the Auckland vs Central Districts game and Otago have a fresh Dutch international who goes alright.
