The Women's World Cup is lurking on the horizon and Rachel Priest leads a trio of cricketers who might not get the attention of our superstars, they will be just as important though.
Neil Wagner isn't quite as good as Kumar Sangakkara is with the willow, he smacked a half-century for Essex though and looked kinda like Sangakkara in doing so.
Luke Ronchi top-scored for the Blackcaps against India, which doesn't ease concerns but does show hope for him as Martin Guptill's opening partner. And what do we do with all these all-rounders?
Tom Latham, Neil Broom and Ross Taylor finished the tri-series in style, but while the Blackcaps lost to Bangladesh, England and South Africa did precisely what the kiwis haven't done during this series.
James Franklin went toe-to-toe with the legend Kumar Sangakkara, while the Essex boys (Neil Wagner/Matt Quinn) played their part in a big win.
Ross Taylor and Tom Latham are preparing for Champions Trophy cricket by scoring plenty of runs as the Blackcaps handled their business against Ireland.
Neil Broom has scored the most runs in this tri-series against Ireland and Bangladesh, he just doesn't have a great record against better cricket teams.
Yup, youngster Amelia Kerr made the White Ferns World Cup squad but the return of Leigh Kasperek is far more interesting. Kasperek joins a White Ferns squad that aren't too far off 'favourites' for World Cup success.
Neil Wagner is too good for the Blackcaps and will instead continue to dominate on the Kiwi County Tour for Essex.
Aotearoa got the tri-series in Ireland off to a winning start, so peep our debrief; which players were selected? How's the wicket-keeping situation looking? Could Scott Kuggeleijn overtake Jimmy Neesham?
James Franklin continues to offer steady leadership for Middlesex, Jeetan Patel's Warwickshire aren't very good and Matt Quinn shed a tear when Neil Wagner ditched him.
While you were complaining about the fifty buck price tag of the Joseph Parker vs Razvan Cojanu fight, British boxing fans were tuning in for free on Sky Sports UK.
You know what? Shout out to Razvan Cojanu. He didn’t put up a huge amount of fight against Joseph Parker on the weekend but things were hardly stacked in his favour.
James Franklin's Middlesex hit a little snag and Lord Jeetz took some wickets but Warwickshire still suck. At least we've got Neil Wagner doing Neil Wagner for Essex on the Kiwi County Tour.
It wasn’t the fight we’d hoped to see, that’s for sure. Which is a shame because a New Zealand fighter defended a world title in comfortable, if not commanding, fashion in front of a local crowd in what will probably prove his last home fight for quite a while.
Matt Quinn is in fine form for Essex and Neil Wagner ain't going too bad either. The same can't be said for Lord Jeetz though.
Ask us a question and we might answer it: what can we expect from Luke Ronchi in the upcoming tri-series?
Neil Wagner can't get a Blackcaps ODI gig, so we'll happily take him in our Anti-Champions Trophy team along with other outcasts and promising youngsters.
Anthony Joshua now controls the heavyweight division. His thrilling comeback knockout of Wladimir Klitschko confirms that for all to see and with both the IBF and WBA belts in his possession, AJ is in a very enviable place.
Bharat Popli wasn't exactly as good as last season, but he still went alright and we're all about supporting the up and comers on the Niche Cache World Tour.
