    Wellington Blaze coach Jonny Bassett-Graham is certain Georgia Plimmer can maintain her great form...even without opening partner Amelia Kerr

    Wellington Blaze coach Jonny Bassett-Graham is certain Georgia Plimmer can maintain her great form...even without opening partner Amelia Kerr


    The pair have scored more than 300 runs between them in their first three Super Smash matches of the season, but the pair have been split by Kerr's exit to play in the Indian Premier League.

    Bassett-Graham says the 21-year-old Plimmer has the ability to kick on...even without her usual captain.



    The top-of-the-table Blaze tackle the Hearts in Auckland tomorrow.
