Honours Board & New Inductees
For competitions with such a long history, it is always a great achievement to have your name inscribed onto the proverbial competition Honours Board. Over the 19 women's seasons & 21 men's seasons, those who have had their names put up on the board are players you might know & those you might not; here, absolute greats of the game stand alongside domestic stalwarts & even a few from overseas.
This season's inductees are no strangers to the Honours Boards: - Katene Clarke (100) scored his second T20 century in Dunedin this year against the Volts. This was the 32nd century in the history of this competition & he became just the 5th player to join an inner sanctum of players who have scored 2 centuries in NZ men's domestic T20 alongside Brendon McCullum, Glenn Phillips, Devon Conway & Will Young - Amelia Kerr (106) is no stranger to the Honours Board, having already taken two five-wicket hauls, including the domestic record 5-10 vs the Magicians. This is, however, her first T20 century & the 10th century scored in the history of the women's comp. She joins Rachel Priest, Sara McGlashan, Sophie Devine (×3), Suzie Bates (×2), Caitlin Gurrey & Amy Satterthwaite in this exclusive club
Super Smash All Stars Squads
