    She'll be padding up either way but whether it's hockey or cricket is still to be determined for Canterbury's Kirsty Nation

    She'll be padding up either way but whether it's hockey or cricket is still to be determined for Canterbury's Kirsty Nation


    The 26-year-old made her international debut for the Black Sticks in goal in last week's four-test series against Australia.

    Nation's become a regular for the Canterbury Magicians women's cricket team in the summer.

    But she says at present - hockey is the focus with the World Cup and Commonwealth Games looming.
