All-rounder, Dottin stands tall on all-rounders’ list
As Windies won the three-match T20Is against Pakistan 2-1, their all-rounder, Deandra Dottin stood out as the star performer. Though she moved up two places to be at the third position in the batswomen rankings after scoring 158 runs in the series, the equation is different on the all-rounders’ list. As she also took three wickets, she rose in the bowlers’ chart to the 29th position. However, the complete performance saw her leading the all-rounders’ list.
