    Giiving autographs and playing in front of big crowds is something New Zealand female cricketers are still getting use to


    Auckland Hearts player Holly Huddleston says for the first time in her domestic career, she saw spectators queuing up to see her side play against the Northern Spirit last weekend.

    She says more people are being exposed to the women's game.
