Profile

Hamish Rutherford, the son of former New Zealand captain Ken, made an immediate impact on the international scene when he scored 171 in his debut Test, against England in Dunedin. A solid opening batsman, Hamish bats left-handed, unlike his father, and also had a Test debut which was a stark contrast to his dad's - Ken had bagged a pair on Test debut, against West Indies in 1985, and scored 12 runs in seven innings in that series.
