What would your Women's XI for 2017 look like?

Considering the relative dearth of international games in women's cricket, and the primacy of the limited-overs formats, our nominees have been arrived at based on their exploits in ODIs and T20 cricket played at both international and domestic levels. In a field featuring world record-holders of all sorts, across roles, there is a genuine problem of plenty when it comes to picking from these nominees. How different would your XI look from the one picked by our staffers?

2017 was the year when ODI cricket's first triple-hundred opening partnership was put together. Both those openers are part of our nominees, although Deepti Sharma's exploits with the ball earn her a spot in the allrounders' category. With that in mind, what would your ideal opening combination be?

The highest run-getter in women's ODIs, the batsman with the most hundreds in the game, England's World Cup-winning captain and Ashes Player of the Series, are all part of our nominees. You can pick up to four of them to make up your middle order.

Will your side feature Dane van Niekerk, 2017's highest wicket-taker in women's internationals? Or will you opt for the likes of Ellyse Perry and Deepti Sharma? Each one of these four allrounders could slot into your middle order, so pick as many as you need to balance your side.

Three of the world's best behind the stumps. Take your pick.

Considering the riches on offer in the categories above, does your side need a specialist spinner at all? In any case, our four nominees together cover all bases: the offie, the leggie and the slow left-armer. Take your pick (or two) from the list below.

South Africa's two seamers, Shabnim Ismail and Marizanne Kapp, Australia's Megan Schutt and India's Shikha Pandey complete our list of nominees. Which two (or three) of them would you choose to strike with the ball?
