Jemimah Rodrigues can be anything you want her to be. Her seven-something rollercoaster years in international cricket are proof. She can fill in for a veteran, as most careers begin. She can replace another, as most careers progress. And she can adapt to bat out of position, as most careers evolve in a national set-up….
