    Experienced White Ferns batter Suzie Bates has been sidelined until March

    Experienced White Ferns batter Suzie Bates has been sidelined until March


    Scans have revealed the 38-year-old suffered a torn quad muscle while fielding for Otago in a domestic one-day match last month.

    The recovery timeline means Bates will be unavailable for the remainder of the domestic home summer and for New Zealand's home series against Zimbabwe in February.

    Bates says she's committed to being available for the White Ferns T20 and ODI series against South Africa in March.
