Four from Otago in White Ferns

Otago's Suzie Bates, Leigh Kasperek, Katey Martin and Morna Nielsen have been named in the White Ferns squad for the tour of South Africa in October.

Wellington middle-order batsman Liz Perry missed the cut after battling a shoulder injury over the winter months but is likely to be back in the frame for the White Ferns’ summer schedule.

The squad features the recall of top-order batsman Sam Curtis and swing bowler Holly Huddleston.

The White Ferns will play 18 ODIs and just four T20s between now and the start of the ICC Women’s Cricket World 2017.

The White Ferns will assemble for a pre-tour camp in Tauranga next month, before heading to South Africa, where they will play seven ODIs, the first three of which carry ICC International Women’s Championship points.
