The decision from Satterthwaite, New Zealand바카라s most capped women바카라s ODI player, came in after the country바카라s cricket board didn바카라t offer her a playing contract for the 2022-23 season. She made her New Zealand debut in 2007 and played 111 T20s and 145 ODIs for the White Ferns.

바카라It is with a degree of sadness that I announce my retirement from international cricket,바카라 said Satterthwaite, who was New Zealand바카라s full-time captain in 2018 and 2019. 바카라It has been a tough few days after learning of NZC바카라s decision to head in a new direction and contract some younger cricketers.바카라

Voicing disappointment, Satterthwaite believed she still has more to offer.

바카라I am disappointed not to be receiving a contract and believe I still had more to offer, however, I respect NZC바카라s decision and I wish the White Ferns all the best as they embark on an exciting winter of cricket, including the Commonwealth Games. I바카라ll be supporting them all the way,바카라 added the southpaw.

Satterthwaite plans to spend more time with her family during retirement but will continue playing at the domestic level with the Canterbury Magicians in New Zealand and Manchester Originals in the Women바카라s Hundred in August.

One of the greatest achievements for Satterthwaite in her entire career was her record-equalling four consecutive ODI tons in 2016-17. No other woman has ever achieved this feat and is only matched by former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara in the men바카라s game.

Satterthwaite, with 4639 runs, is also the second-highest run-getter in New Zealand women바카라s ODI cricket, and the seventh-highest of all-time. She has stuck seven centuries and 27 half-centuries besides also taking 50 ODI wickets.

In T20s, Satterthwaite is the third-highest run-scorer in New Zealand바카라s women바카라s cricket with 1784 runs. She still holds the best bowling figures for a New Zealander in women바카라s T20s with a 6/17 against England in 2007.

In the recently-concluded World Cup at home, Satterthwaite scored 175 runs from six games for New Zealand.
