England international Tash Farrant has suffered a reoccurrence of a stress fracture of the lumbar spine.

Farrant undertook an extensive rehab programme following the initial injury last May and returned to domestic action in April.

The South East Stars and Oval Invincibles left armer will now have an operation and will miss the remainder of the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and The Hundred.

Following surgery, she will begin rehabilitation working together with the England and South East Stars medical teams.
