Jesse Ryder is set to miss New Zealand's opening World Twenty20 Super Eights match against Ireland at Trent Bridge on Thursday as he undergoes hospital treatment.The 24-year-old opening batsman missed New Zealand's one-run loss in their final group match against South Africa at Lord's on Tuesday and is staying in London to have tests to determine the nature of an ongoing muscle pain.
New Zealand team manager Dave Currie said: "Jesse is continuing to suffer serious discomfort and has been admitted to hospital for observation and further tests, which we hope will provide a clearer picture of his condition."
The Black Caps also have ongoing concerns regarding the fitness of captain Daniel Vettori, who has yet to play in this tournament because of a shoulder injury, and batsman Ross Taylor, who appeared to sustain a hamstring strain against South Africa.
