Suzanne "Sue" Redfern (born 26 October 1977) is an English cricket umpire and former player. She played for the England women's cricket team between 1995 and 1999, including at the 1997 World Cup.

Born in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, Redfern began her county career with East Midlands in 1992, switching to Derbyshire in 1997 and Staffordshire in 2003, finally retiring after the 2008 season.[1] Her international career began in July 1995, at the age of 17, when she played European Championship matches against the Netherlands, Denmark, and Ireland.[2] Her Test debut came later in the year, against India.[3] Redfern's best performance for England came in a five-match One Day International (ODI) series against South Africa in August 1997. She was named player of the series, having taken nine wickets at an average of just 10.44, including 4/21 from ten overs in the first fixture.[4]

At the 1997 World Cup in India, Redfern played in only four of her team's seven matches, taking three wickets. Her final matches for England came at the age of 21, in July 1999, when she played in a single Test and a single ODI against India.[2][3] After retiring from playing, Redfern took up umpiring, initially standing only in local competitions.[5] In July 2015, she was part of the umpiring team for an ODI between Australia and England (part of the 2014–16 ICC Women's Championship), serving as fourth umpire.[6] Later in the year, it was announced that she would stand at the 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier in Thailand.[5]
