The year may be drawing to a close but there is still international netball left to be played. Friday sees the first game of a three match test series between England and Malawi.
With the Commonwealth Games on the horizon early next year, both England and Malawi will want to conclude their respective year on a high note; taking as much momentum forward into the new year. Both teams will get to know each other very well in the coming months as they have been drawn in the same pool for the Games in the Gold Coast.
Currently ranked 6th in the INF World Rankings, Malawi travel to the UK with star shooter Mwai Kumwenda in the squad. World number three England, will be lead out by captain Ama Agbeze.
