England’s netballers have made it part of their mantra to have fun at this World Cup and their 56-48 defeat of Jamaica means they can
England have announced their intention to have fun at this World Cup, and now – for a few days at least – they truly can. This defeat of Jamaica here in Liverpool has effectively secured them a semi-final spot, in their first of this week’s matches. For Jamaica, however, it was almost certainly the end of the dream – after their surprise defeat to South Africa on Sunday it will be the first time since 1995 that they have not made it into the knockout rounds.
