Blackpool’s Eleanor Cardwell was part of the England netball squad which had a win and a defeat in the Vitality Netball Nations Cup at the weekend.

They made a winning start to their campaign on Saturday, recording a 62-56 win against Uganda at Wembley Arena.

Cardwell scored with 31 of her 33 attempts during England’s victory against the She Cranes.

However, Sunday saw a 61-59 defeat against Australia in a repeat of last year’s World Cup final.

Positives from World Cup

England had trailed by five at half-time before recovering to open up a two-goal lead going into the final period.

Victory made it two from two for Australia, who had beaten New Zealand 63-50 in their first game.

With New Zealand then defeating Uganda 65-60, it means England must beat the Silver Ferns to book their place in the final.

Those final round-robin games are played at Leeds’ First Direct Arena on Saturday, with the third-placed play-off and final at the same venue 24 hours later.
