Helen Housby will target more success against Australia after helping England into the Quad Series final.

The Cumbrian played her part in successive victories for the Vitality Roses over the weekend.

England enjoyed a 71-47 win over South Africa on Saturday before edging past New Zealand 49-46.

It secured a place in the Grand Final - and a showdown with the Australian Diamonds in London's Copper Box Arena.

The emphatic win over South Africa, the biggest in Quad Series history, saw Housby, from Drumleaning near Wigton, display some accurate shooting as the home national built a dominant lead.

The 26-year-old then produced some crucial finishing to help England get the better of the Silver Ferns, as they came from eight goals down to stage a fightback.

Housby scored 24 of her 25 shots in the dramatic victory for Jess Thirlby's team.

Tomorrow's final is a repeat of the famous 2018 Commonwealth Games gold medal clash, when Housby dramatically scored in the final seconds to win it for England.

Tomorrow's game is the latest step in England's preparations to defend their Commonwealth title in Birmingham this year.

Head coach Thirlby said: "The way we had to play [the New Zealand] game and the way in which New Zealand forced us to play a little bit is a great preparation for a match against the Diamonds.”

Australia coach Stacey Marinkovich added: “England have been playing some really classy netball, they’ve got depth and experience across the squad and it’s a challenge for everyone."
