Selby-Rickitt called into Silver Ferns

1:35 pm on 3 October 2013

The defender Te Huinga Reo Selby-Rickitt has been called into the Silver Ferns netball squad ahead of tomorrow night's test against Australia, as injury cover for Leana de Bruin.

Selby Rickitt was dropped from the squad ahead of the three tests against the Diamonds when coach Wai Taumaunu opted to bring an extra mid-courter.

But de Bruin has suffered a calf injury at training and while Taumaunu says the injury is not serious with three tests in the space of two weeks she wanted extra defensive cover if needed.

Selby-Rickit will join the Silver Ferns team in Adelaide later today.

The five test Constellation Cup series is level at one game all.
