Melbourne to host Australia v New Zealand netball Test

Netball fans jetting off on flights to Melbourne in October will have the opportunity to watch world champions Australia take on their fierce rivals New Zealand.

The two sides are due to meet at Hisense Arena on October 30th as part of the Holden Netball Test Series, with tickets for the match going on sale today (July 13th).

Australia's Diamonds and the Silver Ferns of New Zealand will be battling it out for the Constellation Cup, a trophy that represents the long-standing rivalry between the two teams.

It will be awarded in Melbourne to the side that has won the most games during the five-Test series.

Victoria's sports and recreation minister High Delahunty said: "I'm encouraging all sports fans to get behind this fantastic team and buy your tickets today to see superstars like Sharni [Layton] in action."

Passes for the match range in price from AU$50 to AU$75 (£33 to £50) for adults and AU$30 to AU$48 for children aged between four and 15.
