    This is do or die now for England. They need to win by five or more and they’re letting Australia creep back in. We’ve focused a lot on that shooting end but if Neville’s side are to win the Quad Series for the first time, their defence has to come up with turnovers in this final 10.

    Q4: England 44-44 Australia

    Is this a risk? Young Fran Williams has come on at goal defence. Big chance for her.

    Tracey Neville has well and truly rolled the dice here.

    Scores even. 10 minutes to play

    Oh no! Sloppy play from England and Australia have the backline pass.

    One goal in it now.

    Q4: England 44-42 Australia

    That's the consolidated shot from Australia they needed.

    England's lead has been chopped in an instant.

    Break in the game as the ball has gone rogue...

    Q4: England 44-41 Australia

    Nothing on for Nat Haythornthwaite but she finally finds Serena Guthrie breaking free.

    In it goes to Harten, in pops the shot..but seconds later she misses on England's centre pass. Australia pull one back.

    England on the board first in the final period.

    Rachel Dunn sinks a tough chance and Jo Harten likes it.

    This will be a test of fitness and composure in the final quarter.

    Both of these sides had physical contests yesterday, but Australia were afforded slightly more rest between the games. Will that make a difference?

    England look more lively today. They know that they can win the trophy today, but more than that they want to send a message to their old foe Australia.

    Q3: England 41-37 Australia

    England look to have done a sterling job on analysing Australia's play as they are reading the game so well so far in this game.

    They are playing their own game well but also forcing errors from the Diamonds.

    England hold their lead going in to the final break.

    England will still be focused on the job in hand, trying to put Australia under intense pressure and prevent them getting to the edge.

    Q3: England 41-37 Australia

    Australia are looking far less imposing in defence in this game. Are they missing Courtney Bruce?

    Gretel Tippet nest another...they're still very much in this.

    Q3: England 40-34 Australia

    Australia staying in touch but England sticking to their own gameplan.

    Layla Guscoth gets in on the act and gets the steal, she passes to Eboni Usuro-Brown and England neatly work the ball to the shooters.

    Three minutes to go in Q3.

    Q3: England 37-33 Australia

    Of 75 times these teams have met, Australia have won 69 times.

    Will this be England's seventh win over the Diamonds?

    Q3: England 36-32 Australia

    Gretel Tippet does a Rachel Dunn there a takes a lofted pass in to her chest, turns and scores.

    England reply again at the other end via Jo Harten.

    Just under six minutes to go in this period.

    Australia are looking rattled. They are not a settled team and I think there are some doubts around their play when they come under scoreboard pressure.

    Q3: England 34-30 Australia

    The pace has slowed down a little, enforced by Australia as they switch to plan B, but England appear to have already worked that one out.

    Geva Mentor with another tip but the ball falls to Jo Maloney at centre.

    The Diamonds reset and eventually score. They're not looking as calm as they did in the first quarter.

    Q3: England 33-27 Australia

    Jo Harten launches an absolute rocket pass over everyone's heads, as Rachel Dunn pops up and takes it.

    She turns and scores one-footed. Nice stuff.

    Serena Guthrie with a timely intercept on the edge of the Australia shooting circle and England take advantage at the other end.

    Six goals the lead now.

    They can't can they?!

    Australia are a huge team, but a lot of the 2015 World Cup winners are no longer in the squad. They are still trying to solidify some of their positions and work out which of the new combinations work best.

    Q3: England 30-26 Australia

    Jamie-Lee Price can't find Steph Wood with her feed and Geva Mentor has it on the backline.

    England steam the ball through court to Jo Harten, who scores.
