    So, England face defending champions New Zealand this morning for a place in the Netball World Cup final.

    If they succeed in reaching the last two it will be the first time they have ever done so.

    They won a silver medal in 1975 but the tournament was in a round robin format then and therefore there was no final.

    The Roses come into this semi-final off the back of that incredible first ever win over Australia at a World Cup (I'm still not over that, by the way).

    England have already made history at this tournament, can they go and make some more?
