    Silver Ferns happy to come through physical encounter against Barbados

    The Silver Ferns are happy to have come through a physical encounter against Barbados at the Netball World Cup in Liverpool


    New Zealand has won 78-25, off the back of a strong defensive effort which included 18 intercepts.

    Coach Noeline Taurua says the score doesn't reflect the battle that occurred on court.

    She says things were torrid out there, but they kept toiling away.
