NZ unchanged for second netball Test

Silver Ferns coach Janine Southby has named an unchanged New Zealand side for the second Constellation Cup netball Test against Australia in Launceston.

The match will be New Zealand's first in Launceston in 30 years.

The series concludes with Tests in Auckland and Invercargill.
