The Silver Ferns failed to reclaim the Constellation Cup after suffering a 53-46 loss in the final test of the trans-tasman series in Perth. With the Diamonds taking full advantage of the Ferns' sluggish attacking start, Taurua summoned Ekenasio to the court, returning to her Netball World Cup-winning combination. Not granting the Ferns enough opportunity to catch-up, Bassett sealed the Diamonds' win before wrapping her hands around the trophy once again.
