Taurua believes the scrappy contest against South Africa, winless in this tournament, will keep the Ferns grounded as they strive to complete the largely impressive start to their new era. "I'm glad we grinded it out and went toe-to-toe it got pretty close there with South Africa coming back," Taurua said. While her stats were well down Wilson's presence for the final quarter, where she linked with fellow inexperienced shooter Selby-Rickit, provided a sense of clam.
