Australia Kelpies win Test series against England Thorns

After defeating England Thorns 62-30 at the Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham to take a 2-0 lead, Australia’s men’s netball team won the Aurora Series.

The three-test series is the first that Australia has hosted in England.

On May 25, the Thorns suffered a well-fought second defeat at the Copper Box Arena in London, losing the opener 63-34.

Although the hosts were initially competitive at the beginning, Australia’s dominant performance in the final two quarters sealed the series and its success.

However, Australia’s Kelpies increased their lead to 27-15 at the break and took command with a 47-21 lead going into the third quarter.

Although their rivals have been competing on the international stage since the 1980s, England’s men only recently played their first international game in 2022.

The Kelpies, led by the impressive Josh Byron, extended their lead in the fourth quarter, demonstrating that experience and quality.
