Unbeaten Australian Diamonds face Silver Ferns at World Cup, their opponent in the past five finals.

Lisa Alexander has selection headaches and a fresh injury concern to contend with as Australia's title defence gets set to ramp up at the Netball World Cup.

Australia's Courtney Bruce takes on Malawi's Thandie Galleta in yet another lopsided win for the Diamonds in Liverpool.Their final preliminary match is against the also unbeaten New Zealand on Thursday before the medals are decided over the weekend, with England and South Africa most likely to be in the mix.

The loss was an 11-goal humbling in Hamilton last October, reminding the Diamonds that the Silver Ferns featuring veterans Laura Langman, Maria Folau and Casey Kopua can never be taken for granted. One certainty is Courtney Bruce, whose ruthless defence restricted Malawi to just five first-half goals and, eventually, their lowest World Cup score.
