Australian coach Norma Plummer has sprung a surprise in her
15-player squad for upcoming Tests against Jamaica and New Zealand
by dropping experienced defender Bianca Chatfield.
The Melbourne Vixens star missed out on selection behind Queensland
Firebird Amy Steel, who is in line to make her international debut
for the Diamonds next month.
But the squad is certainly not lacking in experience with Sharelle
McMahon, Mo'onia Gerrard, Catherine Cox and Natalie von Bertouch
also selected.
Australia begins their international season with a three-Test
series against Jamaica starting in Melbourne on August 8, before
taking on New Zealand in Adelaide on August 29.
Australian squad: Kate Beveridge, Madison Browne,
Rebecca Bulley, Catherine Cox, Susan Fuhrmann, Laura Geitz, Mo'onia
Gerrard, Kimberlee Green, Renae Hallinan, Sharelle McMahon (capt),
Natalie Medhurst, Lauren Nourse, Susan Pratley, Amy Steel, Natalie
von Bertouch.
