Jess Thirlby has warned her England players that they are the team everyone wants to beat in the Netball Nations Cup, live on Sky Sports, and they 'must work super hard' to secure the trophy. England kickstart their Nations Cup campaign against the world No 7 team Malawi on Saturday February 1, live on Sky Sports, while the tournament also includes South Africa and Uganda.

England fought hard in Australia, eventually suffering a 2-1 series defeat following a decisive 69-56 loss, with Thirlby taking plenty of positives from her team's performances against the world's elite team.
