The Fiji Pearls head coach Unaisi Rokoura says the team’s failure to capitalize on their possession cost them the game.
This is after they faced another defeat in the Netball World Cup, this time against the England Rose with a score of 89-28.
Rokoura acknowledges that England took advantage of their missed opportunities.
“We did not capitalize on our possession and that’s something coming into this game against England knowing that every possession we had on the ball, make sure capitalize it and worked it out on the court, and that’s where England took advantage of us.”
