Molyneux returns for England semi v New Zealand

Vicky Molyneux returns to England's 19-strong squad ahead of Monday's World Cup semi-final against New Zealand at the York Community Stadium.

Wigan Warriors forward Molyneux missed England's final group game against PNG, but returns in place of Carrie Roberts.

Molyneux was named player of the match in England's dominant 54-4 Group A victory against Canada.

England head into their semi-final in decent form, having gone unbeaten during the group stage, with Richards previously making five changes for the PNG game.

Richards' side reached the semi-final having topped Group A with an unbeaten run thanks to dominant wins over Brazil, Canada and PNG.

New Zealand finished second in Group B, having narrowly lost 10-8 to Australia in York on Thursday.

Monday's game will be the second part of a double-header at the York Community Stadium, with Australia taking on PNG in the other semi-final earlier that day (17:00 GMT).

The women's final will also take place as a double-header, just before the final of the men's tournament at Old Trafford in Manchester on Saturday, 19 November.
