In metaphoric terms, it was very much a case of women versus girls, although the contest achieved its purpose for Wildcats, a mainly youthful group who are essentially the Scotland national team squad, in terms of exposing them to what they can expect at the highest level as they prepare to try to qualify for the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. That, at least, was the view of Fiona Metcalfe, the former Scotland captain who was commentating on yesterday's match for Quipu TV, which is providing live streaming of the tournament organised by Netball Scotland in conjunction with Glasgow Life.
