Following the launch of the updated World Netball rankings on Monday, five further teams have been invited to take part - Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, England and Uganda.
In the latest rankings, Australia retain their position as the No 1 team in the world followed by New Zealand's Silver Ferns. Jamaica then jump ahead of England to secure third place, as a result of the Sunshine Girls' historic run at the Commonwealth Games.
After fourth-placed England, South Africa occupy fifth and Uganda sixth.
