    They've claimed their second win of netball's ANZ Premiership after beating the Mystics 64-63 in extra time at Christchurch.

    Selby-Rickit slotted the winning goal with 10 seconds left.

    Jane Watson and Karin Burger had the job of containing Mystics shooter Grace Nweke .

    Selby-Rickit says the pair pounced.



    The Mystics remain second on 11 points, the Tactix are fourth on seven.

    Meanwhile, the bottom-placed Magic have lost 61-49 to the undefeated Stars in Tauranga.

    Mid-courter Georgie Edgecombe says there was proof when her side sticks to the game plan it can pay off.
