The 2021 Taini Jamison Trophy Series, also known as the 2021 Cadbury Netball Series, was the 12th Taini Jamison Trophy series. It featured New Zealand playing England in three netball test matches, played in September 2021. All three tests were played at Christchurch Arena.[1][2][3][4] New Zealand won the opening test 48–42.[5][6] However, England won the series 2–1 after winning the final two tests, 55–45 and 49–45 respectively. In both the second and third tests, England launched second half comebacks before emerging as winners. It was the first time that England had won a series in New Zealand and the first time they won the Taini Jamison Trophy. The England team were coached by Jess Thirlby and captained by Serena Guthrie.[7][8][9][10][11][12] The series was broadcast live on Sky Sport in New Zealand and on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom and Ireland. In New Zealand, TVNZ 2 also broadcast the matches with a one hour delay.[4][13][14][15]
