India vs Jamaica in netball at the 2010 Commonwealth Games.

Netball was one of 17 sports that were contested at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi. Netball is a core sport for women at the Commonwealth Games, and one of only three events in the 2010 programme for women only (the other two are rhythmic gymnastics and synchronised swimming). Netball at the Commonwealth Games is one of the premier events in international netball, and the 2010 event was the fourth time that the sport has been contested at the Games. Matches were held between 4–14 October at the Thyagaraj Sports Complex.

Twelve participating nations were divided into two pools. After the preliminary matches, Australia and Jamaica progressed to the medal playoffs from Pool A, while New Zealand and England advanced from Pool B. The bronze medal for the event was won by England, who defeated Jamaica in the bronze medal playoff. The gold medal match was contested between Australia and New Zealand. After going into double extra-time, New Zealand won the gold medal, defeating Australia 66–64. The final went on for 84 minutes, the longest ever official game.
