Team Bath Netball made it three wins on the spin to top the Superleague table after three rounds.

Bath beat Wasps 44-39 in a thrilling, hard fought match to go three points clear at the Superleague summit.

Anna Mayes' side have totalled 153 points in wins over Celtic Dragons (61-29) Loughborough Lightning (48-44) and Wasps. 

England international Sophie Drakeford-Lewis was in outstanding form for Bath earning player of match plaudits.  

The blue and golds' next game is a top of the table clash against reigning champions Manchester Thunder on Friday March 12 (1915).

Second placed Thunder - who play Severn Stars next Sunday (1200) - have already swept past Strathclyde Sirens 53-36 and London Pulse 57-30.

Welsh side Celtic Dragons are still seeking their first win - after four games - following a 42-34 defeat by Surrey Storm.  

Dragons return to action against sixth placed Saracens Mavericks next Monday (1715).
