I don't think you can use indirect for this
=sum(rng1) will work

I was trying to use the indirect command to sum a named
range of cells. If I enter the following in a cell then
the formula works if the text in the cell refers to a
contiguous range. If I change the range to be non-
contiguous, it gives a #ref error in the cell.
Cell contents
=+SUM(INDIRECT(I66))
I66 has the string "rng1" which is a named range on the
current worksheet.
Does anyone have any idea of any work around?
