Scotland's Neil Fachie and pilot Aaron Pope head to the middle of the rostrum with James Ball and Matt Rotherham of Wales on one side and Kane Perris and Luke Zaccaria of Australia on their otther.

The Australians are the first to receive their bronze medals before Ball and Rotherham are presented with silver, to match the one Ball won at Birmingham 2022.

There's a medal podium in the centre of the track... the middle step is blue.

Feels appropriate...

After well over an hour of frantic action on the track, we're going to have a brief interlude to dish out some medals.

Get the hankies at the ready...

Fair play to crash like that 20 minutes ago and come back to ride at 61.235km/h like that.

Huge cheers from the appreciative Glasgow crowd for riders Jess Gallagher, Jacqueline Mengler-Mohr, Emma Foy, Jessie Hodges.

Ciara Oliva has just popped over to the static bikes and planted a kiss on her husband Lewis who is warming up for the men's team sprint bronze medal contest.

Part one done for the Welsh family, can he repeat her achievement?

After that nasty crash on their last attempt, Australia's Jess Gallagher and pilot Jacqueline Mengler-Moore flew out of the blocks in the second race of three, only for the New Zealand tandem of Emma Foy and pilot Jessie Hodges to dig deep and come back to pip them on the line and make it 1-1.

We'll go to a deciding race for gold, and it should be a humdinger, given what we have seen so far.

It's two medals from two events so far at the velodrome for Wales, with at least one more but possibly three!

The chants of "Wales, Wales, Wales" ring out.

What a ride from the team.

One half of the Oliva family with a bronze for Ciara, can Lewis repeat the feat later?

Scotland's gold medallist Neil Fachie, speaking to TNT Sports: "I knew what to expect, it doesn't make for any less pressure.

"I didn't think we were going to win today, so that is extra special.

"I came out retirement for this race, it has been an absolute privilege and joy to race with [pilot Aaron Pope].

"He is the future of tandem sprinting, I am definitely not. This is the end for Neil Fachie, one more race at the weekend."

Wales absolutely obliterated the English team, who were very stretched across that last kilometre.

It's bronze for Megan Barker, Anna Morris, Ciara Oliva and Jess Roberts with England’s Josie Knight, Madelaine Leech, Grace Lister and Abigail Miller having to settle for fourth.

Their time was just 0.6s off the Commonwealth Games record.

Australia and New Zealand will set their sights on that in the gold medal final in a moment.

Wales absolutely obliterated the English team, who were very stretched across that last kilometre.

Their time was just 0.6s off the Commonwealth Games record.

Going into the final 1,000m and the Wales lead has swollen to over two seconds.

Over at the Hydro, Northern Ireland are playing Australia in what is their final netball pool match of these Commonwealth Games.

They have lost every game in Glasgow so far, and unfortunately, this one seems to be headed in the same direction. They trail 47-10 at the halfway mark.

The lead has stretched to over a second and England have dropped one of the four riders with just over half the race gone.

Wales are just over half a second ahead of England after one quarter of the race... starting fast and building on it.

England face Wales in the bronze medal match-up.

Wales were faster in qualifying but this will be a ding-dong battle.

We're off...

After a strong morning of riding for Wales, they'll contest for five medals on the track tonight.

Two of those races feature married couple Lewis and Ciara Oliva who came out of retirement to compete in Glasgow.

They called it a day after Gold Coast 2018, but they're back on the track with their three children Florence, Digby and Ottilie watching with their grandparents from the stands.

Ciara rides in the women's team pursuit bronze medal race for Wales against England while Lewis is in the team sprint bronze medal race against Trinidad and Tobago.

Welsh sprint cyclist Steffan Lloyd was with his hands on his head there watching that back on the screen as he warms up near us in the mixed zone.

There was a collective grimace in the velodrome.

Nasty, nasty collision.

Oh no.

A dreadful crash in the second race of the gold medal final.

Australia's Jess Gallagher wobbled out of the blocks and careered into the New Zealand tandem of Emma Foy and wiped them out on the first corner.

Medical teams are on hand. Those floors are hard.

They are all back on their feet, which is great news...

The world champion adds a Commonwealth bronze to her collection.

Lizzi Jordan and her pilot Sylvia Misztal hold off Sophie Unwin and pilot Anna Whitworth-Hay to secure a 2-0 win in the best-of-three series.
