    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?

    'This is the end for Neil Fachie'published at 17:01 BST

    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.

    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.

    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...

    Men's Tandem B Sprint

    James Ball couldn't hold the speed...

    Neil Fachie wins his sixth Commonwealth Games gold medal, from retirement to glory.

    It's silver for Wales and Ball, who had a half-second buffer and looked nailed on for the Games record after 500m but couldn't keep it going.

    In his final few days as an international athlete Fachie will stand on top of the podium alongside his pilot Aaron Pope, watching the saltire hoisted into the rafters while Flower of Scotland plays for the first time in the velodrome.

    That is some special sport.

    Kane Perris of Australia takes the bronze.
