Birmingham 'hanging on the telephone' after Commonwealth deadline extendedpublished at 13:04 British Summer Time 6 October 2017
The Birmingham Commonwealth Games bid team say they're waiting to hear more from the federation that will decide which city is to host the 2022 Games after Birmingham's bid was deemed "not fully compliant".
Speaking in last month, GB rhythmic gymnast Mimi Cesar said having the 2022 Commonwealth Games in her home city of Birmingham would be "amazing" and would secure funding for her sport.
