Sinagpore's Derek Wong leads 11-8 at the mid-game interval of the decider against Kashyap Parupalli of India.

Australian Rohan Dennis is wandering around the cobbled turn into Buchanan Street with a rip in his racesuit and a grimace on his face. He has taken a tumble and look like he needs a little encouragement if he is to continue.

Canada take advantage of the confusion, going off strong at the front.

Antony Stewart:, external Watching Peter Kennaugh's attack, I can only think he's covertly working for David Millar, to disintegrate the antipodean legs.

The way that Peter Kennaugh has gone about this race it seems Mark Cavendish, his makeshift team boss, believes you need only one World Tour rider to win this race.

That theory is going to be severely tested.

Kennaugh's advantage is up at 1:20, but only a quarter of the race has gone. I think he might come pinging back like he is on bungee elastic at some point.

England cyclist Lizzie Armitstead:, external "I just became Commonwealth Champion! Fantastic team race, very proud and grateful to the English girls! Thank you for all your support."

Armitstead, 25, won gold in the women's road race earlier today.

Injured Isle of Man cyclist Mark Cavendish:, external "In the team car for the men's Commonwealth Games road race. Truly believe you don't need six World Tour riders and the Isle of Man can win this."

Cavendish, 29, injured his shoulder on the opening day of the Tour de France in Yorkshire and is unable to race today.

Singapore's Derek Wong levels the final, taking the second game 21-11 against Kashyap Parupalli of India.

Leader Peter Kennaugh has had a visit from fellow Manxman Mark Cavendish in his team car. It looked like Cavendish, out injured after his crash in Harrogate earlier this summer, was getting animated.

Whether it was encouragement for Kennaugh or an inquisition as to what the heck he thinks he is up to was unclear.

Kennaugh has a minute and 12 seconds on the chasers after Remi Pelletier of Canada gave up the chase and dropped back.

India have been giving it a fair crack against the world champions but Australia remain ruthless, twice converting penalty corners through Chris Ciriello to lead 2-0 at half-time. A fifth successive Commonwealth gold looks highly likely.

Cameron Pilley and Kasey Brown come from a game down to beat New Zealand's Martin Knight and Joelle King 8-11 11-9 11-8 and win bronze.

The legendary rivalry between Australia and New Zealand is alive and well at the Hydro.

Four years ago in the Delhi final, the clash of the Antipodes lasted 84 minutes - the longest match in history after extra time - and the Kiwis won that by two.

The reigning Commonwealth champions had pushed ahead midway through the first quarter in Glasgow but the Kiwis have fought back to level at 14-14.

Wales' Jonathan Mould and Canada's Zachary Bell are the latest two riders to drop out of the race.

It isn't all glamour behind the scenes. Both are seated on fold-out chairs in tatty marquees as they unvelcro their cleets.

England captain Barry Middleton: "Four years ago, we lost to New Zealand on flick penalties so it's the other way around now.

"As an Englishman we're trying to turn the tide on the English losing in penalties. We've started to do it and the girls have started as well. We've got the ability and skill."

England coach Bobby Cructhley: "It was a very tough game for both teams. I'm happy the guys got rewarded with a bronze medal this time because we have finished fourth too many times."

"Peter Kennaugh is checking behind all the time now which is an interesting sign. I'm not sure if he is waiting for company or willing to let it go."

Andy Gilderdale:, external Can't figure out whether this is brave, reckless or downright crazy from Peter Kennaugh. Still, makes it interesting.

Peter Kennaugh comes through to complete his second lap in 41:38. Canada's Remi Pelletier is the closest man to him at 38 seconds back. His is a solo attempt to bridge the gap. The rest of the field are 49 seconds back.

What do you make of Peter Kennaugh's tactics? Surely he needs more of a cushion having so far to go and with his rivals all together? I think it tips from the brave into the foolhardy.

Scotland cyclist Katie Archibald:, external "Last 11 days have been tough. Went to bed at 7.30pm last night to cushion today's early start and seems to have worked, chuffed! Thanks for all the cheers and messages! Can't currently move from the floor but still hear shouting in my ears!"

Archibald, 20, finished seventh in the women's road race today, having won bronze in the 25km points race earlier in the Games. And generally proved to be one tough cookie.

Tina Turner's Rolling on the River has been belting out inside the Hydro - which is probably what many feel like they are doing on the streets of a very wet Glasgow at the moment.

It's the clash of the Antipodes here. New Zealand, who pipped England to the final, against favourites Australia, who overcame Jamaica.

Olympic 400m gold medal winner Christine Ohuruogu used to play netball at quite a high standard and has decided to stick around for the final after watching England lose. "Yeah, it's a shame for the England girls," she tells BBC Sport.

Kashyap Parupalli of India, the world number 22, takes the opening game of the men's singles final with Derek Wong of Singapore, ranked 40th, 21-14 in 15 minutes.

Leader Peter Kennaugh is still dancing solo in the spotlight. The Isle of Man rider has 40 seconds on his three closest pursuers, which include Peter Hawkins of Northern Ireland and Svein Tuft of Canada.

Chris and Gabby Adcock won gold in the badminton mixed doubles for England earlier today, beating compatriots Chris Langridge and Heather Olver 21-9 21-12.

Northern Ireland cyclist Michael Hutchinson:, external "Well, lots of cheery-looking riders dispatched from the pits into the rain for 160km of sliding around Glasgow."

Hutchinson, 40, is also a writer on cycling and competed in the Commonwealth men's road cycling time trial, placing 12th.
