It was a really solid performance yesterday from KJT.

Her hurdles were a good start, she hasn't got the speed she used to have but it was a strong start.

She's putting herself in good position for a gold medal.

There is a kind of festival vibe around Alexander Stadium with food stalls, activities for the kids and grass to lounge on.

Inside the arena, it is a jam-spangler of a day. The early rain has cleared, the flags are flying and the sky is blue. And the daily daytime fireworks have gone off to bring some Holi-style colour to the scene.

Katarina Johnson-Thompson and the rest of the eight-strong heptathlon field are first out into the fresh air. Those multi-eventers work hard for their precious metal.

KJT leads the standings by 109 points after four events. Long jump - one of her strongest events - is first on the menu for Wednesday.

Nicely done by Victoria Ohuruogu.

The British champion comes past Malawi's Asimenye Simwaka in the final straight to take the win in 51.34 seconds, ahead of Jamaica's Junelle Bromfield.

Simwaka holds on for third with a personal best run.

The first event of the day on the track at Alexander Stadium is the women's 400m heats.

We'll have four races, with the first three in each heat - as well as the next fastest four - advancing to the semi-finals.

British champion Victoria Ohuruogu, the younger sister of 2006 Commonwealth champion Christine, goes in heat one.

In heat two, Nicole Yeargin competes for Scotland, while heat three features England’s Jodie Williams and Scotland’s Zoey Clark.

The final heat sees world 800m bronze medallist Mary Moraa, who is doubling up in Birmingham, alongside Ama Pipi of England.

There's action in the pool this morning with the heats of the men's 200m individual medley at 10:30 BST, followed by heats in the women's 400m freestyle at 10:44 BST and then heats for the men's 4x100m medley relay at 11:10 BST.

Scotland's Duncan Scott goes in the men's 200m individual medley, and he's already had a great games - picking up four medals (gold in the 200m freestyle and bronzes in the 100m freestyle, 400m individual medley and 4x200m freestyle relay) to become Scotland's most decorated athlete with 11 medals overall after six in 2018 and one in 2014.

Scott picked up an Olympic silver medal in this category in Tokyo and his main rival could well be England's Tom Dean. Dean has already won five silvers in Birmingham - in the 100m freestyle, 200m freestyle, men's 4x100m freestyle, men's 4x200m freestyle and mixed 4x100m freestyle relay - but is still chasing his first Commonwealth gold.

Australia are through to the knockout stages after defeating Scotland 2-0 at the University of Birmingham.

Scotland were defensively strong for much of the match but goals from Grace Stuart and Shanea Tonkin mean they are now out of the games.

The Hockeyroos are still yet to concede a goal in the competition.

Missed any of yesterday's heptathlon action?

Here's how England's Katarina Johnson-Thompson ensured she held the overnight lead after four events.

It was a solid first day for reigning heptathlon champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson.

A season’s bests in both the high jump and shot put, and a lead of 109 points from Northern Ireland’s Kate O'Connor. Not bad at all.

Australian Taneille Crase sits third, two points ahead of England’s Holly Mills.

Her season’s best long jump of 6.37m is 27cm further than O’Connor has ever managed, although the 21-year-old has a far superior javelin and is a good 800m runner.

Aussie Crase is a modest long jumper too, whoch could offer Mills a chance to move into the top three.

Australia now lead Scotland 2-0.

Shanea Tonkin found herself completely unmarked and was able to slot it past Scotland goalkeeper Amy Gibson.

It means Scotland now need to score three goals in the final quarter if they're to have the chance of staying in the games.

There are gold medals. And then there are historic, buzzer-beating gold medals.

Watch as Myles Hesson made the winning two-point shot to clinch 3x3 basketball gold for England in a 17-16 win over Australia.

There were gold medals for England's Hannah Cockroft and Emmanuel Oyinbo-Coker, and Wales' Olivia Breen on the track last night.

We're back underway here in the third quarter at the University of Birmingham.

Australia's goal has now been attributed to Grace Stewart, as she got the smallest of touches on Shanea Tonkin's shot.

Scotland are to face another half of high press from the Hockeyroos but can they get themselves back into the game?

The athletics and swimming action gets under way from 10:30 BST today.

On the track, England's Katarina Johnson-Thompson will continue the defence of her heptathlon title in the long jump, before the javelin and 800m tonight.

In the final day of swimming competition, Scotland's Duncan Scott is among those in action in the men's 200m Individual Medley heats.

Elsewhere, we'll visit Cannock Chase Forest for the first time as the mountain bike cycling begins.

Meanwhile, Alice Kinsella was able to recover from disappointment in earlier events to take gold in the floor event.

Here's how she claimed women's floor gold medal, with fellow Englishwoman Ondine Achampong taking silver.

Scotland trail 1-0 at half-time, after Shanea Tonkin put Australia ahead late in the second quarter.

Despite Amy Costello seeing off Australia's penalty corner, quick-play from the Hockeyroos saw them attack again with Tonkin finding the back of the net.

Scotland now have all to play for in the second-half of this game.
