    England 13-14 New Zealand

    Now then, is that a crucial moment? New Zealand earn a turnover and take the lead with 10 seconds on the clock for quarter one. that could be a big moment in shifting the momentum in this bronze medal match.

    Until then, it was feeling a little flat. 15 minutes down.

    The crowd are still cheering England's every move at the NEC, but the loudest chant is actually one of 'defence' in support of New Zealand.

    I think they've got a few family members in who are bringing the noise.

    England 8-8 New Zealand

    We really are going goal for goal here at the NEC, neither team have managed to find that turnover to get out of this rut.

    Ellie Cardwell is cutting it fine with the three seconds and that is where we might see an opening for New Zealand. But for now it's as you were.

    Wales' Geraint Thomas, English trio Fred Wright, Ben Turner and Sam Watson, Scotland's Sean Flynn and Sean Crockett, and Northern Ireland's Matthew Teggart are among a leading group that has managed to break up the main peloton.

    They've got a decent advantage now of around 18 seconds to the main group.

    Sarah-Jane Perry and Alison Waters of England are through to the squash women's doubles final after coming from behind to beat Malaysian pair Rachel Arnold and Aifa Azman in their semi-final.

    The pair will face New Zealand's Joelle King and Amanda Landers-Murphy in the final tomorrow after a 8-11, 11-6, 11-9 win.

    Birmingham-born Perry will now have the chance to try and better the silver she won in the singles last year.

    England 1-1 New Zealand

    Here we go then. Laura Malcolm gets us underway and England take it straight to goal, New Zealand do the same on their centre pass and I think we may be going like this for quite a while.

    It is definitely a bit quieter at the NEC than yesterday.

    This is not the match England would have wanted to play today, but the crowd are doing their best to bring the energy.

    They've been dancing solidly for the last 20 minutes.

    Usoro-Brown to retirepublished at 13:29 British Summer Time 7 August 2022

    England v New Zealand (13:30 BST)

    This morning England defender Eboni Usoro-Brown has announced she will retire from netball after this Commonwealth Games to spend more time with her family and pursue her career in law. Usoro-Brown has made 116 caps for England, winning Commonwealth gold and bronze and three World Cup bronze medals.

    That means two of England's most experienced defenders will not put on the Roses dress again after today, Stacey Francis-Bayman also announced her retirement earlier this year.

    The Australian team is trying to shut down an attack, with a group of 10 riders just out in front.

    It looks like this one will also be brought back. Nothing doing so far...

    England's Eleanor Cardwell returns to the starting side for their bronze-medal match against New Zealand.

    Cardwell was benched in favour of the more experienced Jo Harten for the defending champions' semi-final defeat to Australia yesterday.

    But their roles are reversed today as Cardwell partners Helen Housby in the shooting circle.

    Laura Malcolm starts too, replacing Stacey Francis-Bayman at wing defence.

    New Zealand: Nweke, Selby-Rickit, Crampton (capt), Souness, Heffernan, Karaka, Jury.

    England: Cardwell, Housby, Metcalf (capt), Clarke, Malcolm, Guscoth, Mentor.

    England must go againpublished at 13:24 British Summer Time 7 August 2022

    England v New Zealand (13:30 BST)

    England might be facing the world champions but will take comfort in the fact that they have already beaten them in the group stage at this Commonwealth Games.

    The Roses secured a comfortable 54-44 victory over the Silver Ferns to finish top of Pool B, but it will be a tough ask for Jess Thirlby to pick up her side after a disappointing performance yesterday.

    Having not managed to secure a medal for the first ever on the Gold Coast four years ago, New Zealand will be up for this one.

    England v New Zealand (13:30 BST)

    It wasn't to be yesterday for England against top-seeded side Australia.

    The Diamonds managed to run out to an early lead and the Roses had nothing in the tank to combat the shooting of Gretel Bueta and the dominance of Ash Brazill in mid-court.

    But, today is a new day and there's a bronze medal up for grabs, with New Zealand the opponents.

    Here's England's gold-medal winning team, speaking to BBC Sport:

    Zharnel Hughes: "I was just focusing on getting the job done and I trusted Jona because we have run together. Ran into Nethaneel and once he made up the ground I knew that was it."

    Nethaneel Mitchell-Blake: "I didn't hear him calling hand he called out three times, I knew we would be in a shot and that's what we delivered."

    Ojie Edoburun: "I am just so happy to come in and fitting right in with the boys. I didn't want to miss out on this special generation of athletes and I want to take this confidence into the Europeans."
