'I knew I was getting hunted down'

Wales' Davies, who claimed the 50m backstroke title on Sunday, led Britain off in the medley relay, and they were third after Peaty's phenomenal breaststroke leg.

England's Guy, a gold medallist in the 4x200m freestyle relay, moved them into the lead, with an advantage of 4.62 seconds for Anderson, who took them home in a time of three minutes 40.18 seconds, ahead of Russia and Italy.

Olympic, world and Commonwealth gold medallist Peaty, who broke his own 100m breaststroke world record to retain his title on Saturday, said: "The team is maturing. We have a young team coming through and we did a great job."

The Englishman added: "We've all come off races, we have fatigue, but we've done it for the crowd."

Compatriot Anderson, who also won bronze in the 4x200m mixed freestyle relay, told BBC Sport: "I knew I was getting hunted down by a few of the men, but you just try to stick to your own tactics and get the job done."

Wilby's second silver; heartache for Murdoch

In the 200m breaststroke, Wilby came through the field to match the silver he won in the 100m, with defending champion Murdoch just 0.01secs from making the podium as Russia's Olympic medallist Anton Chupkov took gold.

"I always want more and I'm always hungry for more, so it's a good start and it's looking great going onwards," said Englishman Wilby, 24.

Commonwealth champion Thomas, 27, went into Monday's 200m butterfly final as world number one but finished almost two seconds slower than her gold medal-winning time on the Gold Coast in April.

"My legs were burning and I was fighting to get back and so to be on podium I am over the moon," the Welsh swimmer told BBC Sport.

"It's the intensity of the season, certainly as the home nations we're going to prioritise the Commonwealth Games - on a personal level and for country I did - so to come away with medals at both championships, I'm so happy."

England's Litchfield, 23, finished ahead of British team-mate Mark Szaranek, who came fifth in Glasgow, while Ellie Faulkner came fourth in the women's 200m freestyle.

Davies, Guy, Duncan Scott, Chloe Tutton, Holly Renshaw and Ben Proud will all compete for medals on Tuesday after qualifying for individual finals.

Guy and Scott progressed from the 200m freestyle heats with the third and 11th fastest times respectively.

World champion Proud and world record holder Andriy Govorov are likely to compete for gold in the 50m butterfly final after qualifying fastest from the semi-finals, while Renshaw and Tutton progressed in the women's 200m breaststroke.

Meanwhile, Davies is through to the 100m backstroke final as the sixth-fastest qualifier.

If Asher-Smith delivers 20 minutes earlier, Britain could well be celebrating a sprint double. GB's Zharnel Hughes is the joint-fastest man in Europe this year, along with France's Jimmy Vicaut.

Now is the time to prove it.
