Ben Lane and Sean Vendy of England are about to take on Adam Dong and Nyl Yakura of Canada on the show court at the NEC in the men's doubles round of 16.

The English pair should be heavy favourites in this knockout match.

You can watch that match on the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Red Button and stream it live here.

Disaster for Malaysia's Yiwei Chew and Tse Liang Ooi, they were level with England after the first dive, but one of them hits the board with his feet, wrecking their fifth dive, with a score of 40.59 to drop to last place.

English trio Lorraine Ugen, Jazmin Sawyers and Abigail Irozuru are about to begin their long jump qualification campaigns, with the final of that competition on Sunday night.

The automatic qualification distance is 6.75m, with the top 12 across the two groups progressing.

World indoor bronze medallist Ugen is in Group A, with 2014 silver medallist Sawyers and Irozuru in the other group alongside favourite Ese Brume of Nigeria, who has finished on the podium in all six of the major championships for which she is eligible.

Jack and Anthony have got their noses out in front, but the others are sharpening their elbows. All the other teams have lower degrees of difficulty but it all comes down to holding your nerve and how you execute.

England crank up the difficulty to 3.8 with dive number five - going with the forward four and a half somersaults in tuck.

It's another amazing effort from both Jack Laugher and Ant Harding, that's 88.92 and they've got one hand on the golds with one dive left.

Scotland are down to fourth, needing something special last time out to grab a medal.

What a race!

Reigning champions Botswana and 2018 bronze medallists Jamaica go head-to-head in heat one of the men's 4x400 relay qualifying and it's contested as though it's the final.

Botswana take it, from Jamaica, but Zambia and Nigeria were not far behind at all.

Nigeria will have to wait and see if they'll be in that final battle.

Top seeds Aaron Chia and Soh Wooi Yik of Malaysia are through to the last eight.

The Tokyo 2020 bronze medallists had been put through their paces by Scottish twins Christopher and Matthew Grimley in their round of 16 match at the NEC.

But the world number six pair are just too good in the key points and get through to the quarter-finals in straight games, 21-19, 21-16.

Remember the judges don't get the replays. The judges get to see it instantly and then put their marks in.

It is another good good dive from England. The synchronisation is marginally off, Jack over-rotating ever so slightly.

Dive four for England is the inward three and a half somersaults in tuck. It has a difficulty of 3.4, as difficult as their previous dive.

It's another great dive from Jack Laugher and Ant Harding and it's 79.56. Not as good as round three, but still much better than any other pairing is managing.

Scotland's Ross Beattie and James Heatly are currently in third, with all five pairs having two more dives to go, but Laugher and Harding are 22 points clear out in front, two solid dives each away from gold.

Some relays fun for us to enjoy now in the men’s 4x400 heats.

Watch that here.

There's a home nations clash over in the netball where Scotland are about to take on Northern Ireland in the play-off for ninth and 10th. Scotland won one of their Pool A games against Barbados while Northern Ireland beat Trinidad and Tobago in their final Pool B match on Thursday.

These two are quite closely matched and the players know each other well from their respective domestic leagues so it should be an interesting one.

Later, Wales take on Malawi in the play-off match for seventh or eighth.

A HUGE third dive from Jack Laugher and Ant Harding. A huge roar echoes around the aquatics centre as their score of 87.72 comes up on the big screen.

Laugher and Harding's lowest degree of difficulty in their optionals is a cut above everyone's high difficulties.

England go with the forward two and a half somersaults two twists with pike, with a difficulty of 3.4 for dive number three.

Jack Laugher and Ant Harding nail it with an 87.72 and that keeps them at the top and they are halfway to gold.

Six cross the line together!

England's Katie Snowden finishes second behind Uganda's Winnie Nanyondo.

It's Jemma Reekie who misses out on a top-five place!

But she'll make it through as a non-automatic qualifier, with Wales' Melissa Courtney-Bryant taking the other spot from heat one.

They join Laura Muir and Norther Ireland's Ciara Mageean in Sunday's final.

Jemma Reekie looks nice and relaxed, in about sixth place heading into the final lap.

She's boxed in though...

This is where the competition really begins. The teams can choose their own dives and it all starts to crank up.

England's Katie Snowden eases to the front of the group, to the delight of the crowd.

If they can get round quicker than Wales' Melissa Courtney-Bryant's time of four minutes 14.46 seconds, seven of eight can make it through to the final here.

They're on schedule.

A superb second dive from Scotland's Ross Beattie and James Heatly pushes them up the standings into bronze medal position.

There's a glimmer of daylight between England and the Malaysians at the top, and the England fans with their St George flags are happy with that. They want to hear Jerusalem.
