England teams make winning start
England's men's basketball team opened their Commonwealth Games campaign with a battling Pool A win over Barbados.

Leading 35-29 at the break, coach Peter Scantlebury's side slipped back to trail by 53-47 in the second half before clinching a 75-59 victory.

Forward Fab Flournoy was forced to leave the court after receiving a blow to face but should be fit for England's next match with New Zealand.

England's women beat Mozambique 84-46 in their opening Pool C clash.
