On the third day of Commonwealth Games 2022, there was plenty of sports action to celebrate, with medals earned in Artistic Gymnastics, Weightlifting, Triathlon and Para Triathlon, Cycling, Rugby Sevens, and Swimming.

Here, we collect the finest of the remainder:

Badminton

England advanced to the quarterfinals of the mixed team competition with a 3-0 victory over Canada.

Marcus Ellis and Lauren Smith won mixed doubles, and Toby Penty won singles and men’s doubles.

Smith lauded their resilience to recover from Saturday’s loss to Singapore.

“Yesterday we didn’t play the conditions of the arena very well,” Smith said.

“It’s really slow out there and we played a slow, safe game when actually you almost need to be really bold and extra aggressive, and faster in the legs when it’s like this.

“Today we went out with a fresh mindset. We let yesterday slip out of our minds and said, ‘today we’ve got a job to do, let’s go out there and do it’. We really stamped our authority.”

On Monday, England will meet Malaysia in the semi-finals, while India will face Singapore.

Cricket

Australia dominated Barbados to earn a spot in the semifinals.

Barbados were bowled out for 64, with only the captain, Hayley Matthews, reaching double figures. Alana King’s figures of four for eight were outstanding.

“I’m in a good place and the team are in a good place. We are the stronger team [than Singapore] and we need to go out tomorrow and show that in our performance.”
