As it happened: Commonwealth Games, day nine, Gold Coast

Join us for live updates of day nine of the Commonwealth Games in the Gold Coast.

Key events

Athletics, from 1.10pm

Two of New Zealand's biggest names competing on the Gold Coast both go for gold at Carrara Stadium tonight. Dame Valerie Adams is out to claim the Commonwealth Games shot put title for a fourth straight time. In qualifying yesterday her one throw was more than a metre further than the next best competitor. The final begins at 10.40pm.

Rio bronze medallist Eliza McCartney will be in action 80 minutes earlier. McCartney goes into the pole vault with the highest PB of all competitors at 4.82m but her season's best of 4.75 is slightly lower than England's Holly Bradshaw. Expect a battle between the Kiwi, Bradshaw, two Canadians Alysha Newman and Anika Newell along with Aussie Nina Kennedy.

Kiwi runner Jake Robertson is another medal chance in the 10,000m final. Robertson finished seventh in the seventh at the Glasgow Games.

Boxing, from 2.30pm

New Zealand could win four boxing medals today. But that would be a bad thing since all fig. Four Kiwis are competing in semifinals from 2.32pm when Troy Garton squares off against Anja Stridsman (Australia) in the women's 60kg semifinals. She's followed by Glasgow gold medalist David Nyika in the 91kg semifinal against Cheavon Clarke (England). Alexis Prichard is in the 57kg semifinals against Michaela Walsh (England) with
Men's +91kg boxer Patrick Mailata up against Frazer Clarke (England) in the last fight of the night,

Shooting, from 11am

Olympic silver medallist Natalie Rooney will look to get one over Australian Catherine Skinner who pipped her for gold at the Rio Olympics two years ago. Rooney finished fourth in Glasgow four years ago and was third at the Commonwealth championships last year. Qualification begins at 11am with the final set to begin just before 6pm.

Rugby sevens, from 6.53pm

The women's rugby sevens competition makes its debut at the Commonwealth Games with New Zealand beginning day one with pool matches against Kenya and South Africa.

Basketball, from 11pm

Hockey from 9.30pm

The men's Black Sticks are looking to reach just their second ever gold medal match at the Commonwealth Games. That was back in 2002 when there were defeated by Australia.
