?? Diving: Silver and bronze in mixed events
Last night Shixin Li and Maddison Keeney picked up silver in the mixed 3m springboard synchronised event.
They finished just 1.98 points behind winners Scotland, as both Aussie divers picked up their third medals of this Games.
Climbing higher, Cassiel Rousseau and Emily Boyd added bronze in the synchro off the tall tower.
It’s Boyd’s first medal in Birmingham, while Rousseau added to his 10m gold and men’s 10m synchro bronze.

SEVEN!
The Australian men’s hockey team have won Commonwealth Games gold seven straight times.
This time they did it with a thumping 7-0 win (how fitting) over India.
Jacob Anderson and Nathan Ephraums scored doubles, usual suspects Flynn Ogilvie and Blake Govers got on the board too, as well as Tom Wickham.
It’s Australia’s 67th and final gold medal in Birmingham.
