Kiwi cyclist Sami Donnelly has claimed a second Commonwealth Games silver medal in as many days.
Donnelly initially was deemed to have won bronze in the Women’s 10km Scratch Race Final, but a disqualification bumped her into the silver medal position.
Competing at her first games, the 24-year-old won her first medal as part of the 4000m Team Pursuit on Friday.
A total of three New Zealanders lined up in the Women’s Scratch Race final, with Prudence Fowler and Olympic double-medalist Ally Wollaston finishing 16th and 18th respectively.

This would be McCartney’s first gold at the games, alongside the silver she won on the Gold Coast in 2018.
Para-cyclist Devon Briggs had also won a gold medal for New Zealand, and set a new Commonwealth Games record in the process.

Andrews was also part of the New Zealand sprint team that was bundled out during qualifying on Friday.
Rebecca Petch and Olivia King both were unable to get past the round-of-16 stage in their respective sprints.
On the endurance side, Bryony Botha was given a second life in the 4000m individual pursuit following the disqualification of two Australian riders but was beaten by Scotland’s Erin Boothman.

Botha initially failed to qualify, placing fifth, as did team-mate Emily Shearman, who finished eighth.
However, officials said Australian Felicity Wilson-Haffenden, who originally finished fourth, broke protocols due to strapping on her shoulder that “altered her morphology”.
Fellow Australian rider Sophie Edwards was also disqualified due to a non-compliant helmet.
On the men’s side, Marshall Erwood, Daniel Morton and Tom Sexton all failed to qualify for the next stage of the individual pursuit.
