Welsh para-cyclist James Ball has won Wales' first medal at the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham with a silver in the men's tandem B 1,000m time trial.
Along with pilot Matt Rotherham, the pair finished behind Scotland's Neil Fachie on day one of the Games, in front of a crackling crowd in London on Friday.
Ponthir Paralympian Ball, who won two silvers in Australia four years ago, spoke of his frustrations at coming second best, but admitted he will be proud of his achievement when the dust settles. Fachie and Ball went one-two in Tokyo last summer and did so twice at the last Games, Gold Coast 2018, while their rivalry on the track goes back to the World Championships in 2016.
