Weekend highlights

This afternoon the England women's hockey team try to win gold against India. Five English boxers, led by Darran Langley go for gold in the ring. Tomorrow the main stadium is sold out for the conclusion of the rugby sevens, while the first triathlon ever held in the Commonwealth Games takes place tomorrow morning. And will Ian Thorpe complete his magnificent seven?
