Birmingham 2022 will be Scotland’s most successful Commonwealth Games outside of Glasgow 2014 after Neah Evans’ silver guaranteed at least 45 medals.

Evans was second in the women’s road race to earn her nation’s 42nd podium finish, with three more to come after the boxing finals later on Sunday.

It is Evans third medal after she took track silver in the points race and bronze in the individual pursuit.

Scotland’s 42 medals are comprised of eight gold, 10 silver, and 24 bronze.

Middleweight Sam Hickey, light-heavyweight Sean Lazzerini, and light-welterweight Reese Lynch will fight for gold later in the day and will, at worst, add three silvers to the tally.

That takes Scotland past the 44 earned in Gold Coast four years ago, which was the highest return apart from Glasgow 2014.
