New Zealand was set to ride in the Commonwealth Games men's team pursuit bronze medal final Thursday night only to be disqualified from the event due to an illegal bike set up. An appeal was unsuccessfully made with Wales taking the place of New Zealand in the final won by Canada. Australia won the gold medal with a new world record time of 3:49.804 minutes.
