Australia suffered their first Commonwealth relay defeat in eight years in the men's 4x100m medley relay at the hands of England, who wrapped up 10 Swimming Gold Medals to close their swimming meet.

19-year-old sensation Ben Proud claimed his second gold of the Games by beating star duo Cameron McEvoy and James Magnussen in the men's 50m freestyle.

World Champion in 100m freestyle, Cate Campbell handed the Aussie women 4x100m medley relay gold after Daniel Tranter won the men's 200m individual medley to take Australia's final gold medal tally to 19.
England won the final race though, the team of Chris Walker-Hebborn, Adam Peaty, Adam Barrett and Adam Brown clocked a Games record time 3min 31:51sec to become the first English team to beat Australia in the 4x100 medley relay since 1950 games.
