00:00Two non-starters here daily of Montserrat in one and Ajibé of Canada in lane six.
00:05That's a real shame. He's a 9.92 man over 100 metres.
00:09But if you saw the 100 metre heats, heavily strapped elbows perhaps deciding.
00:14It's not a smart carry on competing.
00:17Holder of Guyana will go in eight.
00:19Malis Sankutha of Sri Lanka goes in lane seven underneath 21 seconds this year.
00:25There's the empty lane six.
00:27Tifatina Tuna in Papua New Guinea goes in lane five.
00:30Their national record holder was 20.64 set up last year.
00:35Joel Crowell of the British Virgin Islands will go in lane four.
00:39He's their national record holder.
00:4019.95 last year, 20.4 this year.
00:45Either one of those at the moment would be enough to see Crowell through to the semifinals.
00:49Rogela Koneche of Lesotho goes in lane three.
00:52A national record in the opening round of the 100 metres.
00:5610.07 so it's great for Blaise Baldwin of St. Helena goes in lane two.
01:03And a 16-year-old for Montserrat.
01:06Daly Ralston unfortunately not down there in lane one.
01:12And a time qualifiers.
01:1316 of them and Jackson Clark of Guyana is the 16th at the moment on 20.80.
01:21And Emmanuel Aceme is a 13th the 100 metre champion from last night in 20.73.
01:26He should be all right just about but he's going to be close.
01:45Set.
01:49First time here.
01:50Empty lane.
01:51Papua New Guinea outside of him.
01:53He's trying to chase here.
01:54Tuna.
01:54He's not got many athletes to chase.
01:56And he's been undertaken by Gerald Kroll of the British Virgin Islands.
02:00This guy's gone sub 20 in his career.
02:02And he's looking every bit that kind of athlete right now.
02:04Crowell driving for the line.
02:06Finesse trying to get himself ahead of Manlesson Kuntur.
02:11In second and third.
02:13At 20.53 unofficially here in the stadium for Gerald Kroll.
02:20Underlying quality of a 9.95.
02:23That's what you just think.
02:24Could have been on for being the heat winner.
02:27It's the following wind over 1.5.
02:28So not too aggressive here for Crowell.
02:33Let's see.
02:34Tidy up those athletes behind.
02:37Kinesse.
02:38Alice and Kuntha.
02:40Let's hope they were close enough.
02:41Well let's see.
02:43Said it was 20.8 to make it through as a time qualifier.
02:46Like it could be really tight with the athletes in second and third there.
02:52Jaleel Kroll got a really, really good start, didn't he, on Kineshi.
02:56You pulled away from him right from the gun.
02:59But in this closing stages, in the last 30, 40 metres, he's really relaxed.
03:04He knows he's got that lead.
03:06He's got that distance ahead of him.
03:10Or he's got distance in front of the others and he just relaxes into it.
03:13And when they relax, that's when they can put these faster times down.
03:18See, you just look at him.
03:19He's just got beautiful form, hasn't he?
03:22He's still got a good knee lift.
03:24He's only got 30 or 40 metres to go coming into the finish line.
03:28And he just looks so, so relaxed.
03:30Do you think it's easier to hold that form when you're already in the lead?
03:33You know, you're already getting positive reinforcement that what you're doing is the right thing.
03:37So seeing some of these heat leaders.
