Six-time Olympic champion Usain Bolt anchored Jamaica to the men's 4X100m title at the Commonwealth Games at Hampden Park on Saturday.

The Jamaican quartet of Jason Livermore, Kemar Bailey-Cole, Nickel Ashmeade and Bolt clocked a Commonwealth record of 37.58 seconds for the gold.

England took silver and Trinidad & Tobago finished third.

"It means a lot," said Bolt of the win. "Commonwealth gold is the only medal missing from my collection.

"I'm happy to be here and sorry I didn't manage to run the individual events because the energy out here is wonderful."

England has guaranteed top place in the medal table after winning eight more golds, taking their gold tally to 56.

Australia stays at second with 45 golds but can only win a maximum of six on the final day's competition on Sunday.
