Barker beats Ghosal for bronze

England's Peter Barker has defeated Saurav Ghosal to win the bronze medal in the men's singles squash competition at the Commonwealth Games.

The 30-year-old needed 53 minutes to defeat the Indian 11-5 6-11 11-5 11-6 in the third-place match this afternoon.

The defeat ensured that Ghosul finishes fourth in the event for the second games in a row.

Barker's victory means that all three places on the podium will be filled by Englishmen, with Nick Matthew taking on James Willstrop in the final later this afternoon.
