00:00We'll lead them off to Kisiwa Mensah on her debut for the senior GB team.

00:05Jerry O'Quainu will run leg three and Joe Ferguson we saw nearly closed down the Jamaicans yesterday.

00:11He'll be up against a different Jamaican opponent this time.

00:14Jamaica have made a couple of changes to their team.

00:16Serena Cole, the 20-year-old, comes in here on the opening leg.

00:19Crystal slowly will continue on lane two as will Javari Thomas on leg two, I should say.

00:25Javari Thomas on the third leg.

00:26And they've brought in Brian Lavelle on the ankle leg to replace Rashid Foster who held off Joe Ferguson yesterday.

00:32Canada, they've bolstered their team today.

00:35Both women have changed.

00:36Sadie McCreeth coming in on the opening leg and Marie-Eloise Leclerc on the second.

00:41Both male athletes continue in the team.

00:43Asimota and Ajibi to run the anchor.

00:48Italy, well they only retain one of the team that ran yesterday.

00:51That will be Gaia Bertello on the second leg.

00:54Melon to open up for them.

00:55There is Bertello to run the back straight.

00:57Handing on to Roberto Regali.

01:00And they bring in Steven Owoa before on the anchor.

01:03And then we have some consistency.

01:05Big as France.

01:06It's the same quartet for them.

01:08Lucy Jean-Charles on the opening leg.

01:11Handing on to Naomi Denon.

01:14Dylan Vermault.

01:30Then Kongling Zhao.

01:32Chen Jingfeng.

01:34And then Cheng Kuanfeng on the final leg.

01:40Very, very popular team.

01:42As you can imagine here, this crowd is 99% Chinese.

01:46And Belgium also have the same quartet as yesterday.

01:48On the inside, Jani Denaya to lead them off.

01:52Handing on to Lotta Van Lent.

01:54Now Robertoffs.

01:55And on the final leg will be Rendell Vermeulen.

01:58So there you have it.

02:01Your eight teams for the mixed 4x100m relay final.

02:07On a beautiful still evening here in Guangzhou.

02:10Remember, World Championship place is not up for grabs in this.

02:13$28,000 in prize money.

02:15This brand new event.

02:17Potentially the chance to set a new World Best time as well in this new event.

02:23There's one direction in which this crowd support will be going.

02:29It will be in lane 3.

02:31China.

02:34Canada strong.

02:36With McCreeth coming in there.

02:38Handing on to Leclerc.

02:39Two of their leading female sprinters.

02:47Cleanly away to start evening 2 here in Guangzhou.

02:50At the World Athletics Relays in Canada have gone out strongly.

02:54McCreeth in the centre.

02:55Handing on to Leclerc.

02:57Decent enough change by most of the teams.

03:00Italy weren't that fluid and lost a bit of ground there in fact.

03:03Canada with outside then Jamaica.

03:06Handing on to the male half of the race.

03:08Jamaica was stretching but got the baton there.

03:10Great Britain on the outside.

03:11Also going strongly.

03:13Great Britain with Jarrell Quainu.

03:14Now Canada handing the baton on for the final leg to Eliza Ejibi.

03:18Jamaica on the final leg.

03:19Brian Lavelle looking to close him down.

03:22Canada, Jamaica and then Great Britain.

03:24But Canada looking powerful.

03:26And come home to become the first mixed 4x100m champions at the World Athletics Relays.

03:31Anchor home by Eliza Ejibi.

03:35They got out of the blocks quickly.

03:37They strengthened their team and they got their rewards.

03:4040.30 the winning time.

03:42Absolutely exceptional there.

03:47Oh, what a debut for this event.

03:49We love it.

03:50We love the drama the relays bring.

03:53The Canadian team will be very happy with that indeed.

03:57Started themselves off for a good night here for the finals day here in Guangzhou.

04:03Great Britain looking on.

04:05They think they could have done a little bit better.

04:07But it was close, wasn't it?

04:08It was.
