England has confirmed it will be definitely sending a team to the Commonwealth Games in New Delhi later this year despite fears over security in the Indian capital, chef de mission Craig Hunter said yesterday.
A five-man delegation from England, led by Hunter, recently inspected the city during a nine-day trip after concerns security issues would force the country to fail to send a team to the 80-year-old event for the first time. "England will categorically be sending a team to the Commonwealth Games," Hunter said.
