    Sailors Oscar Gunn and Logan Dunning-Beck must deliver at the 49er world championships in Geelong this week


    The pair qualified the boat for New Zealand at the Tokyo Games in 2018 - but need to oust incumbent Olympic and world champions Blair Tuke and Peter Burling to get the selection nod.

    Dunning-Beck outlines their ambitions from here.



    The world championships start at 12.55pm.
