    Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce has signalled her intention to vie for a sprint double at the Tokyo Olympics


    She's delivered a career-best 21.79 seconds in the 200 metres to add to her 100 metres victory at the Jamaican trials.

    Just seven of the 17 faster times in the distance have come this century.

    The double Olympic 100 metre champion secured silver in the 200 metres at the London Games.
