The 19-year-old, coached by Rob Ellchuk at the University of Bath, ran the second-fastest time of 13.53 in the morning’s semi-finals as she finished runner-up to defending champion Marlou van Rhijn.

The Dutch runner went on to beat her own world record as she won the final in 12.80 and silver went to Marie-Amelie Le Fur of France, who has already won T44 400m and long jump gold this week.

Kamlish was well placed at 50m after getting off to a strong start but was run out of the medals in the closing stages and finished fifth in 13.51, with bronze going to Nyoshia Cain of Trinidad & Tobago.

Kamlish is the second member of Ellchuk’s training group to represent Britain in Doha this week, with Paul Blake having won T36 800m gold and 400m silver.

The men’s team captain, coached by Rob Ellchuk at the University of Bath, ran a season’s best time of 54.58 as he finished runner-up to defending champion Evgenii Shvetcov of Russia in the Suhaim Bin Hamad Stadium.

In humid and breezy conditions, Blake made a strong start but Shvetcov moved away and went on to claim another gold in a championship record time of 53.72. Ukraine’s Roman Pavlyk made a late push for silver but Blake held him off by two-hundredths of a second.

“I can’t complain about a silver medal,” said Blake, who was also runner-up to Shvetcov two years ago having won 400m gold at the 2011 World Championships.

“Evgenii is a really strong athlete and all credit to him – the better man won on the day.”

Blake will be looking to emulate Shvetcov and retain his World Championship title when competes in the T36 800m. The semi-finals are on Sunday with the final at 5.04pm GMT on Monday.

Also competing in Doha is Blake’s training partner Sophie Kamish, third-fastest in the world in the T44 100m this year. All of her racing takes place on Thursday, October 29 with the final at 2.14pm GMT.

Blake, coached by Rob Ellchuk at the Sports Training Village, will be bidding for a third successive world title when the championships take place in the Suhaim Bin Hamad Stadium from October 22-31.

And the 25-year-old, who also won two medals at the London 2012 Paralympic Games, hopes his experience at the very highest level will help his team-mates achieve success.

“If I can keep performing the way I am going and hopefully help some of the other athletes achieve their best, then I will feel like I’ve done my part,” said Blake, who won T36 gold over 400m in 2011 and 800m in 2013. He also has three World Championship silver medals.

“I was waiting at the train station heading to training and [Paralympic Head Coach] Paula Dunn gave me a call [about the captaincy], which was a complete shock. She could have chosen a number of athletes on the team so it was quite an honour for me.

“I’ve been lucky enough to go to the last two World Championships so I have that experience. For the young guys coming through I can give them advice.”

Dunn said: “When choosing the captains, Laura and Paul were two of the standout names and I have no doubt that they will draw on all their experience to inspire a group which has not only a number of global medallists but also a large crop of newcomers.

“It’s really exciting to be back on the world stage and Doha marks a real stepping stone on the road to Rio and also the IPC Athletics World Championships in London in two years’ time. This will be an opportunity for the athletes to put a real marker down ahead of another busy time for the sport.”

The championships will see Blake once again line up against arch-rival Evgenii Shvetcov, who won three golds at London 2012 and four at the following year’s IPC World Championships.

“I don’t race him much during the season at the Grand Prix events so when I do, it only makes me better,” said Blake, who was runner-up to the Russian over 400m in 2013.

“It obviously spurs him on to see me there as well. He is a really tough competitor and I’m still striving to beat him.  It is what motivates me to work hard every day – I want to win the gold.”

Blake’s 400m semi-finals take place on Thursday (22), with the final at 1.16pm BST on Friday. The 800m semi-finals are on Sunday and the final at 4.04pm BST on Monday.

Also competing in Doha is Blake’s training partner Sophie Kamlish, third-fastest in the world in the T44 100m this year. All of her racing takes place on Thursday, October 29 with the final at 1.14pm BST.
