i got told outside that there is an english race who don't win trophies with kids. i don't know that... there are longer careers of mine, but in my more than 20 years, easily the most special trophy i've ever won. it's absolutely exceptional. they need to feel the pain, they need to feel that, the competition. we played for a trophy, we didn't get it. and now it's the same — why, you can't tell me, you know, that can make me feel better. that's it. they need to feel the pain like us. wolves are up to eighth in the premier league and pushing for a place in europe, after beating bottom side sheffield united 1—0 at home. that's their third win in four in the league. pablo sarabia with

the first—half winner — his third goal of the season. sheffield united did create some chances, but they stay bottom on goal difference below burnley, eight points off safety. sheffield united are a direct team, long throw all the time. real big threat from corners, and the way the lads stood up to that stuff was excellent. the way they kept going even when we made mistakes, when we turned the ball over, there was no disappointment, it was a team together, desperate to make up for it and defend the goal. so there's loads of different ways you need to win premier league games, and we had to scrap, below our best and managed to get three points, which is very important to us. it's a new team that's been assembled this year, that finds itself in a difficult position, but they gave me and the football club everything today, especially with the amount of ball we had in the second half. we just need to have better, more calm moments, and the quality they found for their first goal. we unfortunately couldn't find
1:47 am
that for the majority of the second half. india should clinch the test series, after bowling england out forjust 145 in their second innings in the fourth test in ranchi. ravichandran ashwin took five wickets and india were 40—0 at stumps, needing another 152 to go 3—1 up in the series with one to play. skipper rohit sharma is unbeaten on 2a, with yashasvi jaiswal on 16. yeah, look, india played well. batted really well towards the end. and yeah, he probably scored a few more runs than we would've liked, but me and tommy are really excited for tomorrow. that pitch has deteriorated quite a bit now, so we saw some pop for a good length and some roll. so that's a good sign for us. as i said, really excited for tomorrow. our chief cricket writer stephan shemilt is in ranchi,

says it was always going to be a a tough ask for england a tough ask for england to beat india, in india, but they had their chances. we have to remember how incredibly difficult it is for a visiting team to win just one test match in india, let alone an entire series. it is 12 years since india lost a home test series. and yes, this is a team in transition without its big stars, but a new generation of players have come in and stood up. jaiswal, gill, sarfaraz. of course, you have that old firm bowling attack, the spinners, even though bumrah�*s been rested for this fourth test match. if it does turn out to be 3—1, you said england would be 3—1 down after four tests,
1:49 am
you'd think that wasn't that bad an effort. for any visiting team coming to india, the regret comes from the opportunities england have had for the scoreline to be much closer than that, level it to 2—2 or even england in front. we will see england pull off something remarkable in the fourth day, and if they can't, they'll look back at these four tests and wonder what might�*ve been, and they'll go to the fifth test thinking fifth test thinking that 4—1, if they were to lose there, would not be a fair reflection of the series. italy were just inches away from one of the biggest upsets in the history of the six nations championship. after fighting back to draw level against iii—man france in lille, paolo garbisi kicked what would have been the winning penalty against the upright. it finished 13—13, the first draw between the two nations. i must think about trusting my process, really. it's part of myjob to get the kick over — so yeah, i take full responsibility for that,
1:50 am
i'm sorry for the team because i thought they were amazing today, but also for the supporters, that's my bad and i'll work on it. fortunately they missed the kick, but for us just disappointed in a draw. we expected to beat italy today, and to concede 13 points is not too bad against 14 players. but we are obviously disappointed that we didn't get a win. a year after losing his tour card, darius van driel claimed his maiden dp world tour title on sunday in the kenya open. englishmanjoe dean, who is a part—time delivery driver in great britain, finished joint second with spain's nacho elvira. they both finished two shots behind darius van driel, who had to come through qualifying school to get back on tour and the dutchman finally won in his 112th tournament appearance. he hit a final round of 67 to finish on 1a—under par.
1:51 am
britain's kye whyte, a silver medallist at the 2020 olympics, capped an incredible comeback by winning round 4 of the bmx racing world cup in brisbane. the 2a—year—old, who had not reached a world cup final race since 2022, made a fast start on the shoulder of favourite cedric butti, and he stayed there until the final few metres when the brit pipped the swiss rider on the line. it was a remarkable victory for a man who only six weeks earlier had been bed—ridden after a severe asthma attack. last year, i don't know how many injuries i had. and then even at christmas, i had an asthma attack. i've only been riding for six weeks properly. yesterday, ifelt like i could have made the final, but it wasn't meant to be. today, i made the final, and i won. and i ain't made the final since 2022 colombia, so i'm happy with it. and finally, we'll return to football — because non—league maidstone united are taking on coventry city in the fifth
1:52 am
round of the fa cup on monday. they are looking to become the first team from the sixth tier to reach the quarter—finals. they got this far by beating ipswich town in the last round, who are above coventry in the championship. they are a fantastic, fantastic championship side. and if i'm being totally honest, it'll be harder than ipswich. this is something i've been drilling into the group of players — we are not cocky, yes, we have to be able to walk on to any football pitch against any opposition. we need to be confident and i'm trying to drill into the group. you have to believe as a group that yes, you can get a result, because once the whistle goes, it's 11 against 11 and it boils down to the decisions we make. you can get all the latest sports news at from the bbc sport app, orfrom our website — that's bbc.com/sport. from me and the rest
1:53 am
of the team at the bbc sport centre, goodbye. hello there. for many parts of the uk, monday looks like being a dry day with some sunny spells. the rain that we've had in the south — and there was an inch of rain in cornwall — has been close to that low pressure. that is tending to move away, restricting the rain towards the far southeast of england. but there's quite a breeze blowing for england and wales, so it won't be as cold as it was the previous night. we're looking at a frost, though, in scotland, maybe some icy patches following a few wintry showers, which will fade away quickly in the morning. plenty of sunshine for scotland and northern ireland on monday. sunny spells for england and wales. the rain pushing away from kent, sussex and the channel islands. but it's a northeasterly wind that follows that will bring the odd shower into eastern england, perhaps into the midlands, as well. and it'll feel chilly in that wind across
1:54 am
the southeast of england. temperatures could make ten celsius, but we're looking at 8—9 being more typical — similar to what we've had over the past few days. the winds do drop across south eastern areas after dark, and it gets cold and frosty for england and wales ahead of that weather front moving down from the northwest, together with some stronger winds. so a band of wet and windy weather sweeps through scotland and northern ireland, pushes into england and wales. most of the rain will be over the hills, followed by sunshine and blustery showers. wintry over higher parts of scotland. may well be largely dry across the midlands, east anglia, and the southeast — but it'll be quite cold, and there could be some mist and fog around in the morning. that weather front bringing the rain continues to weaken as it moves south eastwards after dark, and then we await the next weather system coming in from the atlantic. it's just a brief window of dry weather. there'll be some sunshine after a chilly start, but we'll see the cloud moving in more quickly, and the rains moving across more quickly as well — notjust across northern ireland now, but other western parts of the uk before the end of the afternoon. the best of the sunshine in the far east of england. but temperatures are likely
1:55 am
to reach double figures — and, together with these bands of rain coming in from the west, we've got some milder air on thursday night, so no frost this time. we still have a weather front to move through on thursday — that's that band of rain clearing scotland, pushing into england and wales. and that will be followed by more showers — and these will be turning wintry over the hills. as things just get a little bit colder, we could well see temperatures across eastern england, though, in double figures — but only for a while, because the colder air will push down across the whole of the country by the end of the week. and, with low pressure in charge, we've got showers or longer spells of rain, and there may even be some winteriness over the hills.
