saying to me john lewis you too can do something. and i would ask my mother as my father my grandparents my great grandparents why segregation why racial discrimination it was the best way it is don't get in a way don't get in trouble but trouble would find him many times as a student leader in nashville tennessee lewis was beaten for peacefully protesting segregation at restaurants and on buses in selma alabama police cracked his skull as he led a $600.00 marchers across a bridge. but that's. what it was at age 23 lewis was the youngest leader of the march on washington 2 years later president lyndon johnson signed the voting rights act into law protecting black americans from discrimination at the polls the act would foreshadow lewis's own political career he was elected to the u.s. house of representatives in 1986 his consistent defense of human rights during his

so necessary if you're willing to die for. you not a for your own freedom right now following his mentor martin luther king jr to his final rest john lewis was the last of the great civil rights leaders that shaped modern american history leaving another tall shadow for the next generation to fill . well people from across the political spectrum have been paying tribute to john lewis the former u.s. president barack obama on twitter is that not many of us get to live to see our own legacy play out in such a meaningful remarkable way john lewis did as we mentioned earlier protests calling for an end to racism and police violence continue in the united states his role brunell's on the events unfolding in portland oregon as knightly protests over systemic racism and police violence continue in portland a disturbing new development has emerged this week witnesses say federal agents in

unmarked vans are grabbing protestors off the streets and detaining them without clear cause. this video shows a man being grabbed by armed men in military fatigues without name tags and without any indication of what agency they work for he is marched to a vehicle and driven away several protesters say they were grabbed put in cells in the federal courthouse and then let go without being placed under arrest or charged with any offense that it will marshals denied any knowledge of the incidents and the department of homeland security has refused to comment in an interview on friday oregon governor kate brown says she wants president trump to pull federal agents out of her state earlier brown said the armed agents were making the situation worse. trump troops in portland are definitely not the answer as we

saw this only escalates the tension. and we need dialogue and deescalation trump has boasted about how federal officers he deployed routed portland demonstrators i guess we have many people right now in jail and we very much quelled it and of it so it's again well quality again very easily acting homeland security secretary chad wolf called the protesters lawless an archivist says oregon democratic senator ron wyden accused trump and wolf of provoking violence for political gain the demonstrators focus has been on the downtown area federal courthouse which falls outside local police jurisdiction 6 federal officers there have fired tear gas smoke grenades and so-called non-lethal munitions at protesters in one incident widely viewed online a federal agent fired on a protester hitting him in the head with

a projectile and leaving blood on the pavement the man 26 year old donovan loved bella needed surgery and is hospitalized in serious condition rob reynolds al-jazeera. iran's president says 25000000 iranians have now been infected by the coronavirus that's more than a quarter of the country's population rouhani says another 35000000 are at risk and those figures from the health ministry are far higher than the official number iran is the hardest hit country across the middle east with nearly 14000 deaths. as no car to get a viral mohammed one of the most important matters is that here is to medical recommendations and social distancing to limit the spread of the corona virus according to the ministry of health estimates 20 $5000000.00 iranians have been infected with the coronavirus so far and we have lost about $14000.00 of them within $150.00 days it is possible that $30.00 to $35000000.00 citizens are at risk

to be infected in the coming period this means that the number of patients who will be hospitalized will double it is possible that the virus will continue until march ok we'll get to send us ravi our correspondent in tehran in about 30 seconds or so but let's just look and offset those new figures coming to us out of tehran as we get ready to drill down into them compared to the official figures that we get of course from the johns hopkins tracking device it's a really good resource it's a global ready reckoner of the figures there you are you can see the figure for iran total confirmed cases just over $269000.00 let's have a look at the official death toll as well there you can see in white top right 13791 let's bring in zain bus ravi our correspondent in tehran so zain unpack these numbers for us how do we read them.

well peter it's been about an hour or 2 since president hassan rouhani spoke at today's coronavirus taskforce meeting and since then there's been an attempt by some of the members of his task force this is made up of dozens of health officials as well as security folks and politicians and now his secretary of his science committee on this task force has tried to clarify what the president was talking about he said that the figure that president hassan rouhani was referring to of 25000000 people infected includes those individuals who were given blood tests for antibodies so people who had contracted the virus technically but hadn't shown any symptoms hadn't been referred to more for more medical care and were only given blood tests not a swab test for the corona virus but they did come out positive for the antibodies he also said that iran's official infection rate is taken from people who are hospitalized have obvious symptoms and test positive for the p.c.r.

test so perhaps what president hassan rouhani was trying to say is not necessarily infected but how many have been exposed and how many more could be exposed and how this remains a very dangerous virus for the iranian public now this could be to create some kind of shock value for the public today is the start of one week of additional lockdown in the capital tehran cities across the country that have been seeing the virus resurgent have been having similar lockdowns and in tehran we start today one week of a lockdown similar to what we saw months ago across the country but whether this was a gaffe by the president or a purposeful flair of being shot as a warning to the iranian public one thing remains true that iran remains the worst affected country in the middle east whether it's a gaffe or a change of tack i guess doesn't matter but it's definitely a change of chuen on the parts of the government because in the early days of the

pandemic there were accusations killing of a lack of transparency and now we seem to be getting a totally different picture. that's absolutely right peter if you remember going back 4 months 5 months when we were having these conversations iran was really in a position of pitting the economy against a public health crisis and that has remained their footing throughout this response throughout the response to the outbreak if you recall in the early days when presidents and ronnie made one of his 1st public addresses about the virus he said it would probably be over in a matter of 3 days the supreme leader ayatollah khomeini characterized it as a non-emergency slowly but surely they were forced to recognize that this was a massive pandemic that it was a major public health crisis not just internally in iran but across the world and they have adjusted accordingly but even months in to this pandemic in iran there were debates and discussions there were public spats between municipal political

leaders and the national government in tehran about how the numbers weren't accurate when the virus outbreak began in this country wasn't accurate that the government wasn't co-leading numbers accurately enough that the methodology was off and there were is even a member of the task force internally in into iran that acknowledged that the numbers are likely far higher than the official statistics actually tell so what we're seeing is because of this back and forth iranians didn't necessarily take the pandemic very seriously contributed to the spread of the virus all over the country we saw the lockdown being lifted a few months ago and that has made things resurgent and we've seen just earlier this month the peak death toll being achieved records being broken consistently day after day so president and ronny here clearly whether it was a gaffe or not trying to send a message to the iranian people that they keep they need to keep taking this virus seriously ok they will leave it there many things correspondent reports month from the news from tehran. plenty more still to come for you here on out to 0 including

a difficult negotiation leaders meet for a 2nd day to reach a deal on the coronavirus economic recovery front and. also ahead hospitals in brazil struggling to cope with the world's 2nd worst virus outbreak. and in the sports news one of the crickets most high profile competitions might require a new temporary home all the details in about 30 minutes. the president of the european council has offered a compromise to break the deadlock over the e.u. economic recovery fund shell michel's revised the amount paid out in grants to countries in need of stimulus money e.u. leaders are holding a 2nd day of negotiations in brussels to find a way to pull the european economy out of what could be its deepest recession since the 2nd world war talks on friday 14 hours of them ended without an agreement here

are the main sticking points now leaders are divided over an overall proposed $858000000000.00 coronavirus recovery fund they're struggling to agree on whether it should be distributed as grants or as a loan be used for biggest economies france germany italy and spain want most of the money to be paid as grants rather than loans but the leaders of the netherlands austria denmark and the swedes to have urged a more frugal approach pressing for more money in the loans meanwhile hungary and poland well those 2 countries object to the proposal being tied to democratic reforms and human rights let's talk now to alric broker he's a political analyst and a professor for european studies at stanford in berlin he joins us from the greek capital athens already broken or good to talk to you again what's the difference between the compromise and what they started talking about yesterday. well i think what we observe is

a state that we got used to since the founding of the european union and given the fact that it's not a state or a federal organization but an organization consisting of sovereign states we have to observe this summit situation in which everyone is fighting for a national interest in the end of the long and intense conversations we find a compromise and then everyone appears in the press conference as a window do you think the e.u. was possibly being a little bit overly ambitious when it said to certain countries in the mix you've got to peg this money to human rights reforms well before co rolling out this sounded like the new approach nots related to the recovery fund but for the 7 years financial forecasts as they put it to the negotiation costs and put everything in $1.00 package for the next 7 years which is about

a trillion euros and the idea was to not appear as a tiger that kind of bite but an organization that has leverage to enforce the rule of law and democracy and specifically in countries like poland and hungary and now it appears that it's basically the prime minister of hungary or bonn will black mayor of the european union for either drop it completely or do you find conditions that are easy to afford to travel to the list of the sticking points that we went through just before you and i started this conversation which is the weaker one or the weakest one when it comes to the rest of the e.u. perhaps compromising so it can get an agreement signed and start interacting it. well the fact that we have so many dividing lines sounds like a very complex and complicated situation but at the same time it allows that everyone who gets something and then it doesn't appear as he is the one who is the

crucial point and the others are sort of a minor importance then martin for example wants to cut the total amount and then they return home and say we save taxpayers' money and the balance between grants and loans that appeared to be a very heated conversation but also it leads to a compromise that can just be a balance of numbers but i think what matters the most of that is the fact that everyone agrees that we are in such a difficult situation with co now that it's not about if we do it but we will do it and so in the end the surprising results will not be an entirely new thing or. the failure of the negotiations but everyone will get something and can present it as i want and that can return home and. the opposition the years if we ignore the magnitude and the importance of the issue on the table that they're trying to agree

on here going into this summit we had angle a cool and emmanuel macro clearly signaling this is a defining moment for the european union is what we're seeing at some level critics of the european union might say an inherent flaw in the e.u. because the bigger it gets the bigger the talking shop gets and the more diverse interests are brought to the table and clearly prime ministers presidents foreign ministers that they want to go back home and say i got the best deal for my country . but it perfectly describes the situation we are human but the finance minister of germany calls the fact that we extend the level of expenditure on a european level of like that the school policy equivalent often already centralize monetary policy to such a number at like 2 percent off that use cheapy is what we call the met is

a moment like a situation of the european union in which we spend so much more money and also shift so much more accountability to the european union that it will change the nature of the union into something like a much more political one but also one needs to give more say to the national parliaments and the european parliament so we move more towards something like a federalized station of the european union this is not open to discussed in the summit but it will clearly be a side effect of all the agreement that we see either today or in the follow up summit to make it even more dramatic ok we have to leave it there many thanks school with brooke in a bit in athens thank you. in the streets of barcelona are all but deserted after cinemas theaters nightclubs were closed to slow the spread of covert 19 hundreds of new cases have been detected meaning catalonia and arrogant the government's urging everyone to stay at home for at least the next 2 weeks with

gatherings restricted to 10 people the virus is linked to more than 28000 deaths in spain. in bangladesh corruption and a lack of resources are hurting efforts to fight the break of coronavirus and cope with 19 families of patients a treatment in some hospitals well the treatments are expensive and beyond their reach and people who are raising those concerns of being stifled let's turn now reports from dhaka. bangladesh has increased the number of hospital to treat called 19 but despite the infections rising more than 2 thirds of the hospital beds are lying empty with people worried about the quality of treatment they would receive the government turn to the private sector to boost health care capacity but many private hospital where cope with 1000 cases are being treated do not have any credit monitoring and supervision. brought his father to a private hospital in the capital for treatment he was dismayed by what he found i mean you can take

a team of the if they are fast i took my father there thinking things will be better because it's a private hospital but once admitted we found the conditions about most stuff didn't even have any protective gear hygienic condition was very poor they not only misdiagnosed my father but also charged us an example in 3 hospitals have been found to be operating without proper license says labs providing fake test results and pharmacies selling expired made a scene in may this year 5 patients died in a blaze at a private hospital in dhaka fire department reported it violated safety standards and some senior officers have been charged with negligence you need to do my father in law died due to a gross negligence of the united hospital he was a. her nonnegative patient yet they kept him in the isolation kareena ward located outside even though he died because of the fire incident at the hospital presented us with the bill of the $1785.00 us dollars the next day saying you will get the

medical reports after the payments are made. in another high profile case a private hospital owner and a government doctor where rested over their alleged involvement in a covert 1000 testing scam. ridden hospital administrators sign an agreement with the government in march to turn it into a dedicated coroner by the us hospitals law enforcement agencies raided the care center last week and sold it off somehow ok workers are charged with issuing fake 900 and illegally demanding money from patients bangladesh's health ministry didn't respond to all just a request for an interview a recent transparency international bangladesh study revealed many health care facilities in the country are being operated without following government regulations.

exposing corruption is becoming a challenge in bangladesh in recent months many journalists academics and doctors who spoke out about mismanagement in the health sector were detained by authorities under a digital security law critics say there's a growing climate of fear that will only impede the fight against coronavirus. dhaka bangladesh. joining us now is david berkman he's the english editor of metro news an online current affairs news website in and on bangladesh he spent more than a decade in the country working there as a journalist he joins us from london david bergman welcome to the news or this digital security legislation that the government is using is that just a catch all to put people away for a bit to make sure that their message doesn't get out you couldn't have put it more succinctly it's a new law that was supposed to be a kind of reform they used to be

a similar kind of set of offenses before this new offense was enacted and the offense is a very brute it allowed to most any form of criticism to come within it and so if the government and the law enforcement authorities decide that what the journalist or a social. a social digital user has written is something that they do want to get why distribution and they want to punish that person they can see that they've used the offense in order to prosecute them and many journalists and other social critics have been. cases filed against them and have been arrested as a result as to the main kernel of our reporting today talking about a situation where people are either ripped off or they choose to not admit themselves to the doctor's surgery or a hospital because they think they've got symptoms or they've got full blown coverage 19 how widespread do you think that is. it seems to be increasing i

mean there was a moment when there was trust i feel in in the bangladesh people on the authorities in dealing with the copy of 1000 that demick but increasing the reports of fake testing systems the cup in 1000 and also paul medical health a gain increasing currency within being more people are of heard about these and this is gained ground within the country increasing numbers of people are not going to have tests and are trying to self medicate themselves at home and not going to hospitals so it's a cause of significant concern knowing the region as well as you do david is there a chance that similar practices similar levels of corruption might be reflected in other countries. it's difficult to say i mean bunk this is a. system there's tremendous lack of appropriate governance of in the 2 sions

and lack of trust so i wouldn't like to say that what is happening in bangladesh necessarily is happening in other countries in south asia i think bangladesh is pretty silly generous in in many ways there is a north auto in tarion government increasingly with the italian government there is widespread corruption and a huge lack of trust you need to to sions that are dealing with the crop in $1000.00 upper demi so all those 3 things together make the budget a situation by a particular everything ok david will leave it there many thanks david and they're talking to us on skype out of london we appreciate your time. ok let's stay in that area south asia bangladesh india pakistan is jenny yeah well the weather you say peter of course in bangladesh a 3rd of the country is actually under flood water and this on the satellite shows exactly where the where you have the weather has been we've had to run trains across this particular area there's actually a slight reprieve from that over the next few days instead is actually in southern

pakistan seeing the recent very heavy rain this is the same system that brought the heavy rains the flooding into mumbai about 3 days ago worked his way up into go dress and then of course produces heavy downpours into pakistan so as you can see just came everything came to a standstill all of the traffic but as we go through sunday it really is very widespread these rains right the way across areas of it to protests odisha west bengal not as heavy across bangladesh and certainly not too volatile across into southern pakistan and then as you go through monday look at that heavy rain again it's the same regions that have had the recent flooding on the mudslides nepal bhutan and again the far north of west bengal but also heavy rain across into bangladesh some areas in the next 72 hours could pick up over $400.00 millimeters of rain now that system which brought the heavy rain into southern pakistan that is now already impacting oman's there is at it across the open waters and you can see all of this cloud here now this will continue to produce some very heavy amounts of rain since you see dark blue and yellow you know that means very heavy downpours

that eventually work its way sunday in some more eastern areas of yemen but in fact over the next 48 hours we could see about 70 millimeters of rain into southern amman that will undoubtedly cause some flash floods and as we go through monday that rain then very heavy into these areas the yemen and the fall southwest assadi so again another area peter that could see some flooding in the next few days ok jenny thanks very much for that we'll talk to later i'm sure still to come here on the news hour for you french prosecutors open an arson investigation after a fire damaged the 16th century cathedral. this could be on a new means of transportation innovate for. sure but for some a little scary by this could be the future of long distance travel in europe. will it be a case of master versus apprentice in the f.a. cup semifinal later on saturday sama will explain all in about 20 minutes.

today even as diplomats from across the region continue their efforts to reach an agreement on how the country should be run. protest leaders have described mediation efforts so far as quote a total failure live now to nicholas who is covering those developments from dakar in neighboring senegal nick welcome back to the news so this is another day of negotiations any progress whatsoever do we think. well these negotiations peter we're still taking place late last night and late into the night one of the leaders came out after the press conference and as you mentioned said it was a total failure he listed some of the recommendations made by ecco us which included the creation of a new constitutional court a court settling the election electoral disputes over the results of the outcome of the the parliamentary elections that happen in april forming a government of national unity half of which would be nominated by the president

the other half nominated by the m 5 movement this protesters movement but no new propositions on the table they say because. still what these protesters want is the removal of president. of. his seat in power or stripped him of his powers altogether just a few days ago at the beginning of the negotiations one of the leaders of the protest movement walked out of the mediation saying that 1st there needs to be a full investigation over the use of force by the money and government against protesters that happened over the weekend and on friday we saw a day of mourning over the 12 people that were killed and scores of people that were injured take a look at this report. prayers for the dead 15 year old isa my god died from a bullet in the head when security forces stormed the influential muslim cleric

resign and the new elected national assembly dissolved. and he. will want to solve the problems. indeed did last. week. but it appears the crisis is deepening while the president calls for a national unity government the m 5 movement want a transitional government that would strip kate of his powers accuses the president of abuse of powers and naming family members and friends to keep positions without oversight this video circulating on social media of the president's son an elected m.p. on a luxury holiday has caused uproar among the millions half of whom depend on humanitarian aid for food while millions continue to flee the ongoing armed conflict involving al qaeda and islamic state affiliates protesters say the death should not go in

vain promising more actions ahead as continues to spread they say the future of mali is at stake. now the protests that we're seeing in mali is resonating throughout the region in west africa leaders presidents in ivory coast and neighboring brooke you know force are closely monitoring the situation because later this year they have elections and they fear that this this this content that we're seeing in the streets of burma could spread to the capital of abidjan or to walk or do go where in bric enough so they too are facing armed conflicts and they too are disgruntled towards they have issues with their leadership in ivory coast there's a crisis of leadership so that's why we saw the west african body so involved in that mediation effort to try to find a solution to this crisis meanwhile the movement the protest movement said to continue with this nationwide civil disobedience movement is set to continue in

a country that is continuing to fight off armed groups in the north in the center of the country remember there are 14000 foreign troops u.n. and european troops in mali trying to bring peace but in bamako right now the fear is that this may spread and that the if the if the crisis is not resolved soon peter make thanks very much cynical soccer correspondent live for us here on the news in some ago. a new anti terror law has come into force in the philippines that allows the police to bypass the court system and to arrest suspects without a warrant they can be held without charge for up to $24.00 days critics are concerned it will be in danger civil liberties may be abused to target opponents of president reagan to turkey's government richard is a man in the best political science is an author he says the definition of terrorism here this new law well it's very broad. to begin with there are

safeguards within this law with regards to abuses of human rights but the problem is the political and institutional environment in the philippines i mean you have reports of thousands of extra judicial killings in the country despite the fact that you have very strict laws that are supposed to ensure jew process and human rights and the problem with this new law is that even though there are certain legal safeguards its definition of terrorism is extremely broad and if you look at section 4 of the proposed law for instance in these initial draft it says that if security forces deems certain exercises of civil and political rights as posing a risk to public safety then that could be defined as terrorism so it gives tremendous amount of rain to a quite an authoritarian leaning government this is what the critics are saying to add to tag anyone as terrorists even if that person started being subverting state institutions the world health organization says brazil's coronavirus infection rate

appears to have plateaued and it should seize the opportunity to drive it down the country remains the epicenter of the pandemic unless in america however as the see in human reports there is growing criticism of the way governments across the region have been handling the outbreak. in the admission to chicken at a hospital in money that doctors fight to keep critical care patients alive unlike the city and narrow in much of real state coronavirus infections continue rising infections in brazil have surpassed the 2000000 mark it took 4 months to reach 1000000 infections and less than one to double that number. and the death toll is now well past 75000 yet according to brazil's former health minister who was sacked by president table so natural the defendant confinement measures authorities and even ordinary citizens are not taking coronavirus seriously enough as business. people have become uncaring 1300 deaths

government relaxed initial confinement measures hospital officials say they're on the brink of collapse well it's what's killing us is not the virus is the indifference of the state it is the indifference of the health authorities and as long as governments ignore calls for more energetic measures to control transmission health experts warn that initial signs of a slowdown in contagion will not last to see in human al-jazeera. now in zimbabwe schools have remained closed following an increase in virus cases that for now children in poor households who don't have access to the internet are getting their lessons on the radio or much us reports now from harare. right. it wasn't easy for the students to make it on time for today's english lesson 1st the batteries in the radio died the parents put together what money they could to buy some all this english lesson is being taught over the radio instead of in the classroom because of the coronavirus pandemic but these learners complain they cost

opened 2012 but a dutch company says its design is now the most advanced the idea has attracted the attention of one of the busiest airports in europe amsterdam's schiphol bajan having terminal or station right next to the departure hall part of a larger european network and other station passengers can board instead of an airplane group and go can go to berlin. or longer in just one hour tard a recent study by skip poll shows that 520-5012 1000000 passengers of the 73000000 predicted to fly between tipple and european cities could travel by hyperloop this is how the hyperloop should work this cabin is connected to my attic field so there's no resistance and it can travel at extremely high speed inside this you know air pressure this could be our new means of transportation in a face for sure but for some

a little scary i mean. that's why the cabin is the zine to make travelers as much at ease as possible traveling up to a 1000 kilometers an hour in a windowless jupe there's a very comfortable way of speeding up and slowing down the vehicle or you will feel almost nothing although can we walk around that is a very good question some of the questions we do research on as well also the question whether or not passengers can use the toilet has yet to be answered train experts out of on hassles as predictions that travelers can use a hyperloop in the near future are far too optimistic. but that is all it's a fantasy that's all it's good to invest in research to find out if it's possible and to know what we can learn then that's fine but to say this is realistic i would say it's not absolutely not he suggests the netherlands to invest in existing

technology such as magnetic trains in stats which he says are cheaper to build and safer than atlanta aims to be the 1st to develop the hyperloop and plans to open a new rypien center in holland in the next year but the city's 3 kilometer test track will have to prove that the superfast international group train is indeed the way to go step fasten al-jazeera dallas. more than 100. the prime minister.

welcome back time. thank you very much at the tele tiger woods says aging is not fun after struggling that with a stiff back the 15th time a day when barely avoided the cut at the memorial tournaments and ohio this is woods 1st competition on the p.g.a. tour after 5 months break the 44 year old made it too late birdies to salvage a full of a pos $76.00 that left him with re over the 5 ton the moral tempting is now 12 strokes behind the leaders hof way through the time and same type of stem as i used to have that's for sure. when i was training hard and running and all that stuff and. credible lot older now so. they stage they evolve and.

you know so what. it is what it is you know energy is just trying to suck it up the best you can and get through aging is not fun you know that. you know early on in my career i thought was fantastic because i was getting better and better and better and now i'm just trying to hold on. american tony for now fire the 3 on the $69.00 to join a ryan palmer on the top of the leaderboard i feel that fitted to going into the next round i whether it was leading turning in and i. am hopeful that it will turn around and fortunately for me i was able to make some birdies to kind of close my same night and then make someone you know my back 9 so you know i was very pleased to finish that way and and you know i look at it at the end of the day you know i start to talk a little more precise like this is the indian premier league it could be moved out of india because of the corner virus pandemic you turn into has already been delayed because of its crisis it was meant to begin in march india itself has

recovered over the course of over 1000000 the covert 900 cases and reports in the countries media came. looking to hold the competition in the u.a.e. between september and november however it would clash with the t 20 world cup in australia which begins in october and that's now is still going ahead despite the pandemic. well joining us now from new delhi is a s.p.n. cric info as a signal guy said tell us how likely is it the i.p.l. will go ahead in the u.a.e. . well the u.a.e. has come forward are the most logical and the most likely option for india because india do not want to let's go with the i.p.l. it is a very important for them but for the mrs a i and india as of now given the health crisis in the country is highly unlikely to be able to provide a biotech year and ran meant for so many so many cricketers and.

also to be able to get foreign star international cricket stars to travel to india is going to be that sense whereas you a.e.g. has had had it much better with over 19 than but we have a day or so and the other advantage that the u.a.e. has is 3 grounds everton driving distance of each other which makes it more convenient to have the kinds of conditions that are tournaments and it will be more it will be easier to buy a secured 3 hotels it will be easier to get into certain stars to you a it will be. there won't be any travel involved so logically speaking and the time zone 2 is perfect for india because that does not talk much of a time difference between the 2 countries so a lot just a click speaking commercially speaking if it has come across as the best option should india not be able to carry it shouldn't india not be not be able to go ahead

but the i.p.l. india and in the silence it's got to continue please. india but even my india have not officially started announcing that they are going ahead with the tournaments or what their interests are making with it because they don't want to come across as aggressive was merely i think you have not yet announced the postponement of the world the t 20 world cup which is scheduled to be in australia and once they do announce that which is what we're expecting to happen once they do announce it the window opens itself for india to move it. said do you think indian cricket can afford for the i.p.l. to be canceled altogether and could any teams go out of business if that happens well if any board that can afford such a big loss that but still is a huge loss for the board it it's according to rough estimates of our top

a $1000000000.00. and it's important effect for teams that drastically that they go out of business because there's a look at of t.v. deal that will that will support them to the rough time but they will lose out on a lot of planning goes went which brings them sponsors which brings them more commercial deals so they will go under but they're all there would be if the war we run out of business if it does not happen when you're having said that it will be it will still be a very significant loss what will the board and the teams of lawyers and law. said mongan from e.s.p.n. quicken for thank you very much for that. you. well it's a case of a master versus apprentice and the f.a. cup semifinal later on saturday that guardiola as mantissa city are looking to complete a domestic cup double take on arsenal gunners of course are managed by quality or less form a 2nd in command mikel arteta. got the better of the to tell in their size and met

in the e.p.l. last month the city winning 3 now like any other team. they have some weaknesses as you mention and as well as a modest up in as well their restaurant. they are loans is part of any game plan is not about us it is about any other open ended we are facing. a spec an eternity will tough tough tough again. because. they have something special really they have to listen to each day they create mikel creator for side maybe some problem from one side when i see in their games and how the celebrate the goals how they fight every single war they start to create something a structure for this club. there was a big day for one of the sleeping giants of english football other needs united a club it celebrates and promotion to the end there's been a day off to 16 a year absence. and that is if i may be to sign up thanks very much kamal keep you

company on the other side of this break i'll have another news for you the 13 g. until then thanks for watching we will see you very soon. the politics of division have pushed india into the grip of a historical reckoning i am afraid to be closing on the minority of. trade but where do these ideas come from the tragedy of more lives how much we've tried to sanitize getting to school a happy family all along both of joining me on dish now see you on the final part
