we start at lords, the ground where james anderson took his first test wicket 1a years ago. back there today he brought up his 500th against west indies, the first english cricketer to reach the landmark. and while he will almost certainly take tomorrow's headlines, the match remains in the balance and could go the way of either side. joe wilson reports. september test match requires patience. what begins with a brain can and dim sum. cricketers stretching the season. —— end in sun. there is an alternative source of energy. ben stokes. in terms of all—round cricket talent, he looked like the world leader in front of the prime minister. the west indies could have got rid of ben stokes when he made 24. costly because he was the only player in the match to actually make batting seems straightforward. here comes a strange episode. 0n

straightforward. here comes a strange episode. on 60 stokes was out, except look at the front foot off the fast bowler. no ball. two balls later he was out again. identical, except that this time the front foot was fine. the relentless kemar roach got rid of moeen ali for his fifth wicket. instead of the innings‘ ending, roach had to watch them stretch to 61, with stuart broad enjoying himself. great fun if you are his sister, not so for the ball. then it was his turn. james anderson breached his everestjust after 5:15. if you could choose a way to reach 500 test match wickets you would select something like this. craig braithwaite utterly dismissed. after those early rain delays play continued well into the evening under the lights and the wickets kept tumbling. there was 500 14james wickets kept tumbling. there was 500 14 james anderson. ——

vermeulen in 2003. he‘s just the third fast bowler on the list, behind the likes of the australian great glen mcgrath, he‘sjust 19 behind west indies‘ courtney walsh. he trails walsh by some 17 wickets. and now he is sixth cricketer to reaach 500 test wickets. 501 came today. you‘ve got to wonder if he‘ll pass walsh. celtic warmed up for their champions league tie with paris saint germain on tuesday, with a 4—1 victory over hamilton in the scottish premiership. stuart armstrong curled in his side‘s first in the 17th minute, before scott sinclair fired home two more goals before half time. this his first french forward 0dsonne edouard, who is on a season long loan from the paris club, scored on his debut,

to make it four, as the scottish champions warmed up for their european opener against the french league leaders in the champions league next week. who, it‘s worth pointing out, looked in ominous form tonight having assembled one of the most talented forward lines in european football. new signing kylian mbappe on the scoresheet alongside neymar and edison cavani as psg beat metz 5—1 in ligue un. mbappe signed on a season long loan grabbed his side‘s second. the french forward could become the second most expensive player in history when he makes his move permanent next season. neyamr, who tops that list, curled in the league leader‘s third. they will teke some containing when celtic come up against them on tuesday. it‘s been a high scoring night all round and a sobering one at that for leonid slutsky‘s hull city, who were thumped 5—0 in the championship at derby county. matej vydra opened the scoring with a thunderous free—kick and the czech was to double the derby lead, but hull‘s woeful
11:51 pm
night was summed up by this dreadful attempt at a penalty from seb larsson which cleared the bar by some distance. former hull defender curtis davies added a third and then two goals from bradleyjohnson rounded off a memorable derby performance, which moves them to fourth in the championship table. the premier league returns after the international break. despite scoring for brazil against ecuador in a world cup qualifier last week, there is no place for phillipe coutinho in liverpool‘s squad to face manchester city tomorrow. jurgen klopp said he has no issue with the player, despite the forward handing in a transfer request amid interest from barcelona. the liverpool manager says coutinho is still not fully fit and won‘t be risked with a long season ahead. he came in yesterday, accepted 100% the situation, it wasn‘t even that i had to say something about it, it‘s just the situation. and now i really think we all should use the situation, we have a wonderful player in our squad who wants to get fit and who wants to play for this club. we know about nobody how long

he will play for the club, sometimes we want to send players away and sometimes players think about their future also, that‘s the normal situation, so it‘s absolutely no problem. yes, i‘m really completely fine with the situation. it‘s not been a good night for the city of hull, as we‘ve heard their football team lost 5—0 at derby and there was an agonising defeat for hull fc in the super league super 8s this evening. they staged an astonishing comeback against wigan with just 12 men but couldn‘t see it out, as adam wild reports. it is less than a fortnight since hull met wigan in the challenge cup final. but plenty of schools still to settle. hull won at wembley. the same player repeating history. another show of strength from this winger. neither side could claim they haven‘t been warned. still, they haven‘t been warned. still, they say familiarity breeds contempt, that tempered at times.
11:53 pm
this elbow brought a red card for liam watson. if the first half was a scrap, the second was breathtaking. tom davis helping wigan to a 14 point lead. hull had a rare sense of spirit. this try giving them all hope. they thought they did enough to win. with just moments hope. they thought they did enough to win. withjust moments remaining, the extra man finally told. the second try for this player. also tonight, castleford tigers increased their lead at the top to 12 points with a 38—24 win over second—placed leeds rhinos. it might be early in the season, but it‘s newcastle falcons who top rugby union‘s premiership tonight, temporarily at least, after a late penalty try gave them a 13—12 win at sale. they were 12—6 down when machones was adjudged to have illegally collapsed a maul. in addition to nine points from the boot of sonotane takulua, it takes newcastle top

after their opening weekend win over worcester. edinburgh and leinster both made it two wins from two tonight in the pro 14. leinster beat cardiff 37—9, whilst sam hidalgo clyne scored the pick of the tries in edinburgh‘s 35—18 win over dragons. chris froome stands on the brink of history after safely negotiating today‘s 19th stage of the vuelta a espana. he maintained his lead and remains on course to become only the third man to win the tour de france and vuelta in the same year. it was a day for the breakaway today, with belgium‘s thomas de gendt taking the win. froome finished alongside his rivals in the peleton. with two stages remaining, one largely ceremonial, he leads vincenzo nibali by1 minute 37 seconds. if he comes through tomorrow‘s stage then he will become the first man to win both grand tours in the same season since 1978. that‘s all from sportsday. from mejohn watson and the rest of the team, have a good night. it's
