where england are looking to make it two winds out of two at the cricket world cup, but if they are going to do that they need to set a world cup record, because pakistan hit 348 off their 50 overs. our correspondent andy swiss is at the ground. andy, the chase is on! we have the centuries from root and butler come about in the last 20 minutes or so, they've just come a little bit on stock in that chase. yes, ali, what a feeling thrilling finish we have in store, it's been terrific entertainment for the crowd, bearing in mind that fans would've arrived here in a mood, they're the world number one, pakistan was thrashed in their opening match here in the west indies. so they would've been pretty confident, so you can imagine their surprise when pakistan's batsmen came out, hitting it all around the place, knocked up 340 —— 348, england got off to a pretty sticky

start, but as you mentioned, though centuries from butler and root have given them a chance, but it is heading right to the wire, as patrick gearing our reports. if you go by foreman figures, pakistan had no chance in this, but that's what they want you to think. no other cricketing nations swings so no other cricketing nations swings so freely from low to high having lost all ten wickets for 105 on friday, they now made 82 without losing one. mohammed embodied the spirit, this was his first ball. no need for a second look. they were doing this remember against the worlds number one side, the side not used to being put under any real pressure, but under the spotlight unlikely flaws showed. jason roy became the cringing face of england's bad day in the field. he made another 70 rounds before chris finally got hold of him. pakistan still had enough wind in their sales to set a world cup record of 349. no

wonder 0wen morgan was practising his batting, it didn't help him here. the captain led batsman to for early, it was when pakistan missed that mattered. joe root had been dropped on ten, and made good on his escape steering his way to the first century of this world cup. england are and could buy their route, so it was into the reaction when pakistan finally dug him out. they knew how much closer to victory that had taken them, but one man remained in their path, with the shots, just butler became the second centurion, the salvation muted, as there was work still to do. he wouldn't be around to do it. is this the moment pakistan shook up the world cup? patrick geary, bbc news. this match is heading right to the wire, the latest i can tell you is england needs 36 to win the last 16 balls. chris walks and mowing allie

at the crease for england, so it is going to be incredibly tight. england will be disappointed with the way they perform, particularly in the field, those dropped catches, those missed opportunities, and indeed the way they started their innings, but butler and root two terrific centuries from them, if they can put off of victory in this circumstance, just imagine what it will do for england's confidence going further into the tournament. the one thing we can be sure of it's been a terrific spectacle, fantastic entertainment for this crowd. but as we head into the very closing overs, england needing 36 to win of the last 16 balls it's going to be very tight 0llie. it is going to be, a indie swiss, our correspondent. we will have the results for you later in the programme. to a half overs to 90, in the programme. to a half overs to go, or something like that. caster semenya's legal team claim that the swiss federal supreme court has upheld her appeal against the iaaf rules that would force her to take medication to reduce her levels of testosterone to race in the 800 metres.

her preferred distance. she is the double olympic and triple world champion over the distance. let's speak to our sports news correspondent, alex ca pstick. joining us from our london newsroom. alex, this is going to get messy, because the iaaf thought they had won this one, with the court of arbitration for sport finding in their favour a few weeks ago. what's going on here? yes, you are right, they did think they had won this case, and perhaps that will be the end of the matter. but they are still rambling on, because her and her legal team appealed to the swiss supreme court, they are allowed to do that, because the course of arbitration of the sport is based in switzerland. it really is the last chance for them, and referred today from their lawyers, statement they released saying that the swiss judges have decided to suspend that ruling you are talking about, the ruling you are talking about, the ruling that other athletes with

conditions like her to suppress their natural occurring testosterone levels. the suspension comes with an immediate effect, that means she's allowed to run in any event she likes, they'd hundred metres, 1500 metres, her preferred events. of course the elliptic champion in the 800 metres, as you can do that without taking testosterone blockers. have we heard from the i-aa off blockers. have we heard from the i—aa off yet regarding this?” blockers. have we heard from the i-aa off yet regarding this? i did speak to the i—aa f a while ago, when he spoke to them they had not heard from the swiss courts, and that they were surprised that this statement had been released. they we re statement had been released. they were looking into it, they were going to get their lawyers to talk to the swissjudges, going to get their lawyers to talk to the swiss judges, and what we understand is that the swiss judges will wait for the i—aa f to submit their response to give their findings, or their their response to give their findings, ortheirarguments concerning this case, and there will be further movement on this, for the decision on around june the 25th. we have had sony organisations get involved in this case over the last

few weeks, alex, people who have basically say that is her legal team and herself has said, her basic human rights have been violated here. it's ten years since she became a world champion for the first time and had to undergo all of these sex tests. there's an awful lot of at stake here for women's sports, isn't there, as to how this really goes? it is. it was described asa really goes? it is. it was described as a landmark ruling when the courts of arbitration basically agreed with the iaaf that, you know, they said it was discriminatory, this rule. they also said that was necessary to protect the integrity of female sports, and this is what the swiss supreme court will be looking at, what's at stake here, as you mentioned from the semenya side, it's just mentioned from the semenya side, it'sjust common mentioned from the semenya side, it's just common nation, mentioned from the semenya side, it'sjust common nation, she's been discriminated against, and athletes like her, because of this ruling. that's why they wanted to be overturned. semenya from her parts, she is a very short and saying she

think the swissjudges she is a very short and saying she think the swiss judges for this decision and hope that following an appeal, they will, she will again be able to run free. and that means running without taking testosterone blockers. 0k, alex thank you for 110w. blockers. 0k, alex thank you for now. our sports news correspondent, many thanks indeed. to tennis now. rafa nadal may be the king of roland garros but novak djokovic made a little bit of french open history today. he is into the quarterfinals for the 10th year in a row, the first man to achieve that. in the women's draw, where the top seeds have been falling, the defending champion simona halep had a very straight—forward win. rhia chohan has the best of today's play. if you thought rafael the doll was the paperfor this if you thought rafael the doll was the paper for this tournament, if you thought rafael the doll was the paperfor this tournament, think again, no djokovic has been on cruise control, so the kuester was could he even take a set off this quy: could he even take a set off this guy, because the world number one hasn't dropped on this french open. well, he tried, but perfection like

this is for the perfect record. a breathtaking opening, set the tone for this match. easy pc. the duel for this match. easy pc. the duel for who would play djokovic went to tie—break, alexander and an injured fabio went for almost three hours. the italian couldn't find his form, and he made it his second consecutive quarter final. this and he made it his second consecutive quarterfinal. this is what it meant. meanwhile, speedy gale show that french tennis was still breathing here. but it wasn't enough, as dominic team produced his performance of the tournament, and his shot of the tournament, the shots of the tournament. and the women's defending champion, how up, didn't waste any time today, all it took was 45 minutes to sweep aside polish teenager, wishing the last... bbc news. so that is the best of the actions

so so that is the best of the actions so far in paris, let's head there to speak to our tennis correspondent, russell fuller, evening to russell, we will chat about who plays tomorrow, some encouraging news first about andy murray as we start thinking about the grass court season. season. very encouraging indeed, 0lly, he's on the been back in full training for two weeks, but we now know that he is going to be playing in the doubles at the queen's club in london in two weeks' time, and murray is going to be partnering with lopez who is the singles champion in 2017. we knew this was coming, it because rather tantalising over the weekend, on his instagram feed, murray posted a short video of himself serving on grass, so we are just waiting for the final piece of the jigsaw to fall into place. the front to back this afternoon the name lopez emerged, and as a pair, they have direct entry into the main doubles draw of queens, and assuming there are no setbacks, as murray recovers from that hip surgery, he will be hitting the grass, hitting the courts again, just for a half months

after surgery. a great treat for the queens crowds there, i can see you had a nice patch of grass they are among the clay in paris. very appropriate. nowjoe, a massive day for her tomorrow permits the quarterfinal line—up just begins to be completed today. she's got sloane stephens, lester's runner—up, tomorrow. you might guess, this is the first match that she has played in the french open, where she will be the underdog. she has beaten sloane stephens twice, both this yearin sloane stephens twice, both this year in brisbane at the start of year, and then again in rome, last month on of what's into breezy day. but she knows that sloane stephens is an altogether trip —— different prospect. she was the runner up here in paris last year, she's got a big forehand, she's great mover. it doesn't mean she can't win, but sloane stephens is the favourite for this match, but what an opportunity for her, who would've thought that she would be one match away, one win away from reaching the french open semi finals. indeed she hasn't had a

great run on clay this season. many things indeed, russell fuller there in paris. let's have a quick whiz at some of the day's other headlines. liverpool are keen to offer jurgen klopp another contract extension. he's halfway through a six year deal but after that champions league win at the weekend the club want him to stay beyond 2022. kieran trippier could have played his last game for spurs, he says he wants to stay in england but has been linked with teams in italy and spain. he says he'll have talks with the club about his future in pre—season. former tottenham fa cup winner and leyton orient manager, justin edinburgh, has been admitted to hospital after being suddenly taken ill this morning. 0rient were promoted to league 2 after winning the national league this season the former england lionesses defender, laura bassett, has retrired from the game. the 35—year—old won 61 caps for her country. she scored an own goal at the last world cup that sealed their semifinal defeat to japan. and the funeral of the former arsenal forward, jose antonio reyes, has been held in his home town of utrera in southern spain today.

the 35—year—old was killed in a car crash over the weekend. the netball world cup takes place in liverpool next month, it will be the last tournament for tracy neville, who is standing down to start a family. she's been in the post for four years, the highlight being commonwealth gold last year, a formal player temps and greenway has also had great success as a coach. former roses player tamsin greenway who has also had great success as a coach with surrey and wasps in the superleague, is one of the candidates to take over and i spoke to her earlier. yamaguchi and the team have achieved in the last four years has been a cripple for the sport both on and off the court. when you are listening to her reasons about starting a family, you have to understand that international netball is a four year cycle, it's not something that you can just sort of dip in and out of, it will be a build up to the next world cup, i'm surprised she stepping down, because of the great his job you can have if you want to be a coach, but i

totally respect your decision. the timing of it a month before the world cup how do you think that might distract or affect preparations may be? might distract or affect preparations may be ?|j might distract or affect preparations may be? i think it's a great decision for her to come out now and say this, because look, the reality is netball continues after the world cup, the squad will carry on after that competition, and so this actually gives england a lot of time to prepare, gives the players a clear mind of what's going to happen after. she will be the only one in that squad that's thinking about what happens after this world cup. there will be other player retirements, and so i think this is a real honest account. it of course wa nt affect a real honest account. it of course want affect their performance of when i left the wasps, it was a decision i'd been, and i spoke to the player six months out, because they've got to make those choices about what they do long—term as well, so i think it was a great choice from her, it gets rid of all the questions that will come in and around the competition. they can just now focus on going on to win it. you know all aboutjuggling professional sport and motherhood. but you are a front runner to take over. i have done some great achievements at super league level, and coaching england would be a dreamjob, and coaching england would be a dream job, but it's all about timing, andi dream job, but it's all about timing, and i think there will be some great names in the mix for this

job, and we will sue happens. isa job, and we will sue happens. is a bad timing for you, or do you thank you would be able to do it? thatjob will be one that will a lwa ys thatjob will be one that will always be difficult to turn down, and whatever opportunity came along. you know, tracy neville spoke about family commitments, i have a 60, and i have another on the way, so we will see what happens. i thank you never write yourself off when it's a coaching job, but yet, there is lots of other things that will be going on in the next few months, and i think england has got a great opportunity now to look at who will be that person to take england on the next journey. you or somebody else with new players coming through and the core of that squad, how good do you think this england team can become? they are one of the favourites, and they could easily come away with the gold, which is what we are all hoping for, and i think this year has definitely seen an increase in the talent that we've got coming through. the amount of players that have been picked to players that have been picked to play overseas, and of course new players coming into the squad, it's in kabulfor the players coming into the squad, it's in kabul for the sports, players coming into the squad, it's in kabulfor the sports, and you know, we've got to play to enact pay massive tribute to tracy neville and what they've done over the last four yea rs, what they've done over the last four years, because they have scarcely changed our game. still to come on

sports day, what now for antony joshua? and the heavyweight division following that sharp defeat over the weekend in new york. england's cricketers have just lost their second world cup match, losing to pakistan by 14 runs in trent bridge, more reaction to that later on bbc news, but the loss was the last real chance, and they have lost by 14 runs, and pakistan breathe life into their tournament, england are now 1-1, their tournament, england are now 1—1, and lost one, a fantastic match there at trench bridge. staying with cricket, monty panesar, remember him, 167 wickets in 50 tests, he was an ashes winner, he was a cult figure, but then things went downhill. mental issues, paranoia, and anxiety saw his career unravel. he was released by sussex after a drunken night out that saw

fined by police for urinating on a nightclub bouncer, spells at northants and essex didn't last either. he last played for his country six years ago, but he's looking fit and well, he's written a book, the full monty, what else, and at the age of 37 still thinks he has something to offer the game, the game that almost broke him. as sportspeople, we put so much pressure on us, because there's so much expectation, the fear of failure, we want to do the best we can, prepare, iwouldn't failure, we want to do the best we can, prepare, i wouldn't say prepare, every eventuality, and you arejust, fully prepared prepare, every eventuality, and you are just, fully prepared for every game. so you can perform at your best. and that sometimes pressure, that hardness, can actually affect the mind, and it's important that at times you are kind to yourself, like of spoken to the rugby players. football players. they are like 3—4 weeks away on tour is a long time. we are way for like 2—3 months, and

that allows to be, that allows for you to be isolated. you actually once you get isolated amongst yourself, that is really where you start, you can start having these conversations with yourself, where you have self—doubt, and like depression, it's really like, i would say like the isolation is really the bacteria for, for you to have these negative feelings, negative emotions, and start creating these kind of, may be mental illnesses that you thank you have, and to really, you know, go into that route, and i would say that, you know, you have to work on your social capital. have healthy friendships, healthy family relationships. healthy relationships with your team—mates. so if you ever feel slightly off—line, you know you can feel slightly off—line, you know you ca n always feel slightly off—line, you know you can always talk about it, and to be honest maybe with a trusted team a that you have on the team. do you think sports, all sports are in a better place now to deal with mental issues than they were perhaps when you started to feel things
