because england's women's squad has been announced for the first two of the three match odi series against the west indies. england arejust england are just two wins away from qualifying for the 2021 world cup. earlier, ispoke away from qualifying for the 2021 world cup. earlier, i spoke to the england captain about the selections. we missed a few in at that tour in sri lanka and india which we had recently. we managed to be very successful out there without those players. but it is great to have pretty much a full—strength side. we have a couple missing to injury. she won't be fit for this tour. kirsty gordon and katie george as well have had not enough chance to prove their fitness to make the squad. sarah taylor, she missed the world twenty20 back in november, that was to help manage her anxiety issues. how do you as a captain and the management team there as well help her through what could be a

high—pressure summer? what is very little change? it is managing it like any other injury. we have to deal with other players who have recurring injuries and things like that. it is finding a way to best manage the player to get them in the right place and state of mind to be able to play. we have got, as a squad, we have got good at dealing with that and being able to take the pressure off whether it be sarah or any other player. we are ultimately trying to pick the best side that we can to win games of cricket. that three match 0di series with the west indies begins on thursday, there is a focus there in terms of world cup qualification. how do you approach it? they have some very destructive players who play the west indian way. it can be consistent. when they are at the top of their game, they are at the top of their game, they area are at the top of their game, they are a very challenging team to play against. we are respecting them to play at the top of the game every match and we will try to nullify their threats. it is about trying to approach every game as it comes and try to be successful in those games

and put in strong performances. we are coming off the back of a very good run in the subcontinent winning ten games on the bounce. against sri la nka ten games on the bounce. against sri lanka and india. we are looking to ta ke lanka and india. we are looking to take the momentum from the summer and hits the ground running. will try secure the qualification and obviously after the west indies trip, we have the big cash is coming up. it will be a busy summer. just before we go, afghanistan needing 52 i’u ns before we go, afghanistan needing 52 runs from 67 balls. follow that on the bbc sport website. more throughout the evening. goodbye. let's get more on the news that the backbench conservative group in 1922 committee have changed the rules for the leadership race. the changes mean that any candidate would need the support of eight mps to get on the ballot. candidates

would need to win a 5% of the vote in the first round of voting to go through to round two. that means they would need the backing of 16 mps. in the second round, 10% of votes will be needed and that would be 32 mp5. already, two candidates who said they would stand, kit malthouse and james cleverly, have withdrawn from the race. let's talk 110w withdrawn from the race. let's talk now to our chief political correspondent, vicki young, who joins us from westminster. these changes have been agreed in the last half an hour or so. what happens next? we had the formal confirmation from the conservative party who have accepted these recommendations. i think, partly, they have changed the way it has happened before because there is such a large field. it went up there is such a large field. it went up to 13 at one point, it has now gone back down to 11. there are some concerns that this could go on for quite some time. in previous occasions, they have held the balance on a tuesday and thursday.

if you are looking at four rounds, it could get take a couple of weeks. what they are saying is that the first round will be held on thursday the 13th of june, first round will be held on thursday the 13th ofjune, then further buyouts are scheduled for the 18th, 19th, and 20th if they are required. it means it is quite a bit harder foran mp to it means it is quite a bit harder for an mp to take part in it in the first place, they will have to get backis first place, they will have to get back is because not all are there. two have already dropped out. we will see if any others follow suit. then it means that notjust the one who comes bottom has to drop out, you have to reach a threshold. meanwhile, the relatively new political party change uk has lost six of its mps, they have departed. i wonder what your take was on the implications, not just for the party, but for the wider political landscape? it is obviously a massive blow for them, they launched back in february just four blow for them, they launched back in februaryjust four months ago with huge fanfare, defections from the labour and conservatives, they were hoping to make an impact, to change

that politics works and coalescing around the idea of a second referendum on brexit. and campaigning to stay in. theyjust weren't able to break through. that is partly because the liberal democrats did so well in the local elections that then gave them a boost for the european elections and change uk in the end only getting about 3% of the vote. really, they needed that momentum to carry them forward in order to encourage others to come to the party. it hasn't happened, i think there has been recriminations and criticising each other over things that went wrong. for example, the logo, that wasn't very clear about how that would work. their name was confusing, it seemed to change several times. now you end up with anna soubry as the new leader, she is a former conservative mp leading a parliamentary party which consists of former labour mps. it is going to be very difficult for them now, they say they are determined to carry on. but those who have left including duke and moon are making the point that those who want to campaign to

stay in the eu needs to get together. the question is whether those other mp5 who are sitting as independents decide to join the liberal democrats. unsurprisingly, the lib dems are saying they have had thousands of new members joining and that they would welcome any new mps who want to do so as well. so anna soubry the new leader at change uk, what about the new leader of the conservative party? who is your money on, and when would a new leader be in place? i am not going to predict who will be the next leader. thanks for the question. the new leader will be in place, i think they are saying the 22nd ofjuly, that we get some point. if you are looking at the declared numbers, it seems that borisjohnson, michael gove are the ones out in front, dominic rob and matt hancock, they are the ones who would be quite confident. jeremy hunt as well, they will be the ones who think they will get through the first round, if not the first two. the reason it is so

unpredictable is because once someone unpredictable is because once someone drops out, all eyes are on wed of their supporters go. you have a frantic moving around when he will drop out. it is hard to predict, you have people supporting people you won't might not expect, liam fox, a big brexiteer supporting jeremy hunt the former foreign secretary for example. we have seen today donald trump giving his views on some of them, and also meeting some of them face—to—face. it depends whether people think the endorsement of donald trump is a positive or a negative. i think people think that if borisjohnson negative. i think people think that if boris johnson is negative. i think people think that if borisjohnson is able to get onto that ballot paper is one of the final two, which is when the tory party must will decide, then he is going to have a very big chancel will be very difficult to stop. very good to talk to you. vicki young, our chief political correspondent in westminster. let's catch up with the weather now, stan has the forecast. there was a cloud and wet day today with the heaviest

rain towards western areas. 0vernight, the pressure will move northward meaning that rain will become confined to more northern parts of the uk. scotland and northern ireland were lots of rain for wilful here and parts of northern england. elsewhere, and will be a drier story for much of and wales with clear skies and a mr patch is developing. nowhere will be particularly cold. as we start wednesday off on a brighter note, much of england and wales will have sunshine and it will turn hazy. scotla nd sunshine and it will turn hazy. scotland and northern ireland holding onto the cloud, outbreaks of rain. the south—west of england will be quite heavy. drier weather further east where we could see 20 or 21 degrees. call in at the north. through friday, it looks like we could see another area of low pressure bringing rain to central, southern and eastern areas. into the weekend, it stays unsettled. there will be sunshine too.

you're watching beyond 100 days... donald trump dishes out comedy and camaraderie as he shares a stage with theresa may for the last time. the president heaped praise on the prime minister, notably on her handling of brexit, marking a change of tune from his last visit to the uk. standing side by side the two leaders said they discussed their differences but stressed the great relationship between the uk and the us. it is the greatest alliance the world has ever known. thank you, prime minister. there was also talk of a future trade deal with the uk
