tea m top. but it is clear for us as a team that we need to be at our best and play well in the next five games. the next team are a dangerous team, they have shown they can win at any day but we need to play better cricket. if we do that and the results start happening then this team will get a lot of confidence from that for the later stages. on tuesday, sri lanka face banglasdesh in bristol — with both sides looking to claim their second victory of the tournament. the sri lankans were frustrated last time out when their match against pakistan was abandoned without a ball being bowled — only the third complete washout in world cup history. prior to that, they were thrashed by new zealand — before edging out afghanistan in their second match, and they‘ re desperate to get going again. to be here five or six days ago and not have a chance to play was frustrating but we're still off the win against afghanistan we needed that because we were a little low before that. in effect we are still off the back of the last wind. we

it has been dragging cold air all the way from the north across the uk, france and into spain, whereas this side of europe, warm air has been coming from the south, affecting central and eastern areas, so warsaw, for example, has been in excess of 30 degrees, when it was only 12 degrees in london. on tuesday, the early hours, rain across most of northern england, the midlands, wales, the south—west, just about starting to dry out in the extreme south—east, but no real rainfall across scotland and northern ireland except for a few showers. in fact, first thing in the morning there will probably be some sunshine in belfast, glasgow and edinburgh. the weather front is stuck. in fact, the whole weather pattern across europe is stuck, it is not moving or moving very slowly. through tuesday, this band of weather, band of heavy rain, will very slowly drift, at a glacial pace it will move its way towards the north. it will continue to rain across yorkshire all

through the day, the north—west of england, wales, the south—west, it sort of curls back into the centre of the low. the south—east will see sunshine and heavy showers. in the north of the country there will be some sunshine around. at times it will be cloudy, but dry at least. on wednesday, the weather system is still with us, a sense of things spiralling very slowly around, and again, more heavy showers being pushed into the uk, so again, it continues to remain very wet across many parts of the country into wednesday. wednesday and thursday, the low pressure is still with us, so this pattern is not in a hurry to change. it will be on the cool side, in fact, as far as the rest of the week is concerned very little change really, at times will be quite windy as well.
