point promised much but delivered only more disappointment. andy swiss, bbc news. the england captain eoin morgan was honest in his assesment of the defeat. we made mistakes and india bowled well. for the majority of today�*s game we played really well. it�*s a shame we couldn�*t build on the bowling unit�*s effort to restrict india to 318. two fantastic openers upfront. we failed to continue to build partnerships from there. that was what happened, really. the british and irish lions will tour south africa this summer after plans to host it elsewhere were all rejected. the possibility of switching the tour to britain and ireland or even hosting it in australia had been raised due to the covid pandemic but was ruled out.

for over 20 clubs scoring 266 goals in almost 900 appearances. patrick gearey reports. some footballers make you nod and applaud. frank worthington had the power to make you gasp. what a beautiful worthington goal! in a team game, he was one of the most fluorescent of individuals. in his pee, the hair was long, the nights out longer. in his peak, the hair was long, the nights out longer. a former manager called him the working man�*s george best. worthington�*s real hero was the king. he copied elvis�*s sideburns and swagger. beginning at huddersfield town. in 1972 came the fork in the road. he went up to sign for liverpool but failed a medical with high blood pressure. the subject of plenty of stories since. instead hejoined the leicester city fc and this was a time when being skilful meant being brave.

and worthington�*s ability marked him out as a potential england striker. he did play for his country, scoring twice and when he ate caps. scoring twice and winning 8 caps. but many play he just feel he should have played more. eventually he left leicester for bolton where he made quite an impression on a young peter read. he walked in, tightjeans, and a bright purple shirt. he looked like elvis presley, and it was like the king walking into a dressing room. charismatic, great aura about him, and a really top class footballer. he was a great fella. worthington. in the 1978—79 session, bolton struggled but worthington won the golden boot. won the golden boot. worthington! and though he had many loves in life, football always came first. he kept playing for birmingham, leeds, sunderland, southampton, brighton — the list went on. he was into his mid—40s

before he stopped. i�*ve never taken the game seriously enough to not enjoy the game. i feel people take the game too seriously, i believe the game is there to be enjoyed. and for the fancy pay to come and enjoy. i don't think he'll ever want to give up, whether he's 91, 41, 51, he'll play for anyone for any reason. he loves it, he always has and always will. when he was a kid, he'll go straight through them. he'll be doing it with a walking stick. unsurprisingly he took to speaking after retirement, he certainly had enough stories to tell. football today is remeasuring a true one off. remembering a true one off. gary lineker tweeted he was his boyhood hero at leciseter, saying he was "a beautiful footballer and a charismatic character. a man of soul, goals and rock and roll. and of course more on that and everything else you can head to the bbc sport website.

and that�*s all the sport for now. hello there. the weather story has been fairly straightforward in recent days, with high pressure keeping things dry and quiet. but the weather story is changing. it�*s turning quite messy over the next few days, rain or blustery showers, then a brief cold spell for all of us on friday. the first sign of trouble is moving its way across the uk — it�*s this weather front. weakening all the time, but still likely to produce a band of cloud and rain, and opening the door for some pretty blustery winds and squally showers to come, as well. so if we draw a line really from the bristol channel over towards lincolnshire, anywhere south and east of that quite cloudy, with light patchy rain. sunshine to follow on behind, and then as we go through the afternoon a band of organised showers develops into western scotland and northern ireland. 8 to 11 degrees high here, but we could see 13, possibly 14 where we get some sunshine coming through. as we move out of wednesday,
11:56 pm
that line of showers will drift its way steadily south and east, so there will be some showers through the night. we start off thursday with temperatures low single figures where the cloud has broken up, but generally quite a lot of cloud around, keeping those temperatures up to between 5 and 7 degrees. thursday is going to be a blustery day with sunshine and showers. we�*re waiting for this area of low pressure and front to move in for friday. but on the whole, thursday will start off dry with some early sunshine. showers will become widespread out from the west and they�*ll be driven along by some blustery winds as well. these are the average wind speeds through the day. so noticeable if you�*re out there, with a top temperature of between 10 and 14 celsius. but it�*s thursday night into friday when this cold front is expected to arrive. it will bring some rain with it as it does so, but it�*s the strength of the wind and the direction of the wind following on behind, driving in a cooler source of air right across the country, and so that means that the showers will be wintry in nature
11:57 pm
anywhere above 200m. by that i mean some snow, maybe some hail mixed in there as well. a blustery wind as well through the day, gusts slightly in excess of 30, close to 40 miles an hour in places. that�*s going to take the edge off the feel of things. even in the sunshine, we�*re going to see those temperatures struggle across many areas to get into double figures, but we could see highs of 12 or 13. now, as we move through the weekend, we�*ve got high pressure to the south and these low pressures pushing in across the north, so saturday will be a relatively quiet day. there should be a good deal of drier weather in the forecast, with showers developing out to the west, but it does look likely that we�*ll see a weather front arriving later on. 9 to 12 the high. sunday we could see more significant rain in the forecast because this frontal system will move through, across scotland, northern ireland and parts of wales in particular. so yes, there�*s going to be some rain around for the second half of the weekend. perhaps the driest and the sunniest of the weather will be
11:58 pm
through the midlands, east anglia and south—east england. highs of 40 degrees here, so warmer to the south of that weather front, cooler and wet into the far north. now it looks likely that that low pressure should ease away and high pressure potentially starts to build as we go through the week. and we could see something just that little bit warmer developing as well. so after a pretty unsettled second half of the weekend, particularly in the north—west, wind and rain will gradually ease, high pressure will return, and we�*ll see something drier and warmer, with temperature slightly above the average, if we�*re lucky.
