6:40 pm
this morning just to avoid those high temperatures. you heard from lauren hamm, she was talking about the team wearing ice jackets and taking measures to make sure they were hydrated. care will says there's been a lot more of the girls using the ice bucket than usual as well for the i think the team are just doing all they can to reduce dehydration risks and trying to prepare as best they can in this ridiculously hot weather. spain, you think they would be pretty used to it but certainly nobody expected this kind of a weather in england, did they? this kind of a weather in england, did the ? ., , did they? certainly did it. thankfully _ did they? certainly did it. thankfully it _ did they? certainly did it. thankfully it will - did they? certainly did it. thankfully it will be - did they? certainly did it. thankfully it will be a - did they? certainly did it. | thankfully it will be a little did they? certainly did it. - thankfully it will be a little bit cooler, we hope on wednesday. the dreaded ice buckets. what about the dreaded ice buckets. what about the dreaded penalties? obviously, the better factor that in. now that they're into the knockout stage. yes, penalty shoot—out, that can obviously happen in the knockout stages with up the english team have been preparing for that before the tournament so this is nothing new, they have escalated those
6:41 pm
preparations now that they are into the quarterfinals with up serena v said last week that that was something that was in the back of their mind, lauren hamp was talking about it again today, she said the team feels confident, they've done all they can to prepare for that situation. it willjust come down to whoever can hold their nerve on the day. she did say a lot of the squad are experienced for that we'd seen the likes of manchester city, arsenal players they're used to playing at the fa cup finals weather has been shoot—out in the past without you think a lot of this team are used to that scenario but who knows? penalty shoot—out in england, a bit of a thing in major tournaments, is in a? �* , ., , ., tournaments, is in a? let's hope not on wednesday _ tournaments, is in a? let's hope not on wednesday night. _ tournaments, is in a? let's hope not on wednesday night. should - tournaments, is in a? let's hope not on wednesday night. should be - tournaments, is in a? let's hope not on wednesday night. should be a . on wednesday night. should be a cracking game. you've been in bedded with the england squad and the whole set up for the past three or four weeks. how have you gauge the mood now going into a home quarter final? i think generally all the players are excited. this is a real
6:42 pm
opportunity for them to show what they can do in the quarterfinal. i think the expectation levels are very high was about something that serena vietminh and her staff have been good at is just keeping the players calm, keeping that composure and not letting them get too carried away. the team could have been on a real high after that 8—0 win over norway in the second game and they seem to calm themselves down to get the job done against northern ireland and the final game. i think going into this quarter final bill approach it in the same way with a lot of confidence, a lot of belief but also a bit of composure and calmness. they know that there's still a long way to go in this tournament. yes, it's only a couple of matches but it is still a long way to go. i think theyjust need to remain calm going into that game and make sure they can deal with the day. make sure they can deal with the da . ., ,. , ., ., day. emma sanders, the england team hq. a day. emma sanders, the england team hq- a coople — day. emma sanders, the england team hq- a coople of— day. emma sanders, the england team hq. a couple of games _ day. emma sanders, the england team hq. a couple of games tonight, - h0. a couple of games tonight, france already qualified for the quarters. they've got iceland, that

6:44 pm
now been shown firmly on this link between football and brain disease. it was at the west from strikers corner inquests in 2002 that a coroner said the reason thatjeff died was because of dementia that was also caused because of repeated heading of a football. since then research has shown that former professional footballers are both three and half times more likely to develop a brain disease compared to other people the same age in the general population put up really this has been a longtime coming. today we heard from the fa that from this season coming there's going to be a ban on deliberate heading of footballs at under 12 levels and below. that the county games and school games and if successful that band will be made permanent next season. this isn't the first we've heard about this, and her love and not to head in training. and coaches recommended by the football association that they should be limiting the number of headache

6:46 pm
is a lot of ways that can cause dementia but it's a good example of a potential way to mitigate this and they said it needs to be weighed up of course with the potential health benefits of sport.— benefits of sport. many thanks indeed. teams _ benefits of sport. many thanks indeed. teams and _ benefits of sport. many thanks indeed. teams and clubs - benefits of sport. many thanks indeed. teams and clubs and i benefits of sport. many thanks - indeed. teams and clubs and counties don't have to take this up up next season but they are being invited to. up next season but they are being invited to. i've spoken to a former youth coach at letchworth eagles in hertfordshire, that's where arsenals jack wilshere first started playing. he thinks that the heading ban can only be a good thing. i think it could have a positive impact, actually. the ball will stay the floor bit more, the boys more technical and the girls, obviously. it would take some of the physical element away from the game and maybe evenit element away from the game and maybe even it a bit more equal than the slightly less developed children. how do you think under 12 across the
6:47 pm
country will respond to this? i think all youth is always a slight backlash. the old school people thinking it we've always done this, don't like change. but i think the people have got the children's health in mind. in it's a many positive things.— health in mind. in it's a many positive things. when you look at the details of _ positive things. when you look at the details of a _ positive things. when you look at the details of a football _ positive things. when you look at the details of a football match, . positive things. when you look at l the details of a football match, you have to rethink how you play, corners, crossing into the box. yes. i think corners, crossing into the box. yes. i think the — corners, crossing into the box. yes. i think the short — corners, crossing into the box. yes. i think the short corner _ corners, crossing into the box. jazz i think the short corner will become more of a technical element of the game. maybe teams will concentrate more on that. that game. maybe teams will concentrate more on that-— more on that. at the heart of this is the faa's concerns _ more on that. at the heart of this is the faa's concerns about - more on that. at the heart of this is the faa's concerns about the i is the faa's concerns about the health of football players, of course. . ~' f health of football players, of course. , ~ j ., course. yes. i think they've always can be taken _ course. yes. i think they've always can be taken into _ course. yes. i think they've always can be taken into account. - course. yes. i think they've always can be taken into account. this - course. yes. i think they've always can be taken into account. this is i course. yes. i think they've always| can be taken into account. this is a quite a few studies at the moment of heading the ball and if that can be taken away from the game it can only be a positive thing. what taken away from the game it can only be a positive thing.— be a positive thing. what could you see happening _ be a positive thing. what could you see happening when _ be a positive thing. what could you see happening when obviously - be a positive thing. what could you see happening when obviously you | be a positive thing. what could you i see happening when obviously you go to the next age group and suddenly

6:49 pm
second test victory. jones— who is australian— was involved in two altercations with supporters who called him a "traitor". andy marinos says the comments were "unacceptable" and "not representative of the values of rugby". lancashire and england seamer saqib mahmood has signed a new two—year deal with the club. the 25 year old had been linked with a move to warwickshire. mahmood injured his back in may and will miss the rest of the season. the england test captain, ben stokes says that playing three formats of cricket is unsustainable so he's going to retire from one day internationals. he will continue to play t20's but his last odi will be tomorows series opener against south africa in durham his home ground. henry moeran from the test match special. really tough decision, he admitted that because he has been a huge part of that team success in audio eyes for the last decade. ihe of that team success in audio eyes for the last decade.— for the last decade. he has and a hue art for the last decade. he has and a huge part of— for the last decade. he has and a huge part of this _ for the last decade. he has and a huge part of this revolution - for the last decade. he has and a huge part of this revolution that l huge part of this revolution that was overseen really by owen morgan,
6:50 pm
post at disastrous world cup in 2015. when we heard the news this morning it was one of those where you seem shocked initially and then after a few minutes you perhaps start to put the pieces together a little bit. it is understandable, just by virtue of the nature of 50 over cricket. it's a huge burden on the players to play it. it's a format that while not necessarily quite what it was, it still loved by many that watch the game and loved by the broadcasters, you've got eight hours worth of cricket in there for eight hours worth of commercial opportunity. only a basement in the world of the set up of world cricket. i think for players it is a huge burden. and particularly giving the amount of cricket that is played poetically by this and go inside, if you look across a summerfrom this and go inside, if you look across a summer from the start of the first test match in june through to the final, 103 days, 44 of those days are days of cricket for england's men's side. that's excluding the travel. if you play all four you are playing a huge
6:51 pm
amount of cricket even before you're looking at things like the 100 and any domestic cricket. it's understandable, he says he wants to focus on his work with the test site and is still plenty 20 cricket. given the fact that he's played over a hundred times in this format it starts to make a little more sense. some pretty special trinkets to take away from his odi career, world cup winner in that match when he knocked lords in the final against new zealand, at least getting them to that super over. for those who think it might be odd to bow out in the opening match of a new series, into durham, it's his own ground, it'll be a fantastic sendoff.— be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense _ be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense when _ be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense when you _ be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense when you look- be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense when you look at - be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does make sense when you look at it i be a fantastic sendoff. yes, does i make sense when you look at it like that. this part of the world, hugely passionate about cricket and hugely proud of what the likes of mark wood and ben stokes have done in england came in last decade. it promises to be a special atmosphere. he had the thoughts and looked at the counter and thought, this is a perfect opportunity, the sons could be out, its ground playing, a reasonably
6:52 pm
rare international here in durham and this is a perfect chance to say goodbye to the format and do so on my own terms. it does fit into place for ben stokes, it promises to be a great day tomorrow.— great day tomorrow. don't forget our great day tomorrow. don't forget your sunscreen. _ thank you. temperatures reached 37 degrees in leicester today with south africa's women are chasing a huge 372 to avoid a 3—0 series defeat against england. england will the bad and they question the wisdom of that decision from the very off. england openers tammy beaumont and emma lam put on 149 for the first wicket with beaumont going on to reach a five century. sylvia dunkley, captain heather night both with 50s as well. england continue to punish south africa's boulders. they batters have made a decent start, 61—1 in the ninth over. we're ten days away from the commonwealth games with the powell
