in fact, the lionesses are yet to lose any of the 26 matches they have played under manager sarina wiegman, and they won't be looking to break that run tonight. jane dougall is at stadium mk for us. jane, we don't know a lot about south korea, how much of a test will they be for england? england have only played south korea twice ever the last time was way backin twice ever the last time was way back in 2011. they beat them to— one but that was a long time ago so we don't know a great deal about type korea —— south korea. fifth in the future rankings england fourth and looking at the other teams in this round robin tournament belgium and italy even further down the rankings as well. so it may not be the toughest competition at all for england, but as sarina wiegman said it is important to play countries

from different cultures and different continents as well. that's what she feels like they will get from playing south korea. this tournament, don't forget stage by the faa is all about getting preparation before this summer's world cup in australia and new zealand. england will play three games across seven days in england said that is good preparation for tournament football. it is also a good chance for sarina wiegman to look at different players and combinations of players as well because, don't forget both jill scott and ellen white retired after winning euros so those are big boots to fill. also an issue because it mailed —— midfielder keira walsh is out for great because of a stomach bug and angling unbeaten in 26 matches and sarina wiegman wanting to keep that record. quite matches and sarina wiegman wanting to keep that record.— to keep that record. quite a lot auoin on to keep that record. quite a lot going on for— to keep that record. quite a lot going on for england _ to keep that record. quite a lot going on for england before - to keep that record. quite a lot| going on for england before the match even kicks off tell us about

match is coming to a close and of course england will be playing each of those two countries later on in the tournament. england won the trophy last year against much tougher competition so they will hope to successfully defend this year. well, returning home for the game is the captain of the lionesses leah williamson. she's been given the freedom of milton keynes after leading the side to victory during the euros in 2022. she's been looking back on the journey which led there and has been speaking to our reporterjames burridge. the best thing about team sport is the relationships and connections you have with people. the feeling of being part a team turning up on a saturday morning, my family would be there and that kind of community feel was the best part of those years. feel was the best part of those ears. ,, , feel was the best part of those ears, ,, , , ., feel was the best part of those ears. ,, , ., years. she 'ust said to me, mum i want to years. shejust said to me, mum i want to play _ years. shejust said to me, mum i want to play football _ years. shejust said to me, mum i want to play football when - years. shejust said to me, mum i want to play football when she - want to play football when she was about _ want to play football when she was about sex — want to play football when she was about sex. and she had not really

0-0. england had the best of the opening day's play, in the first test against new zealand in mount mowngan—ui. the visitors reached 325 for 9 declared, and took three quick wickets before the close. here's our sports correspondent, andy swiss. there was a time when test cricket was calm, cautious... anthem plays. but england have the rewritten the rule book. they began against new zealand with the same swagger that brought such success last year, ben duckett blasting his way to 50 from the first hour. it has been entertaining from the first ball. that said, not everything works. there goes root again! joe root without reminder that their aggressive approach is a risky business but it's also a thrilling one. oh, what a shot! a blaze of boundaries led by harry brook allowing england to declare on 325. under the floodlights, new zealand's batsmen was soon under pressure. 0h, he's gone!

the two ollie's pope and robinson made the breakthrough before a0 of old jimmy anderson showed his timeless talent. kane williamson was initially given not out with the replays showed otherwise an england's the light wasn't done. and anderson also removed henry nichols before the close. england's day and once again never a dull moment. andy swiss, bbc news. continuing his great run of form harry brook top scored with 89 knocked out scored three consecutive test entries during this easement over pakistan and is taking it all in stride. i over pakistan and is taking it all in stride. . . over pakistan and is taking it all in stride. ., ., . ., over pakistan and is taking it all in stride. ., ., _, , ,., in stride. i am a confident person, but i am in stride. i am a confident person, but i am quite _ in stride. i am a confident person, but i am quite relaxed _ in stride. i am a confident person, but i am quite relaxed as - in stride. i am a confident person, but i am quite relaxed as well. - in stride. i am a confident person, but i am quite relaxed as well. it i but i am quite relaxed as well. it is something i have worked on a lot is something i have worked on a lot is trying _ is something i have worked on a lot is trying to— is something i have worked on a lot is trying to stay as level as possible _ is trying to stay as level as possible never get too high or low.

consultation. to the effect that from that regard i think is a huge positive for the players and their relationship of the union going forward because they need to be part of all of the discussions that take place. it is the very last option. there are people _ it is the very last option. there are people of passion that ultimately think if you treat people badly for— ultimately think if you treat people badly for long enough you get to where we — badly for long enough you get to where we found ourselves with againm — where we found ourselves with again... we realise what we do and how fortunate we are to do it but if there _ how fortunate we are to do it but if there are any other lines of work, other— there are any other lines of work, other industry for this period of time _ other industry for this period of time with— other industry for this period of time with this amount of uncertainty you would _ time with this amount of uncertainty you would get the same reaction. in other six nations news, ireland lock tadhg beirne has been ruled out of the remainder of the championship. the second row suffered an ankle injury in ireland's 32—19 victory over france last weekend ruling him out of the upcoming matches against italy, scotland and england as the irish chase just the fourth grand slam in their history.

it's being hailed as a �*game—changing moment�* for women's rugby — a new maternity policy has been brought in for members of the england team. they're now entitled to 26 weeks' fully—paid maternity leave and there are also funds to help children to travel to games. england prop vickii cornborough played a key role in setting up the policy and has been speaking to our reporter sara orchard. i think it is a real game changing moment and i think for us as the red roses we do a lot on the pitch and now we now lead by example with our performance and the way we carry ourselves on the pitch so it was really good to see the rfq is able to support us off of the pitch just as well and really making changes in

the game. as you say we have been working on this for quite some time now and myself personally being in the rpa role i've been working on it since 2020 to get into the shape that it since 2020 to get into the shape thatitis since 2020 to get into the shape that it is now in and have been able to launch such a great historic policy as well. i genuinely think that will change the game in england for professional female athletes. [30 for professional female athletes. do you hope that other sports will look at this and realise that this should be a minimum standard? for at this and realise that this should be a minimum standard?- be a minimum standard? for me lookin: be a minimum standard? for me looking at _ be a minimum standard? for me looking at this _ be a minimum standard? for me looking at this whole _ be a minimum standard? for me looking at this whole piece - be a minimum standard? for me looking at this whole piece and l be a minimum standard? for me looking at this whole piece and i | looking at this whole piece and i have worked in other industries as well a sport and maternity policies are normal. it is the norm. and i don't see why it should be any different in sport. yes, we have a very different kind ofjob and full—time sports professionals especially in a contact game is very different, yet you should still have the support available it is your

right as a female it's not like you really have any other choice there. so i think having the right to do thatis so i think having the right to do that is an entitlement that should be given so i think as a minimum standard it should be in place. and i think it is a really fantastic thing that rpu and rfu. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the sports news today. the 27—year—old was banned for breaches of covid rules and twice being about the alcohol threshold. australia made it three wins from three in the women's t20 world cup as they crusied to victory against sri lanka. chasing 113 to win, australia knocked of the total with 25 balls to spare for the loss of no wickets.

and mikaela shiffrin has claimed the one major slalom title to ellude her during the american's incredible career — winning gold at the giant slalom at the alpine skiing world championships in france. the victory is shiffrin's seventh world title and makes her the most decorated skier in modern world alpine skiing championship history. now with the rugby league world cup, still fresh in the mind, the new men's super league season gets under way this evening, with last years beaten grand finalists — leeds rhinos — taking on warrington wolves. the big question for the year ahead though, is whether any team, can get close to st helens, who are aiming for a fifth title in a row, as adam wild reports.

this is super league's reawakening as those now in charge of the sport would have you believe, every reimagining as clubs prepare to restart plenty feels familiar still, much has changed. the team has beat well that has not altered in years. saint helen's champions four times in a row, but now with the new man in a row, but now with the new man in charge. in a row, but now with the new man in charae. , ., , , , ., in charge. obviously been here and reaardless in charge. obviously been here and regardless of _ in charge. obviously been here and regardless of whether _ in charge. obviously been here and regardless of whether we _ in charge. obviously been here and regardless of whether we have - in charge. obviously been here and regardless of whether we have had | regardless of whether we have had competition previously there is an expectation of success and success is not third. — expectation of success and success is not third, second or fourth stop it is winning _ is not third, second or fourth stop it is winning-— is not third, second or fourth stop it is winning. what a player what an inspirational _ it is winning. what a player what an inspirational character. _ it is winning. what a player what an inspirational character. i _ it is winning. what a player what an inspirational character. i success i inspirational character. i success brin . s inspirational character. i success brings inspiration _ inspirational character. i success brings inspiration there's - inspirational character. i success brings inspiration there's few - brings inspiration there's few better to deal with that than the captain. 37 he has done it before. i want people in the town who want you to -o want people in the town who want you to go out _ want people in the town who want you to go out and — want people in the town who want you to go out and winter— want people in the town who want you to go out and winter feet and - want people in the town who want you to go out and winter feet and if - want people in the town who want you to go out and winter feet and if you i to go out and winter feet and if you don't _ to go out and winter feet and if you don't it— to go out and winter feet and if you don't it is— to go out and winter feet and if you don't it is a — to go out and winter feet and if you don't it is a motivating _ to go out and winter feet and if you don't it is a motivating factor. -

adam wild is there for this evening. adam, an intriguing contest to get the season under way? yes. and even at this point around these parts the word that they are using is pressure. for too long warrington has been the byword for underachievement, year after year the big names and flashy signings have failed to deliver. they cannot afford another year like last year. where at times they were flirting with the right location. head coach under no illusions of the size of the task ahead. contrast that with tonight the visitors leads rhino. what a year at last season. started terribly sacked the coach and brought in a relative unknown despite those family connections you were just hearing about and he transformed the club. he talked them

all the way to the current final. can they pick up where they left off? i suspect it may be difficult. they have lost some key players and have left the club and have some injuries but we will know a lot more about both of these sites before the evening is out. but the reigning champions st helens are missing the start of the season? yes they are in australia getting ready for that world cup challenge from the back to back world champions in australia on saturday. when they returned their first match is not for a week on sunday. and at that point the leaders could be four points clear. will that have a psychological impact on st. helens, i suspect not because he don't get to be challenging for your consecutive super league title if you let something like bother you. on the flip side if they were to return having beat the vets were outside in the world that would be a
