6:32 pm
as england make early headway in a match they'd expect to win. joe wilson is there for us. great to see you. a positive start for england then and a really reliable one from stuart broad as always, right? reliable one from stuart broad as always. right?— reliable one from stuart broad as always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell— always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell you _ always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell you a _ always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell you a bit _ always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell you a bit about - always, right? absolutely, gavin. i want to tell you a bit about what i l want to tell you a bit about what i saw here yesterday. the day before a test match, none of the first bowlers too much as they conserve energy. stuart broad was in the middlejust behind me energy. stuart broad was in the middle just behind me visualising what he was going to do. was not running butjust feeling the ball in his hand, position of his wrist and fingers, rehearsing in his mind what he would do when this match began. and let's show you what he did win this test match began. now the way he got his wickets today, five of them, everyone a bit different but we saw again the way he manipulates that ball, put it right where the batter does not want it to be. five wickets for him today, 17 overs,
6:33 pm
5-51, wickets for him today, 17 overs, 5—51, classic figures for stuart broad with four of those wickets also the top four for ireland. we can say for certain as he approaches his 37th birthday is that stuart broad has the hungerfor test his 37th birthday is that stuart broad has the hunger for test match cricket, and i think he has this love of the occasion. we have already heard him kind of winding up the australians and if you needed any extra confidence which i don't suppose he really does, his wickets against ireland here today certainly gave him that as they were bowled out for just 172. gave him that as they were bowled outforjust172._ gave him that as they were bowled out forjust 172. out for 'ust172. what a performance from out forjust 172. what a performance from him and _ out forjust 172. what a performance from him and example _ outforjust172. what a performance from him and example for— out forjust 172. what a performance from him and example for other - from him and example for other bowlers as well. how did they do? interesting as i want to think about jack leach first of all. on an early season day with opponents bowled out cheekily, there might have been england cap as it would not have given their spinners not much of a go at all. not ben stokes. jack was given 14 overs by the captain and rewarded with figures of 3—35. just one of the factors of the ben stokes era or style of captaincy that he
6:34 pm
really backs jack leach. in terms of the other fast bowlers, a of interest injosh tong making his debut for england. we saw 13 overs from him today making his appearance with no wickets but we saw that you get the ball up to over 90 mph pretty regularly and i think as we look at the ashes to come that will be the kind of role that england maybe have in reserve for him with a kind of role that would love to have jaw or archer four. would love to know if he will ever see him doing it again for england but we saw a page from josh tongue and encouragement in that sense. find page from josh tongue and encouragement in that sense. and how was the reply — encouragement in that sense. and how was the reply for _ encouragement in that sense. and how was the reply for england _ encouragement in that sense. and how was the reply for england going - encouragement in that sense. and how was the reply for england going so - was the reply for england going so far? . , , ~ , was the reply for england going so far? , ~ , ., far? rapidly. with zach riley and ben duckett _ far? rapidly. with zach riley and ben duckett batting _ far? rapidly. with zach riley and ben duckett batting to _ far? rapidly. with zach riley and ben duckett batting to open - far? rapidly. with zach riley and ben duckett batting to open thel ben duckett batting to open the ending they took england to 100 in the 16th over. ben duckett who is been into the swing of things abroad with scoring quickly. crawley fell for a 56 and those will say that's him again and should have made it to 100, but they did what england
6:35 pm
wanted to do in the summer and did it against ireland but the question is can they do it against australia? the here and now they will resume only about 20 runs shy of the ireland first innings total. jae. ireland first innings total. joe, thank you _ ireland first innings total. joe, thank you very _ ireland first innings total. joe, thank you very much - ireland first innings total. joe, thank you very much indeed. a beautiful day there. well, asjoe was saying, josh tongue showing early signs of cementing his spot in this england side. tongue's been on the radar of selectors for some time and appears to have been tipped for greatness by family friend tim piper 20 years ago. piper placed a £100 bet thatjosh would go on to represent england in a test, and that came good today, winning him £50,000. he spoke to me earlier and said his talent was easy to spot. i heard he was pulling a couple of years _ i heard he was pulling a couple of years ago— i heard he was pulling a couple of years ago and i knew then that he was a special talent. then i went to visit and _ was a special talent. then i went to visit and he — was a special talent. then i went to visit and he had grown up by then. i said to _ visit and he had grown up by then. i said to him — visit and he had grown up by then. i said to him and i will have you play for england — said to him and i will have you play for england and he said yeah, whatever, _ for england and he said yeah, whatever, ten. then i got two

6:38 pm
russell fuller who's at roland—garros covering the french open. good to see you so what is the status of the split down to then? and emma raducanu's words it was unfeasible for them to both continue at this time. she said it was unfortunate and she had enjoyed working with sebastian sachs but generally speaking, tennis players don't particularly like to pay coaches for doing nothing. and when a player has had three operations in the space of a couple of weeks as raducanu has come a minor operations on both feet and an ankle and knows she will be off to work for the next few months, that is not unusual for a coach and a player to part company. but i think what it does tell us is the foundations of this partnership were obviously not worth persevering with because it was only five tournaments and it was only ten matches. and i don't know for sure what sebastian sachs's take on this is a definite contact him but not been able to get any response so far. i think from raducanu's point
6:39 pm
of view, she obviously feels there is no point in continuing with this right now and people were disappointed because there was a feeling of people i talked to in the last couple of months and actually they were a good fit. he has been described as very energetic and an excellent record on the wtr tour and belinda bencic was one of the players he has worked with of former players he has worked with of former player himself he was a very good partner. and her surprise that this thought had come to an end. b, partner. and her surprise that this thought had come to an end. a couple of turbulent — thought had come to an end. a couple of turbulent years _ thought had come to an end. a couple of turbulent years for _ thought had come to an end. a couple of turbulent years for raducanu - thought had come to an end. a couple of turbulent years for raducanu and i of turbulent years for raducanu and read it is not easy for her with the injuries she has had. falling out of the top 100 now so how much instability now is a form of rational directional sense? i5 instability now is a form of rational directional sense? is a chance to _ rational directional sense? is a chance to reset. _ rational directional sense? is a. chance to reset. and therefore there is no great hurry for her to try and look for a new coach i think it's unlikely that she is going to be back on the tour before september or october at the earliest, so a decision needs to be made. if sebastian sachs is not a right fit,
6:40 pm
who is going to be for a player he was going to be put off the recently returning to the tour before the end of the year and will find her ranking at around 200 so she will have to be building your way back up through the rankings and that confidence is going to have to be rebuilt. b. confidence is going to have to be rebuilt. �* ., . ~ confidence is going to have to be rebuilt. . ., . ,, ., �* , confidence is going to have to be rebuilt. . ., �* , , , . rebuilt. a lack of british presence in the main _ rebuilt. a lack of british presence in the main draw _ rebuilt. a lack of british presence in the main draw of _ rebuilt. a lack of british presence in the main draw of the _ rebuilt. a lack of british presence i in the main draw of the french open singles this year with no women qualify for the main draw. how much hope rest still with raducanu? what hope rest still with raducanu? what ou did b hope rest still with raducanu? what you did by winning _ hope rest still with raducanu? rmisgt you did by winning the us open was simply extraordinary, and that gives a wonderful shot and the arm to british dennis. as a result the hope is always up the dissipation levels will decrease as a result and they can inspire other players to come along in herfootsteps. that's not always easy to achieve and i think we have seen that with andy murray over the last few years but clearly having somebody with a profile of raducanu means that it's in everybody�*s interests within british dennis to see her back on tour, fit, happy and successful again. one story does not make a summer and you
6:41 pm
need those high—profile players and ideally those players to contend for a grand slam title and also you need a grand slam title and also you need a book of players are going to be contesting for grand slam main draws and unfortunately with no women from britain and the top hundred the moment, that isjust britain and the top hundred the moment, that is just not the case. russell fuller, think you very much indeed from paris. to the action on the clay then at roland—garros. the women's number one iga swiatek cruised into the third round, as did elena rybakhina. and a five—set thriller in the men's side of the draw involving eighth—seed jannik sinner. the third title in that france iga swiatek level with some of the greats but she but she says she says she's interested in studying history in not making it. a second round match looking very straight forward at 3-0 match looking very straight forward at 3—0 up. it was not. then the unforced errors began to creep in. that lead evaporated equally quickly
6:42 pm
and she found her cell back on level terms with her american opponent. but this being iga swiatek, she soon reasserted her authority and took the first set 6—4. the defending champion never quite found top gear against the world number 102 in the second set but then she did not need to taking it 6—0. kazakhstan's elena rybakhina underline her credentials with a straight sets win over the world number 50 with the czech teenager making limitless champion work for it but elena rybakhina safely in the third round 6—3, 6—3. in the men's draw, last year runner—up casper route a bit of a runaround but the dane came through three sets to one relieved not to play a fifth set as he said he was glad for the recovery time. daniel ottmar won't have that much but he won't mind, overjoyed when a five
6:43 pm
set marathon to knock out the number eight seed jannik sinner. drew savage, bbc news. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the headlines today. brentford have appointed former leicester city women's manager lydia bedford as head coach of their under—18s side. it's thought bedford will become the first woman to hold a coaching position at a premier league club. last year, bedford kept leicester up in the wsl. chelsea forward laurenjames has signed a new four—year deal with the women's super league champions. the england international made 18 appearances and scored five goals this season, helping the blues to their fourth successive title. more medal success for great britain in the world taekwondo championships in baku. three—time champion bianca cook won bronze, just losing out to svetlana osipova from uzbekistan in their heavyweight semifinal. and britain's elfyn evans was two seconds off the pace on the opening stage of rally italia on the island of sardinia. that left the toyota driver in eighth place overall. evans will be hoping to bounce back from failing to finish last time out in portugal. the rally finishes on sunday.
6:44 pm
the parry site chemin coach has confirmed that his —— lionel messi's last match will be this sunday. the argentine international has yet to announce where he will play next with moves to majorly soccer or other regions being floated. interesting times there. police have said any protesters will be dealt with in a speedy and robust way if they try to disrupt the fa cup final between manchester city and manchester united this weekend. much of the build—up to saturday's match has focused on train strikes causing disruption to travel. more than 1200 officers from three forces will be deployed to wembley. chris slegg spoke to deputy assistant commissioner ade adelekan. our focus really is mickey sure everyone is safe and secure. i have said there are lots of conversation
6:45 pm
between partnership groups across a piece to make sure the plans are aligned so that is actually important. we have got plans in place to deal with anti—social behaviour and a lot of experienced officers in terms of commands that's really important as well.— really important as well. wembley wa is to really important as well. wembley way is to replace _ really important as well. wembley way is to replace and _ really important as well. wembley way is to replace and it _ really important as well. wembley way is to replace and it was - really important as well. wembley way is to replace and it was in - way is to replace and it was in 2021? , ., , ., ., way is to replace and it was in 2021? ., ~ , 2021? our plans are to keep everyone safe and secure _ 2021? our plans are to keep everyone safe and secure and _ 2021? our plans are to keep everyone safe and secure and we _ 2021? our plans are to keep everyone safe and secure and we have - 2021? our plans are to keep everyone safe and secure and we have learned l safe and secure and we have learned lessons most of our plans are looking to talk to partners make sure we deliver safe and secure operation for those who come to london and that's what's really important. we london and that's what's really important-— london and that's what's really im ortant. ~ . , , ., important. we have seen several ma'or important. we have seen several major sporting — important. we have seen several major sporting events _ important. we have seen several major sporting events disrupted l important. we have seen several i major sporting events disrupted by protesters with a gray national world secure chicken ship and that premiership final so how lucky do you think a protest is this weekend? anyone who went to disrupt or consulate with the intention of disrupting the fa cup final will be met with the same sort of response that similar protests have been met with which is really rather robust and expeditious. that will make sure that whatever happens if they manage disrupted a little bit we will limit the amount of time they are actually on the field of play or in whatever
6:46 pm
way they decide it's right. but no intelligent suggest that will happen but if it does happen we will respond in an expeditious and rather robust manner. the deputy assistant commissioner of the metropolitan police. the england cerebal palsy football team are currently in sardinia preparing for their 2023 european championship campaign to get under way tomorrow. it's often referred to as "cp football", and i spoke to england captain matt crossen earlier, and he gave me an assessment of the team's chances. it's just exciting and just controlling nerves are really and the excitement. they asked me what it's like with all the experience of being there and how to control it and cope with the sort of situations we are in, but go up in arms and are excited. at the end of the day we are training for this and we cannot wait to do it and it realistically this is the easy part because we had to go out and play. fide this is the easy part because we had to go out and play-— to go out and play. five games in nine da s to go out and play. five games in nine days is _

6:49 pm
and that is my goal going into the european championships. my best form is not stressed, not worrying about everything, not being burnt out, it's being able to dig a step back and have a really good perspective and have a really good perspective and enjoy what i'm doing. so i'm kind of back on thatjourney and it's time to admit that going a few weeks out of the european games, but that's where i at and that's just being honest. that's where i at and that's 'ust being honestfi that's where i at and that's 'ust being honest. that's where i at and that's 'ust bein: honest. ., �* ., being honest. you've told them the hiths and being honest. you've told them the highs and lows _ being honest. you've told them the highs and lows of _ being honest. you've told them the highs and lows of the _ being honest. you've told them the highs and lows of the spore - being honest. you've told them the highs and lows of the spore and - being honest. you've told them the l highs and lows of the spore and your fantastic tokyo olympics or you had gold but how do you find life after tokyo really and how has a transition bend to how you are now? it was tricky to navigate after tokyo. i got all these amazing opportunities i wanted to say yes to is what is i could. little bit of a profile and also really expose bmx freestyle which is incredible that i got to do that. but i mean the first few months after the games was crazy. i was meeting david beckham and prince william. i kind of came
6:50 pm
back to the sport and not that he will know but i defecated my shoulder six weeks before the olympics and it was hanging on by thread and i should've gotten surgery straightaway but made the mistake of not doing that and when i came back to the store itjust dislocated again straightaway obviously. i know better than anyone a lot can change in the course of a month or two, so i'm excited to see where i will be at and hopefully i will be well on the road to being in that better place and being able to go out there and feel like i'm got a bit of mojo and then feeling like that's when the right level of confidence, not cocky, but i'm going to go out there and smash it. charlotte worthington there. a moment of history in domestic men's cricket this weekend. sue redfern will become the first woman to stand as an on—field umpire in the t20 blast when she takes charge of gloucestershire against middlesex in bristol on sunday. the 45—year—old was appointed to the ecb's group of elite officials last year, allowing her to stand in men's and women's professional domestic cricket in england and wales. she told me it could open the doors for many others trying to break into the sport.
6:51 pm
it's an exciting step in the next journey for me it really. i think obviously i have got lots of experience of women's cricket and international credit when the world, but for me umpiring and both men and women's cricket is really important so for me myjourney in the men's pathway, it's a big next step really so i'm looking forward to it. in so i'm looking forward to it. in terms of increasing and you've talked about a big deal it is for diversity and inclusion in the game and particularly at a male—dominated game like this. what does it do for symbolism really having you umpire this match? is symbolism really having you umpire this match? , ., , ., symbolism really having you umpire this match?— this match? is really important for me and obviously _ this match? is really important for me and obviously from _ this match? is really important for me and obviously from a - this match? is really important for. me and obviously from a professional perspective, is the next up in my career. i want to improve that, but i note and it's bigger than that. it's really important that other females see me umpiring in these environments to really see that they
6:52 pm
can achieve this and it is possible for them and if it means that one female decides they want to umpire as a result of this, that's brilliant. that visibility is so important to showing people that you can do any role in cricket and that's a very important part of it really. frankie dettori is in the final furlong of his extraordinary career. he'll retire as a jockey at the end of the season, but could this weekend's derby, aboard arrest, be his final hoorah? dettori is been one of the most colourful characters in british racing for decades. he is been a championjockey three racing for decades. he is been a champion jockey three times with 22 winters and you can forget the day backin winters and you can forget the day back in 96 when he went through the car winning all seven races? saturday will be his final derby and he is when it twice before on

with more later on, see you then. hello there. there's no rain in the forecast for the next few days, and the first day of meteorological summer got off to a sparkling start here in eastbourne, in east sussex. many parts of the country saw the sunshine coming through, but not everywhere. some eastern areas of scotland and eastern england stayed cloudy and as a result quite a bit cooler as well. but we should see more sunshine developing across more of the country tomorrow because drier air is going to be coming in from off the north sea. at the moment, though, what's happening overnight is the cloud that we've had in eastern areas is going to push back inland across england and wales, but it's quite thin cloud. for scotland and northern ireland, this is where it's going to be clearer, but it's going to be eastern scotland that will be quite chilly. 2—3 degrees here, otherwise about eight degrees first thing on friday morning.
6:57 pm
and it could be quite a cloudy start for england and wales, but this time the cloud is thinner. so it's going to break up more readily, and we'll get more sunshine developing more widely across the uk. just a bit of patchy cloud hugging some of these north sea coasts. now, for many, the winds will be light, but it's still going to be pretty breezy across the south—east through the english channel. noticeably breezy in these areas, so a little bit cooler, perhaps. and with the wind off the north sea, right on the coast, it will be cooler. but with sunny skies developing in most places, then those temperatures more widely will be reaching a pleasant 20—21 degrees. but uv level�*s going to be high right the way across the country, all the way from the shetland isles down into the channel islands. now if you're wondering where all the rain's gone, it's really across southern parts of europe. it stays wet and thundery in places cos high pressure that's been keeping it dry still sitting over the uk. still got some stronger winds across the south and south—east. otherwise the winds are light. on saturday, we could see more cloud
6:58 pm
coming into the far north of scotland, so a little bit cooler here. but otherwise, lots of sunshine around again on saturday. those temperatures creeping up a little bit, up to around 22—23 degrees. and the glorious weekend continues for many areas with sunny skies. but there's more cloud notjust in northern scotland, rolling down the north sea, perhaps hugging some of these north sea coasts, particularly in the north—east of england. so, again, a little bit cooler here, but otherwise, those temperatures gradually getting up to 23 or even 2a celsius.
