you are alive with bbc news. time to catch up with the sport. hello to you. england have made two choices in the last 24—hours and the first is certainly working, the wisdom of the second less clear. they decided to selectjosh tongue and he has taken both wickets to fall so far. that was after winning the tar sand putting australia in. it looked to have backfired somewhat. but that is when tongue struck. australia currently 130 — two. the test was briefly halted when just oil protesters got onto the pitch. jonny bairstow carried the protester off the field on the second was wrestled to the ground by security staff. the delay was around five minutes and three arrests were

made. just boil protesters have made disruptions to other sporting events this year. —— just stop oil. manchester city have pulled out of the running for england international declan rice after arsenal made a third bid the premier league champions weren't willing to meet. whether west ham accept arsenal's latest offer is another thing though. it's worth £105 million and meets west ham's valuation, but it's thought they don't like how it's structured and they could reject it, as they have all previous bids. robbie keane has admitted taking a managementjob as opportunities were rare closer to home. he has had coaching jobs with high—profile clubs that takes on his first managerial role in israeli football. you have to start somewhere and i needed a good opportunity. you just
2:48 pm
don't get... there are millions of coaches trying to getjobs. i am no different and it has to be something that as i have mentioned before, something ifeel that that as i have mentioned before, something i feel that is a good project, that is going to help all of us to be successful. luci; project, that is going to help all of us to be successful. lucy bronze sa s of us to be successful. lucy bronze says england's _ of us to be successful. lucy bronze says england's victory _ of us to be successful. lucy bronze says england's victory at _ of us to be successful. lucy bronze says england's victory at euro - of us to be successful. lucy bronze | says england's victory at euro 2020 two has helped improve conditions for the players. some of her barcelona team—mates have decided not to play for spain at the world cup because of the protests and the environment within the national team and the problems they have with the head coach. , . , , and the problems they have with the head coach-— head coach. they are missing out on somethin: head coach. they are missing out on something that _ head coach. they are missing out on something that is _ head coach. they are missing out on something that is a _ head coach. they are missing out on something that is a huge _ head coach. they are missing out on something that is a huge moment i head coach. they are missing out on something that is a huge moment inj something that is a huge moment in any football's career to make a difference, but unfortunately, and this is women's football still, there are many teams around the world will face a lot of problems, who are fighting, i think the spanish girls or headlines because it is world class players we are talking about but there are many teams around the world... jamaica is
2:49 pm
another example. teams are fighting to make their teams better and get them on a level where they deserved to be. at the last women's world cup in 2019 it was the usa that were in dispute with their federation, who eventually agreed to a landmark equal pay dealfor the us men and women's teams last year. former captain megan rapinoe is again part of the squad as they attempt win the trophy for a third time in a row in the first world cup since their successful fight. the sort of acceptable denial of what we actually are and i think those days are pretty much long gone and that would be quite a tough and embarrassing position to still keep an eye feels like this is a paradigms shift or a moment we will look back to and say nothing was ever the same after this world cup. i think everybody is thankfully pushing in the right direction and pushing in the right direction and
2:50 pm
pushing in the same direction now and the sky is the limit from here. there is much more build—up to the world cup on our website. and you can also get the latest from lord's as well. south korea is scrapping its unique system of counting a person across a va. their age increases by one year on each new year's day and not on their birthday. the government hopes their birthday. the government hopes the change will ease confusion as to when you can claim pensions. translation: i am supposed to be 30 next year but with this new system, i become two years younger. it is great to feel like you are getting younger and i feel a bit of distance from becoming 30. iam going 30. i am going to study abroad in the uk, soi i am going to study abroad in the uk, so i think it is less confusing that i don't need to explain about korean age and can just say my international age in other countries. i was worried that i would be banned
2:51 pm
from drinking even though i am 20 now i am relieved that i can still drink. when i was a teenager, i thought it would be good to be 20 but apparently, it is not, so i am happy to be back a teenager again. lots of interest in this story on our website and in our newsroom. my colleague jason is from our website and in our newsroom. my colleaguejason is from korea. korea has a strict hierarchical system, the older someone is, the kind of more respect that person gets and there are also criticisms that ageism is rife in places like the workplace and schools. the common question you ask if you meet a stranger in south korea is how old are you? that's because we need to first establish someone's age before being able to speak to that person and that is because of our language. we have specific terms to refer to
2:52 pm
someone older than you for you cannot just someone older than you for you cannotjust refer to someone by their name. i need to refer to you, lucy, with a different term. sorry, but i assume you are older than me! for instance, if i give you an example, in universities, people who are not the same age cannot call that person by their name and will have to say for instance senior or if a senior is speaking to someone younger than them, they will refer to them asjuniors. younger than them, they will refer to them as juniors. this younger than them, they will refer to them asjuniors.— younger than them, they will refer to them asjuniors. to them as “uniors. this has caused so much to them asjuniors. this has caused so much interest _ to them asjuniors. this has caused so much interest today _ to them asjuniors. this has caused so much interest today and - to them asjuniors. this has caused so much interest today and we - to them asjuniors. this has caused | so much interest today and we have been asking you about it. has it been asking you about it. has it been confusing as a korean person overseas to explain the sometimes? it certainly is. normally if you ask someone's age, it is a straightforward answer, you say how old you are. you know how old you are. but for koreans, it has been a conundrum because we are used to using the korean age in social
2:53 pm
settings. if a foreigner would ask me how old i, i would give the korean age and later to find out you are maybe the same age on the international standard. there is confusion and this has persisted. as we heard earlier, the people in south korea, one of them mentioned, this eliminates all that confusion and that is why lawmakers voted to scrap the korean age system and that takes into effect today. from east to west, canada is in the grips of an unprecedented wildfire season and it's peak which usually comes in july season and it's peak which usually comes injuly or august has not even been reached yet. more than half of the fires burning on tuesday were considered out of control. these started in early may, prompting a state of emergency and the evacuation of tens of thousands of people. it is the smoke from the wildfires that has now reached europe. it has arrived in spain and
2:54 pm
portugal and is expected to sweep across western europe during the week. but we are not expecting the skies on the continent to turn orange, just what happened in some of the big cities in north america. it has been moving south from canada into the us though and as our correspondent express, there are some particular states that are affected. it really has depended on the day. as you mentioned, there were those apocalyptic images of the orange skies above new york city a couple of weeks ago. that headed a little further west yesterday. the areas around chicago, illinois, detroit, michigan, they were showing some of the worst air quality in the world in fact at one point because of those fires. now, it is expected that the smoke should be coming back east again in the new york state area. how much nzb new york city, thatis area. how much nzb new york city, that is yet to be seen, but we are not expecting to see those crazy images of those orange skies again.
2:55 pm
what kind of health warnings are in place? depending on where the smoke is, there are a number of air—quality warnings for young children, older adults and anybody who is working outside or who has to do a lot of physical activity outdoors. depending on your level of raspadori issue, people are being advised to wear a mask outside if they need to try and stay inside as much is possible and just to be able to avoid any of the health concerns. this is not the first time this week we have seen some of these us dates affected. this has been going on now for a little bit under a month, at least in the united states, as those wildfires are really continuing to rage across canada. 0n the east coast, we are being impacted by some of the fires are the quebec area in canada. this is something people are hoping can clear up relatively soon.
