so much sport going on at the moment — but we've got to start with the cricket. with two days left to play, england are still on top in the must win fourth ashes test against australia. the hosts had another good day with the bat and they came out swinging — with 50s from harry brook and ben stokes. but the outstanding performance of the day was jonny bairstow, who was left stranded on 99 not out as england stretched their lead to 275. mark wood took two crucial late wickets before stumps on day three, to leave australia 113 for 4, 162 runs behind, but the headlines will be all about bairstow, who is coming back from a broken leg and dislocated ankle that at one point threatened to end his whole career. obviously, there's been a lot of

spot awarded by the ar by canada against nigeria and group b and this one was more important. the score was 0—0 and christine sinclair was trying to become the first player to score in six world cups. nigeria keeper stop history and perhaps more importantly, a canadian victory. and a match of huge significance for the philippines and their world cup debut portrayed by a slight touch this comes from the penalty against switzerland. something of a moot chiller in manila because once ramona had scored, this was to control and added the second through serena. victory in one of the road southernmost towns and things of the swiss are looking up. well, england's world cup starts at 10:30 tomorrow morning in brisbane against haiti. the lionesses might be european champions but they've had a dip in form in recent months. but even with a number of injuries — including euro 2022 captain leah williamson, beth mead and fran kirby — manager

sarina weigman thinks the side is well balanced. it started with quality and you want the most quality on the pitch when some experiences there, it helps you. and between experience and players who don't have as much experience but they will get experience but they will get experience of the quickly. and some live sport going on now too and records are tumbling at the diamond league meeting in monaco. in the women's 1500 metres, kenya's faith kipyegon broke her third world record in the last two months, running the fastest women's metric mile in history, clocking 4 minutes, 7.64 seconds. laura muir in third, with a new british record. britian's dina asher smith was also third in the 200m. world champion shericka jackson from jamaica got the win. and you can follow all of the sport across the bbc website and app!

but thats all from me! hello. don't expect it to look or feel much like summer. this weekend the weather is looking decidedly unsettled. it will feel rather cool. it will often be windy and there will be some outbreaks of rain at times. how much rain? well, this chart shows how much we're expecting to accumulate over the next few days. the wettest places are likely to be across northern ireland, parts of wales, and perhaps most especially across the north of england, but most places getting at least a dose of wet weather thanks to this frontal system pushing its way in from the west. quite a complex frontal system. there will be various pulses of heavy rain running along it as it slides its way eastwards. moving its way into the picture, certainly, as we go

on through tonight. will stay mostly dry, i think, down towards the south east of england and also in the north of scotland. and here with clear skies overhead, it is actually going to get quite chilly like the last few nights. temperatures in some spots down to three orfour degrees, but milder further south underneath the influence of the areas of cloud, the outbreaks of rain, with this wriggling frontal system continuing to move its way through. so a really soggy saturday in prospect across parts of northern ireland. northern england looking very, very wet indeed. that rain getting up into southern and maybe central parts of scotland, wales, the south west of england. towards the south east corner, rain not arriving until quite late in the day, but for southern areas it will turn quite windy. in fact, for southern and western coast we could see gusts of 40 to maybe 50 mph in the most exposed spots. temperatures just 15—19 degrees. northern scotland always seeing the best of the brightness, albeit with one or two showers.

saturday evening, well, a bit of a wash—out for many, staying driest once again in the north of scotland. and as we move on into sunday, well, this area of low pressure just continues to track its way eastwards. now, this frontal system will tend to clear away, but this one here is set to hang back on sunday. so across parts of southern scotland, northern ireland, north wales and north midlands, but most especially northern england, it looks like we will see rain continuing to pile up. elsewhere, sunny spells and scattered showers and temperatures between 16—22 degrees. so many places a little below par at this point injuly. and no big change into next week. more rain at times, some drier interludes, yes, and it will stay fairly cool.
