6:30 pm
north scattering of showers in the north and west and we are all in for a dose of rain over the next 2a hours and it comes courtesy of this deep area of low pressure waiting in the wings, in the atlantic and it will be sweeping eastwards tonight and through tomorrow. another 20 or 30 millimetres of rain, really quite widely across the uk and that's not good news for the areas that have flood warnings in place but the rain sweeps into northern ireland as we head into the small hours, it will approach western scholar, west wales in the south—west by the time we get to dawn tomorrow. —— western scotland. ahead of the front we will see temperatures drop and offer a touch of frost across eastern scotland, so this is how we are starting tomorrow morning and a clearly defined back edge on the end of the rain and there will be some heavy downpours and some strong and gusty winds towards channel coasts gusting as high as 55 mph but the rain sweeps east, possibly lingering across east anglia and the east of england by the time we get to the
6:31 pm
dark, and then some sunshine behind it and showers across western scotland and northern ireland and temperatures between nine and 15 celsius. the front clears away but the next area of low pressure is waiting and will be sweeping eastwards as we head through the day on thursday. again we expect rather blustery showers on and off through the day, not raining all the time, but some of the show is a little wintry over the hills of wales and scotland and temperatures starting to drop a little. between eight and 12 to drop a little. between eight and i2 celsius but not as chilly as it will feel by that i will get to friday, with more of a northerly wind, fewer showers, some around. armistice day looks largely dry but there could be frost and fog. thanks, elizabeth. and that's bbc news at six. the news continues here on bbc one, as now it's time for the news where you are. goodnight. hello and welcome to sportsday
6:32 pm
this tuesday night — i'm chetan pathak. coming up on the programme... has there ever been a greater innings in one day cricket history? glen maxwell's astounding double hundred sees australia beat afghanistan and reach the semi finals of the world cup. on a big night for british sides in the champions league — can brendan rodgers and celtic get a result at atletico madrid? we'll be in spain ahead of kick—off. and the race to be herself — double olympic gold medallist caster semenya talks to us about her career and her fight to be recognised. welcome along, thank you forjoining us. australia beating afghanistan at the cricket world cup might not feel like a big story — but the aussies were staring at defeat today before
6:33 pm
an incredible turnaround. the afghans had them on the ropes — just like they did when they beat england and pakistan. but up stepped glen maxwell — barely able to walk at the end — with a double hundred that might just be the greatest innings we've seen in the history of one day cricket. with more on the match, joe wilson reports. somehow, afghanistan retains dislike and this identity through cricket. 0nly, it must be stressed, male cricket. they keep surprising in this world cup. in men by, he said he was inspired. he batted through 50 overs, he became the first afghan to make a world cup century. 291, their highest ever world cup score. australia's chase fell apart. seven
6:34 pm
down, glen maxwell last hope. dropped, seriously, very seriously. because maxwell then defied afghanistan, he defied logic. he was also seized by crab. maxwell could barely move, except to say his bat. maxwell's 31st boundary. 201, an australian record to win the game. that glenn maxwell double century guarantees australia a place in the cricket world cup semi finals but it will be remembered far beyond this tournament. the man with the best view in the house was maxwell's captain pat cummins who was batting at the other end from his cramp—stricken teammate. he had this to say afterwards. i think that's the greatest innings i've ever seen. it's public the greatest innings ever. we were just
6:35 pm
chatting about it, we all said it's one of those days where you say, i was there in the stadium that day. yeah, i'm sure he will be fine. i think you saw out there how much he loves playing for australia and he will do anything to play so i am sure he will be fine. one of the sides afghanistan surprised at this world cup were england. the defending champions are already out, of course, and will stay bottom of the table if they don't beat netherlands in their penultimate match of the tournament tomorrow. everyone�*s got their thoughts on what's gone wrong for england. earlier, stuart broad, recently retired, was in this studio giving us his thoughts. it's been a really difficult watch, to be honest. i've spoken to a few of the guys there and they can't really put their finger on what has gone wrong. i'm not a believer in rip up the strategy and start again. i would leave the coach and the captain, i believe in the style of play.
6:36 pm
but freshening up the faces a little bit, bringing a bit of young energy that can play with that fearless style, which naturally happens after world cups anyway, guys who are 33, 3a, four years to the next cycle, it becomes unrealistic that you will be there. it looks like a bit of fear is coming to the team. i think the one thing about team sports is you have two or three players out of form, but you can lean on your team—mates and they can support you and will give you help, but it looks like everyone is out of form at the same time. it is a must win game against the netherlands tomorrow to try to make the champions trophy. three british clubs are in champions league action tonight. more on celtic and manchester city
6:37 pm

6:57 pm
and into tomorrow and for a time, for a couple of hours, some strong winds, possibly gales in places. so the showers should continue to ease through the rest of this evening. temperatures fall away. touch of frost developing across the glens of scotland. and then the rain arrives in northern ireland before midnight, crossing to scotland, wales and western england as we go through the small hours of wednesday morning, finally reaching southern and eastern areas towards dawn. so eventually temperatures rise again after that early dip. so some quite miserable conditions for the morning rush across scotland, england and wales in particular, as well as the heavy rain, there“ll be a spell of strong winds, hill fog as well. behind it, brighter skies follow quite quickly in northern ireland and then to scotland, much of england and wales through the afternoon, the rainjust drags its heels in southern and eastern areas. now, some showers will follow and they will be heavy. there could be the odd rumble of thunder, wintry over the hills. it will feel a bit cooler with some blustery winds as well.
