cricket captain ben stokes in pakistan on his return to the test team. there is more nations league football this evening, we'll get the latest from cardiff shortly, where unbeaten wales kick off against montenegro in the next hour or so, but we'll start with england, who have been beaten in this international break. the questionable tactics employed by interim manager lee carsley at wembley last week, punished by greece. they won 3—1 against finland in helsinki last night, but where does that leave carsley now? he's due to take charge for the last two group matches next month and that includes what is now a must—win match in athens, but does he want the job full—time, will he even be offered it, and do the fa have a shortlist of alternatives. joe lynskey reports.

he is now more than halfway through his six maths each audition for lee carsley with england, it is three wins — four. but each match has brought a different take on the future. he had said long term, england need a world—class coach but last night brought contradictions. does that mean you feel the long—term job is too soon for you? definitely— long—term job is too soon for you? definitely not. it's one of the top jobs of the world, not part of the process but it deserves the top coach with the players we have available you have a real chance of winning so that was the point i was making. winning so that was the point i was makinu. ~ , , ., . ., making. the key blotch on the record was the defeat _ making. the key blotch on the record was the defeat last _ making. the key blotch on the record was the defeat last week _ making. the key blotch on the record was the defeat last week to - making. the key blotch on the record was the defeat last week to greece . was the defeat last week to greece where england played with five forwards and lost 2—1 at home. the players lee carsley has to bent —— balance say they are still behind him. ._ balance say they are still behind him. , ., , , �* , him. the way he has been it's unbelievable _ him. the way he has been it's unbelievable it's _ him. the way he has been it's unbelievable it's amazing - him. the way he has been it's| unbelievable it's amazing with him. the way he has been it's - unbelievable it's amazing with the support—

let's get more on this, the daily mirror'sjohn cross was in helsinki last night and told me that the fa's thinking around lee carsely might have shifted. lee carsley, i think thursday in the defeat to greece hurt him and damaged his prospects and knocked his confidence and i do think that three months on from beginning this process of finding a replacement for gareth southgate, i think we are probably beyond lee carsley now. i think we are looking at bigger names. if think we are looking at bigger names. , ., ., think we are looking at bigger names. , . ., ., ., “ think we are looking at bigger names. , ., ., ., ., names. if they are now looking at an external candidate, _ names. if they are now looking at an external candidate, what _ names. if they are now looking at an external candidate, what has - external candidate, what has probably helped them make that decision to go that way? is it some of the mixed messages that have come out of lee carsley himself on whether he actually wants the job or not? he whether he actually wants the “ob or not? ., . . whether he actually wants the “ob or not? . , , , whether he actually wants the “ob or not? ., , , , . ., not? he has been very careful with his answers _ not? he has been very careful with his answers in _ not? he has been very careful with his answers in the _ not? he has been very careful with his answers in the early _ not? he has been very careful with his answers in the early stages - not? he has been very careful with j his answers in the early stages and in the build—up to the greek match,

i almost called it an audition, if you were to lose than never going through it and if they had done while going through the hurdles, greece goes badly and then in finland is talking mixed messages, mixed quotes about whether he wants it or not. certainly the one thing i would say is he is not ruled himself out of the running but i think i feel strongly lee carsley will not be the next england manager, he may carry on longer but i don't think be the manager. carry on longer but i don't think be the manager-— carry on longer but i don't think be the manager. long term the fa have to net the manager. long term the fa have to get this right _ the manager. long term the fa have to get this right because _ the manager. long term the fa have to get this right because what - the manager. long term the fa have to get this right because what we - to get this right because what we know is that a fantastically strong squad to the england have got at the moment, thinking ofjude bellingham, possible future england captain, that squad will be able to run him for a decade or so.— that squad will be able to run him for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best — for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best group _ for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best group of— for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best group of players - for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best group of players that - for a decade or so. absolutely. this is the best group of players that i i is the best group of players that i can remember in 25 years of covering, yes we have the golden generation of gerard lampard, rooney

and to the lake, but they were a quarterfinal team, and to the lake, but they were a quarterfinalteam, i and to the lake, but they were a quarterfinal team, i think this team is more potential particularly as key members of the squad including harry kane have been two successive european championship finals and i think with the right appointment now and this is why the fa have to get it right, they can be world champions in 2026 and today he can win the euros two years later. they had that experience going deep into major tournaments, had that experience going deep into majortournaments, but had that experience going deep into major tournaments, but they don't haveis major tournaments, but they don't have is going over the final hurdle and winning and i think with the right time and guide into voice, i think england can become the best team in the world. wales have two draws and a win so far since craig bellamy became manager last month. they round off this international break in cardiff against montenegro who they beat away last month. the welsh looked to be heading for win in iceland last friday night but threw away a two goal lead. tomas dafydd reports.

means they don't have it and if they want to come and push high, it means there is a lot of space up front and we have some top players up front who can cause problems for any team. the same pattern has unfolded in each of craig bellamy�*s first three games in charge. the team has delivered a blistering performance in the first half only two in the second. last month wales held on to win in montenegro after scoring twice in the opening minutes and last week they squandered a two—goal lead and were fortunate to leave iceland with a point, they have shown in parts but in each game, performance of out somewhat. this a performance of out somewhat. as a strenath performance of out somewhat. as a strength you _ performance of out somewhat. as a strength you create _ performance of out somewhat. is —. strength you create the consistency for us, what we see, what we would like this team to become, after three games it's not too bad, but it is good because we still have a lot to do and that allows you to coach

tournaments in promotion to the top level of the nations leak sought to understand why people would be doubting about
