that is not the truth. and i don't think so. i need to answer to any reports, to be honest. and there are some honest. and there are some honest words, that is all i can say. it honesty is very important. honesty is extremely important. honesty is extremely important if you want to go on and achieve some great things and achieve some great things and it starts from all of us. not only from the players, from the coaches as well. and i said it, the kind of talent that is an indian cricket, i think will always be in safe hands, yes. there might be times when we don't get the results and we will have to be patient and, more importantly, i think we are not only criticising the young players. ithink are not only criticising the young players. i think we've got to give them time to develop as well. well, there's a much more optimistic atmosphere in the australian squad, as they go into the final test knowing they can't lose the series. captain pat cummins says they're fully focused on one more victory to win the, and regain the trophy. it is always the preferred position. but you going into

every test match trying to win so it is no different this week but again, really happy with the last three test matches. how the boys have played. we have shown that, for most, that we have kind of been a frontrunner and that is coming home again this week. keep it up. keep it up. to the premier league where arsenal manager mikel arteta hasn't ruled his side out of a title race, but admits it's out of their hands. arsenal moved back up to second in the table after coming from behind to beat 3—1 brentford on new year's day. but the victory still leaves them six points behind leaders liverpool, who have a game in hand. back when. there are a really good side. very well coached and they have been exceptional at home especially when you go down very early in the game, it is a mountain to climb. the team was very patient and that the end we were rewarded. back within six points _ the end we were rewarded. back within six points of _ the end we were rewarded. back within six points of liverpool at the top of the table. do you feel like you need to be

whilst in the men's draw, the number one seed novak djokovic is already into the last eight. he beat the frenchman gael monfils in straight sets, and will now play america's reilly opelka next. in the nba america they might be struggling with injuries, but the new york knicks are showing no signs of stopping, as they extended their winning streak to nine matches, beating utahjazz 109—103. it's not going so well for the dallas mavericks. since losing their star man luka doncic, they've now lost three of their last four. the mavericks were beaten by the houston rockets 110—99, and their head coach jason kidd says they have be able to find a way to win, without doncic. i think it isjust... injuries are, no matter what, i think it isjust... injuries are, no matterwhat, illness, you know, it was dealt with. and we believe that we always

have a chance to win and unfortunately we did not win these last couple of games on these last couple of games on the road. we can learn from it and now we have got to go back home. in the nfl, there'll be no record breaking moment for philadelphia eagles star running back say—quon barkley. he'll miss out on the chance to set a new single—season rushing record after the eagles head coach nick siri—anni decided to rest him for the final regular season game against the new york giants on sunday. it means barkley will finish the season with 2,005 yards rushing, just 101 yards shy the current record. 17—year—old luke littler remains on course to become the youngest winner of the world darts championship. he's in the semi finals, after easing past nathan aspinall 5—2. littler, who finished runner—up 12 months ago, finished with an average of over 101, as he set up a finalfourtie against stephen bunting. three time champion michael van gerwen plays chris dobey in the other semi final. and we finish with some sad news — as agnes keleti, the oldest living olympic medal winner, has died. she was 103.

keleti passed away after going into hospital with pneumonia a week ago. she won a total of 10 olympic medals in gymnastics, including five golds, for hungary at the 1952 helsinki games and the 1956 melbourne games. and that's all the sport for now. 0n the website you can keep up—to—date with all the latest news and we will have more for you later. goodbye. from march to magic and music to bradford, will take centre stage this year. the year—long programme of events will feature the likes of david hockney, from the city. and will aim to try to challenge the perceptions.

in northern ireland, a covering of snow, maybe, in the north york moors and further snow showers in the north of scotland. but as i said, for most, dry but much colder than we've been used to. 1—5 celsius on the thermometers, it's going to feel colder in the wind and marked wind chill with a subzero feel out there for most through this afternoon. now into tonight, the chill returns, of course, more widely. risk of frost and ice, especially slippery conditions where we see sleet and snow push across scotland, later into northern ireland and the far north of england. with clear skies, when they happen in between, down to,5 in the grampians and the highlands,, 6 through some rural parts of southern england and south wales, where it will be a sunny day on friday. a bit more cloud elsewhere. a few showers around and rain and sleet along the coast in north wales, north west england, northern ireland, a bit of snow over the hills. most snow in northern scotland, but still, for many, a dry and bright afternoon, at least not as windy as today. so the wind chill won't be quite as marked, but some

will stay subzero throughout. frost and ice again an issue for saturday morning, as well as some dense freezing fog. a bright start for many, a few showers in the north and west of scotland, again wintry in nature, but cloud amounts will increase from the west through the day. that will suppress the rise in temperature and later on, as this weather system comes in, we could see some snowfall briefly for southern england and south wales before it turns back to rain. and this is the key to the weekend, what happens with this area of low pressure? the northern edge will see some snowfall, on the southern edge, we will see some rain. potentially some disruptive snowfall in the hills of northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland, could see as much as a foot of snow in places, but there will be some big contrasts. so this is why it will be crucial to where that low pressure goes. low single figure temperatures in the north, double figure temperatures in the south. sojust to sum up, this is how it looks through the weekend into the start of next week. mainly rain across the south of england and wales. there's that snowfall for a time before it turns back to rain, with a risk of flooding in northern england and north wales and then snowfall quite widely on sunday in scotland. take care.

a live from london. this is bbc news. us investigators now believe several individuals were behind the attack in new orleans that left 15 people dead and 35 injured. this is the scene live in new orleans, where the authorities say the man who carried out the attack was a former us army veteran with an islamic state flag in his vehicle. details are emerging about the victims who died, among them are former college football star, a father
