being able to play with him way back in the day in wellington and seeing him be so consistent as he is recently is amazing and gives so much depth to our spin attack. obviously led by a world class bowler, one of the best in the world, and having someone i said a lot of time that we need to improve a lot as a batting unit, but we did same mistake over and over. to improve our batting.

universal, not unilateral. clearly, there's things over there that are hard to hear and read up on. i think it's an opportunity to celebrate cricket, hairs of a political situation, isn't it? yeah. you know, that's a job for the experts, for the higher ups and probably the icc to address, i think. from our point of view, we're playing the game

the scottish premiership. players in neil mccann, billy dodds and allan mcgregor. his first game in charge will be on wednesday against kilmarnock, with the club saying that the announcement was made with the club saying that they aim to return to profitability after spain defender laia codina says that her team has become found guilty of sexual assault.

2023 world cup final. of her international team—mate. the week that i had the week that i had to go as a witness, to go as a witness, that was a difficult week. i had a difficult week. it was tough for me. it was tough for me. obviously personal. i think that in arsenal, i think that in arsenal, all my team—mates they could all my team—mates they could see that was like a lot see that was like a lot of emotions up and down. of emotions up and down. yeah, a feeling yeah, a feeling of everything again. but that week was done, of everything again. and now i feel good, always supporting jenni always supporting jenni and always supporting my and always supporting my team—mates and the women. team—mates and the women. and i don't feel that it and i don't feel that it affects right now in the team, affects right now in the team, we don't speak about that, because it's something that we cannot control.

so why to speak about that?

so it cannot be just business as usual. for me, it's just another platform to show and to remind and we need help on every aspect of this. elina svitolina. engineer in formula one. careers in the sport can often feel out of reach to many, especially women, but that is gradually changing. people quite often don't believe me or, like, i tell them i work at mercedes fi been in the car?" or anything like that, which i have not. talk to me a bit about what you do do then,

of the car, right? yeah. as a graduate performance and simulation engineer. so part of myjob isjust making sure it's not getting too hot and it doesn't become a reliability issue. what has been your highlight so far? so i got to go to silverstone, so i got to go down it was kind of nice. so it was nice seeing the car and seeing my work, you found in the workplace or in pursuing your goal to be an engineer? i think before starting, it seems very scary or, like, intimidating to go into engineering, i guess. and i think the message that it's intimidating for women

scarier than it actually is. everyone�*s treated the same and you're alljust a team trying to work together. they might think, for example, formula one is quite an elite sport. "it's not for people like me." "i'm too scared to apply for it. i'm never going to get there." but actually, you don't know unless you throw yeah. and as you say, it's highlighting that. "it's not for me. "i'm a woman. we want the best talent from wherever it is. and we know that diversity in terms of teams brings so it gives us an advantage both on and off the track. but what would you like to see the future hold here? and what do you think the future of motorsport well, i'm an optimist.

now — in the years to come, i'd love to see that they can look up and see people like them and feel actually right now, you know, thinking, "i would like to do what she's doing and i'd like to work in the f1. "go for it." to go into engineering. there's so much support out there for you. because you absolutely can. and that's it for now. points clear in the race for next season's premier league.
