hello again. all the way to tenth. that includes chelsea who ended the day in the top four thanks to a 4—0 victory over southampton. chelsea went into the game on the back of two straight by the league's bottom team. pedro neto scored one and made one of chelsea's three goals that came in the first half. it's the home side's first clean sheet in 10 attempts. while southampton will have 11 games left to bridge a gap in some games, we have been unlucky. important thing is to think

about the next one. to winning ways? yes, it's happy, it's good. the players, they were happy. the day in the top four but they were beaten ——with. ismaila sarr scored twice for crystal palace on his 27th a third win in their last four league games. villa drop to 10th with hopes of champions league football season's competition. to do and they did it in a fantastic intensity in an excellent level. and so we just talked

about what we want to do, rodrigo muniz with the winner at molineux as fulham move really pleased for all of them, great effort from all. we showed the quality. a bit more with the ball because we had the chances to and we deserved to win. victory over the team third in the table, having lost

forjust the second time in the league this season at the weekend. to give him everything they've got after taking over his dimissal followed successive home defeats i expect them to give me everything they've got coaching staff will as well. understand my expectations of them. but before wednesday's game at wembley, france

they beat iceland in group 2. while germany, norway and denmark all got their first wins of this edition. as did the netherlands who went behind to scotland but came back to claim a 2—1victory. sweden were held by wales. anticipated games of the tournament didn't even have a toss. the result means if australia and south africa win their next two games, starting with afghanistan later on wednesday.

participation in sport has effectively been outlawed — have been unsuccessful. the former england batterjonathan trott i know they are very aware of what's going on in their country. and the majority of players who have a voice on social media — if you go through social media — they have very much voiced their disapproval of what's currently taking place and the importance of equality for everybody. between right and wrong. everything that they are going through or the country's knowing what's the difference between right and wrong. as a side, we work very hard in bringing joy — as we've seen in various tournaments when we've won

matches — to the country. as we said, the guys are very passionate and very brave but also very proud to be able to do that. all they're doing is asking for equality and trying to grow the game of cricket. and where they come from. rob key and the ecb have been excellent at assisting and supporting and speaking to the real experts on these i'm really glad that the game will go ahead. i'm obviously very sad for the women and girls in afghanistan who are going through a very tough time at the moment. i think we're all very aware of that.

watching, that we all love playing — can give some hope in what is a tough time. that talk of a boycott has dominated the build up to this england and afghanistan after their opening defeats. the bbc�*s henry moeran is in lahore. you've won a world cup. and it does get a little bit simpler in a way. absolutely. you've just got to win your next two games. so england, they've got to win their next two. things are pretty simple in this competition. you lose a game, there's a little bit of leeway.

in india where they lost those three odis, they actually batted quite well. scored more than 350. yeah. ridiculous, doesn't it? but yeah, you would think at the halfway stage england would have enough runs on the board. england have won one match this year in a t20 against india in an otherwise very disappointing tour. conversation building. yeah. white ball setup. you know, some things probably don't necessarily need to change. they've obviously got the new head coach brendon mccullum. what changes he can implement into the side. we've already seen changes to the starting 11, jamie smith batting at number three. so you've got to give this team time under new management.

there's no brydon carse, out injured. in comes rehan ahmed as a replacement player. yeah. normally it's a like for like replacement, isn't it? i'm not necessarily sure. to come into the side. well, we'll wait and see. england against afghanistan — a side that they lost be ta ken lightly. they've got to start winning matches. on the radio or indeed via the bbc sport website. against barcelona after six minutes, it ended up 4—1; —

that's it for now, thanks forjoining us, bye—bye. hello. the start of march. with some pretty heavy bursts of rain, some snow mixing in over the tops of the pennines, high ground in the southern uplands. but that band of rain should pivot its way northern ireland and scotland

perhaps seeing a fair northern scotland doing perhaps best of all for dry weathetandsunshine; 7—10 celsius. a few showers into the northwest of the uk — but where we see clearing skies, temperatures will drop as we head into thursday morning. and through thursday, well, we see this ridge some early splashes of rain, i think, across parts northern and western parts of scotland. should bring quite a lot of sunshine and temperatures

establishes itself more strongly, the winds will fall light, we will see quite a widespread frost and some fog, as well — and some of that fog could linger through friday morning, it should clear. a bit breezy up towards the northwest, and temperatures of around 9—10 celsius. so that's how we end february — what about the start of march? with us into the weekend. but running into our area of high pressure, this cities of the uk — you can check your local forecast on the bbc weather app.
