england will resume on day three of the final ashes test with a lead of 78 afterjofra archer helped bowlon the second day, england were again frustrated by smith but the celebrations that greeted his departure for 80 were fitting. but once chris woakes removed him, jofra archer took over, finishing with 6 wickets for 62 runs, including the final dismissal of peter siddle — rory burns with a stunning catch. england will resume on 9 without loss in their second innings. it would mean a lot for the team obviously there is still a lot to play for as it has championships and even our own personal game, you know, so although the ashes is lost we still have got a lot to play for. now, it was billed as friday 13th fright night in the super league, as one of four teams faced relegation in the final round of fixtures. in the end, it was london broncos whose luck ran out. they were beaten by wakefield, whose19—10 win saved them from relegation. for the broncos, they return to the championship after one season in the top flight. huddersfield and hull kr also survive. after the international break, t

england have got some great bowlers, archer, walks. we can see them —— works.re with the ball. jason roy is my favourite player of i grappling with him in the academy in surrey. —— i grew up playing with him. he learned his cricket from the former new zealand captain brendon mccullum and he is going to be taking that they are against new zealand today. whether they back together, they put ona numberof whether they back together, they put on a number of hundred run partnership is that a set england up so well. so if and just do what they do, one or both come up, don't forget we have ben stokes who could have set some direct offer. an exciting team to watch today. psychologically it is so good in terms of the way that they had pete at the right time. and a gun patch in the grip, in the team at the time, australia were looking like the tim —— having gone through that bad patch in the group. every team any bad patch in the group. every team a ny world bad patch in the group. every team any world cup run with needs those pick—ups. i got annoyed after that lost hirsc

it's just two days until england's first test against south africa and jofra archer, stuart broad and. captainjoe root says he'll trust the players to decide if they're fit to feature. and a statue of the former sweden and manchester united striker zlatan ibrahimovic has been vandalised yet again in his hometown. this time, malmo fans have sawn off his nose. previously, they tried to soar through one of the legs and they put a toilet seat around the neck. the statue went up in october but last month, ibrahimovic invested in rival swedish team hammarby, and malmo fans have taken out their anger on the statue. it is only a game. get over it. people hold a grudge when it comes to rivals. that is such a horrible thing. ifind the to rivals. that is such a horrible thing. i find the toilet seat quite funny because that is a challenge in itself. but soaring off the nose is not nice. not nice at all. —— sawing. let's take a look at today's papers. the front pages look ahead to the queen's christmas message. the times quotes her majesty as saying it has been a "bumpy time" and say she's urging

bowlers jofra archer and stuart broad do look like they've recovered though and captainjoe root is tryingo guys out in overton and bess and they have trained very well in the last couple of days as back up. and that's why they're here. because these things can happen sometimes. you've got to deal with it as sometimes. you've got to deal with itasa sometimes. you've got to deal with it as a side. and, fortunately, we have some very fortunate players who have some very fortunate players who have been in and around the squad, and if given an opportunity would be desperate to prove a point and stead there on the series. it might only be boxing day, but one game today could go a long way to deciding the premier league title. liverpool could go 13 points clear at the top if they win at second placed leicester. it's a busy time of year with most teams playing twice in two days. liverpool bossjurgen klopp has some strong opinions on it all. none of us managers has a problem with boxing day. none of us. but plainly 26 out of 28 is a crime. it absolutely not ok. and we still have it. every year the

archer is very cute! good morning to you at home. we have got fine weather on the cards for many of us through the course of today and for tomorrow as well but if you are not a fan of the cold and the snow showers, you might want to look away. certainly for the here and now, some sunshine around, not everywhere. they will be more cloud across parts of central and particularly eastern england, so if you have the cloud through the date it will feel cooler, particularly with the breeze coming in off the north sea for the likes of east anglia and the south—east as well. a fair amount of cloud for central and eastern england and also for northern scotland for a time. that should clear towards the north so the cloud will tend to thin and break a little bit later on, but lots of blue sky fought lots of scotland, northern ireland, wales and down towards the south—west as well. 11— 13 degrees typically. 16 for eastern scotland, but only eight or 94 eastern england, whether breeze is coming in off the north sea. yo

it looks likejoe root‘s side will be withoutjofra archer who is injured.finals of the masters. he beat the two—time winner mark williams 6—2 at alexandra palace. an incredible result for ireland's cricket team. they beat t20 world champions the west indies by four runs in a high—scoring international in grenada. 0ne one of the reasons to watch cricket at this time of year. the sunshine. looked so nice! something i have missed! i wonder if there is more coming our way? very good! you have been here before! for many years! but you say that but look at what mrs is delivering, barely a rainbow and loads of grey clouds! there is a bit of sunshine in the forecast but not a lot today, but some to start with. good morning, everybody. we're starting with some sunshine in some parts of the uk but also got strong winds and heavy rain coming our way. already quite gusty across parts of the north, the west and also parts of the south currently, but those winds will strengthen through the day and you can see from the closeness of these isobars, where you are will be win

joffra archer is expected to be involved.he is glad he is with england. it's great that he is in an england shirt at the moment. he won't know how it will feel until he plays the game, being in that position myself, does feel different the first time you play against a side that either you play against a side that either you could have potentially played for or played for but i'm sure he will handle it like he has handled everything else he has been offered. it was another frustrating day at the cricket world cup with the match between new zealand and india rained off at trent bridge, without a ball being bowled. it's the fourth match in the tournament to be lost to rain, the previous record for a world cup was two. persistent rain in nottingham prevented the captains even getting out there for the coin toss. england's women meanwhile completed a 3—0 series win, over west indies, with victory in a rain—affected final match, of their one—day series. the highlight was this sensational catch by fran wilson. well worth a second l

they've named their 15—man squad for the home tournament, and in it is this man, joffra archer.more experience. vaughan says the squad is the right one, and england now need to deliver. this england side have earned the right to be favourites because they've played really good cricket. they got to the semifinals of the champions trophy two years ago, didn't get over the line on that occasion and they've got to use that asa occasion and they've got to use that as a really positive experience, so if they get into the semis again, play smart, play smart cricket, brave cricket as well, you have to play brave in the conditions they're going to play in and people around the country will see spectacular cricket and the england team are going to be right at the heart of what we are seeing. tyson fury says a world heavyweight title rematch with deontay wilder is likely to happen next year. wilder retained his wbc belt with a thrilling draw against fury in los angeles in december, and knocked out fellow american dominic breazeale on saturday. fury says wilder can't run forever, and says t
