it's been sapping, draining for the england bowlers and the england fielders.a short turnaround to the fourth test which begins on friday. this was the first time in a series that england had picked two seam bowlers. they'd gone for three spinner and one seamer in the third test. so that might be another option depending on the pitch. they'd gone for three spinners and one seamer in the first two tests. so that might be another option depending on the pitch. bashir could come into the equation. and if england want to freshen up the attack, they have 0lly robinson and atkinson a bowler with a lot of pace waiting in the wings. one thing that would help ben stokes straightaway with winning the toss. because so far in this series, the three test matches have been won by the side that has won the toss and batted first. manchester united scored afterjust 36 seconds and went on to win for a third time in a row in the premier league. rasmus hojlund got that early goal and then a second six minutes later to give united an eventual 2—1 victory at luton. the danish strike

as you say, england came into _ untiltoday? as you say, england came into this _ untiltoday?e into this match _ untiltoday? as you say, england came into this match in - untiltoday? as you say, england came into this match in a - untiltoday? as you say, englandi came into this match in a slightly strange situation in some ways because they had won both their opening matches but had not been particularly impressive. this was going to be their toughest test of the six nations so far and although they got off to a bright start, the mistakes crept in and they ultimately fell short. it leaves steve borthwick with a fair amount of thinking to do because their last two matches are on paper, you could argue, their toughest two matches, particularly their next one, which is against ireland. of course, they are the reigning six nations champions, they won the grand slam last year and are still on track for a grand slam this year. that will be a grand slam this year. that will be a huge challenge for england. then they have friends in their final match of the six nations, so it will onl

england have ta ken england have taken so much criticism for it being too aggressive in the second andgs when the pitch was difficult, england buckled down, they kept themselves to that 353 thanks tojoe root�*s century. i do wonder if they could have been slightly more aggressive against india's spinners on this sunday afternoon. if there was ever a time for baz bolling, this was it. you're quite right to say that england �*s run rate of 2.69 was their slowest to christ innings since ben stokes took over as captain alongside the coach. in some of england's dismissals were a little bit tentative. ben stokes was trying to defend and play the ball, johnny bearsjoe defend and play the ball, johnny bears joe platted defend and play the ball, johnny bearsjoe platted a to extra cover. it was cruelly bears joe bearsjoe platted a to extra cover. it was cruelly bearsjoe who where —— probably embarrassed over the most aggressive. so you do wonder if on this occasion england where just a little bit timid, if they were a little bit nervous. and it's strange, isn't it, they are damned if they do and

sunny spells for england and wales.ds. but it's a northeasterly wind that follows that will bring the odd shower into eastern england, perhaps into the midlands, as well. and it'll feel chilly in that wind across the southeast of england. temperatures could make ten celsius, but we're looking at 8—9 being more typical — similar to what we've had over the past few days. the winds do drop across south eastern areas after dark, and it gets cold and frosty for england and wales ahead of that weather front moving down from the northwest, together with some stronger winds. so a band of wet and windy weather sweeps through scotland and northern ireland, pushes into england and wales. most of the rain will be over the hills, followed by sunshine and blustery showers. wintry over higher parts of scotland. may well be largely dry across the midlands, east anglia, and the southeast — but it'll be quite cold, and there could be some mist and fog around in the morning. that weather front bringing the rain continues to weaken as it m

they have won the last three calcutta cup contests against england.. going back to my first plan was scotland, it was a massive game, one of the biggest games in the calendar, but now we have got to agree a position where they are all kind of similar. we are not satisfied by beating just one or two teams in this competition. it is still a massive game and the history behind it, but for us, we have to approach it asjust behind it, but for us, we have to approach it as just another game, another chance for us to get a victory. the funeral has been held for the kenyan marathon world record—holder kelvin kiptum, who died in a car crash last sunday. kiptum and his rwandan coach, gervais hakizimana, were killed in a crash in western kenya. kiptum was one of the most exciting prospects to emerge in road running having broken the world record in only his third appearance in an elite marathon. kenyan president william ruto and iaaf president sebastian coe were both in attendance in chepkorio. more embarrassment for bahrain. for the second day running formula o

if it does turn out to be 3—1, you said england would be 3—1 down afterfour said england would be 3—1 would be 3—1 down afterfour tests, you'd said england would be 3—1 down after four tests, you'd think that wasn't that bad and effort. forany that wasn't that bad and effort. for any visiting team coming to india, the regret comes from the opportunities england have had for the score line to be much closer than that, level it to 2—2 or even get england in front. we will see england pull off something or markable in the fourth day, and if they can't, they'll look back at these four tests and wonder what might�*ve been, and they'll go to the fifth test thinking that 4—1, if they were to lose there, would not be a fair reflection of the series. italy were just inches away from one of the biggest upsets in the history of the six nations championship. after fighting back to draw level against iii—man france in lille, paolo garbisi kicked what would have been the winning penalty against the upright. it finished 13—13, the first draw between the two nations. i must think about trusting my pr

england collapsed as their attack...t india did most of this without their star spinner who returned from a family emergency in time for the penultimate wicket. this team love to surprise, just not like this. well, the england captain ben stokes is remaining optimistic. stokes won his 100th test cap in rajkot — and said the team knows what they have to do, to get back in the series — and that it wouldn't be helpful to dwell too long on what went wrong. played 100 test matches now and i know that thinking too deep into certain things can send you on a downhill spiral. it's about what we do in the next two games. i said after the first game that as good as it was, as good a feeling as it was, we need to move onto the second game. i said that after the last game and i say after this game as well. we put everything behind us and focus on the next two games. so will england change their ways, given the nature of the last two test defeats in india? earlier i spoke to our chief cricket writer stephan shemilt, who explained to m

it has been sapping, draining for the england bowlers and the england fielders, and there is a shortto the fourth test in ranchi — that begins on friday. this was the first time in the series that england had picked two seam bowlers. they had gone for three spinners and one seamer in the first two tests, so that might be another option in ranchi depending on the pitch. shoaib bashir could come into the equation. and if england want to freshen up their bowling attack, they've got ollie robinson and the uncapped gus atkinson, a bowler who's got a lot of pace, waiting in the wings. one thing that would help ben stokes straight away is winning the toss, because so far in this series, the three test matches have been won by the side that won the toss and batted first. manchester united scored after just 36 seconds and went on to win for a third time in a row in the premier league. rasmus hojlund got that early goal and then a second six minutes later to give united an eventual 2—i victory at luton. the danish striker has now scored in six straight games, with his team staying sixth in the

england cricket captain ben stokes said he was happy with the way england went about their run chase,ing the second test in india by 106 runs. the series is now level at 1—1. chasing 399 to win, england were bowled out for 292, jack crawley top scoring with 73. india were impressive in their bowling, particularly jasprit bumrah who took nine wickets. ravi ashwin also took three for 72 and is now on 499 test wickets. stokes says he was encouraged by england's performance. i was happy with the way in which we went about that chase. that's exactly how we play cricket. when an opportunity presents itself and it's sort of a pressure situation, i think that actually genuinely brings the best out of people. it doesn't always work, but, you know, there was a lot of times where we were on top of india and then india were able to produce something that then put them back on top. it's well known that it's difficult to get a win in india, and their head coach rahul dravid has been complimentary of england's bazball approach. it's not like it's wild slogging. they're actually showing some very goo
