you mention the loss of moeen ali's wicket, butjoe root has a half—century, promising from england givenonly lost one wicket in the morning session? it could have been worse. moeen lasted an hour before nathan lyon got him for the seventh time in this series, quite an alarming statistic, but then root came in with bairstow, health problems notwithstanding not too many alarms, they will be pleased they got to lunch and given england a glimmer of a chance. 144—5 at lunch. the england tail is quite long and australia have a second new ball looming, they have used it very well in this match so that period could be very much crucial. you mentioned nathan lyon taking the wicket of moeen ali, has that been the difference in this series, the australian consistency?” the difference in this series, the australian consistency? i think soap. you only have to look at this test match, on the thursday england we re test match, on the thursday england were 220—3 and going well and they lostjoe root were 220—3 and going well and they lost joe root and were 220—3 and going well and they lostjoe root and j

moeen ali took his place, batted for an hour then met a familiar end, dismissed for the seventh timey nathan lyon. incoming, the outpatient, joe root nursed himself to 50 but it was hard going. at lunch, he retired. his series ended not by an aussie but by his belly. australia removed jonny bairstow not long later, the rest was nasty, brutish and short. this was the sort of ruthless cricket that has allowed australia to dominate england and win the series with four big victories to none. emphatic stuff from australia,

be back on their feet not long waited for steve smith's100, but he was out, caught and bowled by moeen ali lbw against khawaja. the review showed it would have hit the stumps, but it was given as a no ball somewhat co ntroversially. was given as a no ball somewhat controversially. khawaja went on to make 150 before crane got that first test wicket when he had him stumped for 171. the marsh brothers then started to take the game away from england as they increasingly attacked towards the end of the day. england must go back into the field day four, when the temperatures will be even hotter. they will be drained. australia very much the advantage. play gets under into hours' time. and that's all the sport for now. the american astronautjohn young, one of 12 men to walk on the moon and who flew the first space shuttle show, has died at 87. he had the longest career of any space astronaut, serving nasa for 42 years and visiting space six times including on the apollo and gemini missions. on his retirement in 2004, nasa described mr young as a true american treasure. this is bbc world news toda

australia having already wrapped up the series, but with a few days to go before their next match, moeen ali and adil rashid are attempting to keep themselves entertained with a bit of a quiz. here is ali asking rashid some general knowledge questions, but he seems to be running into problems with one in particular. who is the president of america? hillary? how? donald trump! he got there in the end. our top story tonight, that is of course, kyle edmund into his first grand slam semifinal at the australian open. he plays marin cilic in the early hours of thursday. phil neville is the new england lionesses manager. we will be right across the second leg of the league cup semifinal between bristol city and manchester city. but from me and the rest of the team at the bbc sports centre, good night. we are now going to look in more detail at the thorny issue of nhs funding. the prime minister rebuked the foreign secretary borisjohnson. he made a highly publicised push to give the health service an extra £100 million a week. let's speak to the conservative mp and former gp sarah wollaston, who als

large part due to an inability to take 20 wickets, which has brought attention on their spinner, moeen ali whole series. there's prospect he may be replaced by mason crane, the leg—spinner with some experience of this part of the world, having played for new south wales in the sheffield shield. whether mason crane plays depends on the pitch and we should get a better look at that tomorrow but england will take part in their performance in melbourne, it was a battle but they have the better of the draw there. i asked mark stoneman, the opening batsmen, whether he felt their momentum had switched towards england... whether he felt their momentum had switched towards england. . ij whether he felt their momentum had switched towards england... i think it is given confidence moving forward , it is given confidence moving forward, the work that we've tried to do and the things that we try and put in place early in the series, they've eventually come through to a degree, but ultimately we want to wina game degree, but ultimately we want to win a game of cricket on this tour. there are few things

moeen ali sayd the team are determined to take a 4—0 lead with victory in the next one dayer which isthe one series we really want to whitewash, especially in australia, but it is something that all the guys are really... after the ashes, even the one—day boys are really keen to win this 5—0. less than two months before the start of the winter paralympics, british parasnowsport has become the latest national governing body to become embroiled in concerns surrounding around athlete welfare. uk sport have launched an independent investigation following allegations made by pa ra—snowboa rder cassie cava who said she was made to feel worthless over her mental health issues. i think my voice hasn't been heard. i've not been listened to or taken seriously, by anyone involved, really. i think, seriously, by anyone involved, really. ithink, how seriously, by anyone involved, really. i think, how i have been treated is incredibly unfair, and overly don't think anyone should be put in this position. i have really suffered in the system, and i want things to change. it was always difficult being

but wait, moeen ali's eureka moment. closed. had the umpire felt the boot was behind the line, mason crane would've had his first test wicket. fine margins. and fine shots from the reprieved usman khawaja, which helped him to 150 and helped australia into a lead only three wickets down. england needed energy, badly. it came from mason crane. this time he had usman khawaja for real. and for 171. but in now baking temperatures the marsh brothers turned england into their stooges, with every run scored by australia's batsmen only adding to the regrets felt by england. a draining day in every sense. so england 133 runs behind, they will have to go back into the field on day four when it will be even hotter. what is more they know this pitch is now spinning more, just in time for their last innings of this ashes series. patrick geary, bbc news in sydney. there's more throughout the evening on the bbc news channel, we are back with the late news at 20 past 9 — now on bbc1 it's time for the news where you are. hello. this is bb

but moeen ali's eureka moment. smith left a void in. crane could have had his first test wicket. only three wickets down. england needed energy badly. it came from crane. they had him for 171. in baking temperatures, the marsh brothers turned the england team into their stooges. a training day in every sense. australia well in charge, england feeling tired. let's hear from both camps. a pretty tough day. we are 150 overs into the innings, there will be a futile bodies out there. that is part and parcel of test cricket. not the first time we will have fielded 150 overs and not the last, i'm sure. the way they toiled out there and work hard was impressive to stop thatis work hard was impressive to stop that is good to see for us as a side going forward. both of the marsh brothers have copped a lot of slack in the last couple of years. to see them go out there and play well, the play the way that we know they could both play, they are great bikes, the whole family is so nice, it is really nice to see. england 133 runs behind and they will have to go back into the field on the fourth

moeen ali's eureka moment. smith left a void, and young mason crane phil dick with an appeal. crane would have had his first test wicket, fine margin. and khawaja reached 150. mason crane then took khawaja for real, but it now baking temperatures, the marsh brothers turning lead into their stooges, with every run scored only adding to the regrets felt by england's batsmen. a draining day in every sense. it was a pretty tough day, we are 150 overs into the innings, there are tired bodies out there, that is part and parcel of te st there, that is part and parcel of test cricket. it's not the first time we will have fielded 150 overs, and it would be the last. i thought that the way that the guys toiled out there and worked hard was really impressive, and that is good to see for us as a side going forward. england 133 runs behind, they will have to go back into the field when it will be even hotter, and they know this pitch is now spinning more just in time for their last innings of this ashes series. great britain's make a and misha mcneill are taking part in the latest round of

so moeen ali took his place, batted for an hour and then met a familiar end.atient. you can't ring in sick if a test match to say. joe root neston sub 250. —— nursed himself to 50. but it was hard going. at lunch he retired. his series ended not by an aussie but by his belly. australia removed jonny bairstow not long later and the rest was nasty, brutish and short. this was exactly the sort of ruthless cricket that has allowed australia to dominate england and win the series with four big victories to none. i do think it's been closer than 4—0. i think we've been on top in some games, if not all the games, at some stage. we've not capitalised on the key moments. all the guys in the dressing room are hurting but that feeling that you get should make you more determined to try and win back the ashes in 2019. the celebrations here are over and it's now about picking up the pieces. england have not won a test match in this country in seven years and haven't come too much closer to doing so. so, what went wrong? perhaps the key moment happened in september in brist

terrible clanger in the field and the rest of the england lower order added useful contributions, moeen aliut on 113 before being bowled out. a good start in the field, stuart broad clean bowling camra. david morley made his customary 50. —— stuart broad clean bowling bancroft. mason crane, that they couldn't leg—spinner, bowled well, but australia were increasingly uncomfortable —— co mforta ble increasingly uncomfortable —— comfortable as the day wore on. england must somehow now work out how to get sniff out. we managed to get smith tourniquet few today but none of them carried. do you think he is immune to getting out? he has got out four times this series. he is playing well and seemed well, but he's only human so we'll keep bowling tomorrow and hope we'll keep bowling tomorrow and hope we get him out. how essential to your possibility of winning the match is getting him early? he is a key player and if we get him out and can take key player and if we get him out and ca n ta ke two key player and if we get him out and can take two or three, we can hopefully get a first innings lead. th

the england head coach trevor bayliss says he still has full belief in all—rounder, moeen ali, despite 19 runs with the bat this series. he is always a guy that likes to keep playing. but... look, i have got full confidence in him going forward, to be honest. i mean, it was only two months ago we were talking about him being one of the best all—rounders in the world. now, he reached the milestone, what was it, 2000 runs and 100 wickets. he got that quicker than everyone else. that's all your sport for now. i will have more in the next hour. thank you very much. china is banning most imports of waste plastics in a bid to cut pollution. authorities say any waste thatis pollution. authorities say any waste that is dirty won't be allowed into the country. countries across the world have relied on china to recycle millions of tonnes every year at a cheap cost. we can now speak to our correspondentjohn sudworth who joins us from beijing. why now? why is china doing this now having for years been taking in so much waste products from other parts of the world? well, this was a process that dov

moeen ali, who has had a poor winter for england, will be with fellow all—rounder woakes at royal challengers, who hit the highest ever odi score for england earlier this month, went to delhi daredevils for £165,000. test captainjoe root is one who so far remains unsold. now we are talking about the fa cup, and alexis sanchez, the most expensive player in terms of wages in premier league history has shown he is worth the money as he ran the show against yeovil. he set up marcus rashford, bursting through to open the scoring for manchester united. sanchez, on paper, is worth 18 yeovil towns in terms of wages each year. romelu lukaku made it a—o late on. i tell you what, he had to put up with some rough and tumble. taken out put up with some rough and tumble. ta ken out by put up with some rough and tumble. taken out by a yeovil player. boos from the crowd as well. but he walked away with a man of the match award, arranged by the sponsors. what did his manager think? he will also bring us this extra maturity and class. we are pleased with him and class. we are pleased with him and he was keen t

at the apparent nearing his hundred steve smith, the uncrackable cold, but wait, moeen ali's eureka moment and crane filled it with an appeal, reviews, first they checked the no ball, and they're the case closed. the umpire felt the boot was behind the line soap —— have the umpire felt he would have had his first hundred. khawaja was helped to 150 and australia into a lead only three wickets down. england needed energy badly. it came from crane, this time with khawaja for a real, and for 171, but in baking temperatures the marsh brothers turned inward into their stooges with every run scored by australian batsman only adding to regret felt by england. a draining day in every sense. it was a tough day, we are 150 overs into the innings, there will be tired bodies out there, that is part and parcel of test cricket, it is not the first time we will have fielded 150 and won't be the last. i thought the way the guys worked doubt there was impressive. that is good to see for us asa impressive. that is good to see for us as a side going forward. england 133 runs behind, they will have to go back

three wickets from moeen ali, including a great caught and bowled. all out for 249 with just under two overs to spare. england win the series 4—1 and now move on to the twenty20 series next month that also involves new zealand. that's all the sport for now. still 1-0 in still 1—0 in the cup tie between manchester city and card. paris remains on high alert, with water levels continuing to rise along the river seine. the country has seen some of the heaviest rain for a century, and the river is expected to rise six metres higher than normal. our europe correspondent kevin connolly has the latest from the french capital. predicting extreme weather is always problematic. the river level is continuing to rise, but the maximum point it is now expected to reach is not as high as it was a couple of days ago and it's thought not likely to reach the levels we saw during the floods of 2016, for example. the people of paris and tourists are adjusting to the swollen river. the police here have issued a warning that you shouldn't swim or go canoeing in the river,

they made a slow start, and when moeen ali was out they were 189—6 in the 39th over.he damage. woakes made an unbeaten 50 and buttler reached a century off the last ball of the innings. a few moments ago australia were 158—3 in the 30th over. alexis sanchez is on the verge of joining manchester united from arsenal, after united midfielder henrikh mkhitaryan agreed to be part of a direct swap. the players will both have their medicals today. mkhitaryan‘s paperwork for his transfer was completed yesterday. the length of the armenian‘s contract at arsenal, and his salary, is undisclosed. sanchez missed arsenal's 4—1 win over crystal palace because he was travelling to manchester. the premier league paid tribute to cyrille regis, with fans across the country taking time to remember the former england striker, who died last week. on the field, there were few surprises with those fighting for a top four finish all winning, as drew savage reports. before the action, time for reflection. football took a minute to celebrate the life of west brom, coventry and and england strik

josh hazlewood's reprieve of moeen ali would even have looked bad on the beach. steam and wickets on 346. so not the score england wanted but not the one they will have dreaded either. they are just about still in this test match. now they must stop australia batting them out of it. how's this for a start? cameron bancroft bowled by stuart broad for a duck. but david warner was born so close to this ground, he seems to still treat it as an extension of his back garden. he passed 50 when out of nowhere, james anderson sent him indoors. england continued to bowl with some skill but no luck and usman khawaja had found his touch. he got his half century and ended up just short of a full one. plus, smith was there. of course he was. now beyond 6000 test runs and counting. england bowlers old and new must believe he's stoppable. he's playing very well, he's obviously seeing it well. but like i said, he's only human, so we'll keep plugging away tomorrow and i feel like if we can get him out, then we can take two or three and hopefully get a first—innings lead. so the pr

ahead of the fourth 0di in australia, england's moeen ali has been talking about the determination inally wa nt to this is the one series we really want to whitewash. especially in australia. i don't think we've ever been 3—0 up here before. it is something all of the guys are after. even after the ashes, even the one—day boys are really keen to win this fight— zero. one—day boys are really keen to win this fight- zero. -- 5-0. england will be without bowler liam plunkett for the remainder tof the 0di series, having pulled up with a hamstring injury during england's16—run win over australia in sydney on sunday. that's all the sport for now. i'll have more for you in the next hour. plans to set up tens of thousands of free water refill points across england are being unveiled today. water uk, representing water companies and suppliers, says it wa nts to companies and suppliers, says it wants to expand refill scheme which was first launched in 2015. it is hoped it will reduce pollution by dramatically cutting the amount of water sold in plastic bottles. across bristol, since 2015, busin

were told to put big partnerships together so too did australia, stunning court and bowled from moeen aliground but are somewhat familiar feeling again. a new ground but are somewhat familiarfeeling in again. a new ground but are somewhat familiar feeling in this series. england victory. rory mcilroy finished second at the dubai desert classic. it was nip and tuck for most of the final round. the northern irishman drawing level with the chinese leader and eventual winner li howtang. a couple of waywrd shots cost mcilroy though. a final hole birdie saw him finish on 22 under but that was one shot behind the winner. if someone had told me at the start of the year you would finish third and second in your first two events i would have said i will take that but being in the positions i've been in and having two close calls the first couple of weeks of the year it's a little difficult and i think the competitor in me is very disappointed right now, i wanted to win, i always want to win. and i didn't do enough when i needed to. england's netballers beat south africa to claim the runners up spot

moeen ali took his place, batted for an hour then met a familiar end, dismissed for the seventh times belly. australia removed jonny bairstow not long later, the rest was nasty, brutish and short. this was the sort of ruthless cricket that has allowed australia to dominate england and win the series with four big victories to none. ido i do think it has been closer than 4-0. we've been on top and some games if not all the games at some stage. we've just not capitalised on key moment. all the guys are hurting, as much as i am. that feeling you get should make you determined to try and win the ashes back in 2019. the celebrations are almost over. so, what went wrong? perhaps the key moment happened in september in bristol, an incident outside of a nightclub that ruled ben stokes out of the series. it invited focus on the off field behaviour and highlighted minor incidents involving jonny bairstow and ben duckett. on the pitch, missed chances with the bat and wider issues with the ball. the captain is only as good as the tool box has in his hand. joe root was missing a spanner his hand.

mistakes, clangers in the field, and the rest of the low order of england added useful contributions, moeen alithe field, stuart b roa d clea n perfect start in the field, stuart broad clean bowling the out of sorts cameron bancroft. david warner, the local boy, made his now customary 50 at the scg butjimmy anderson boulder pirlo to get him and england we re boulder pirlo to get him and england were on a bit of a role, but all that did was bring in steve smith. although he and khawaja had to ride their luck at times, mason crane, debut leg—spinner, bowled well, they we re debut leg—spinner, bowled well, they were increasingly comfortable as the day wore on. they will now hope to bat australia up to and beyond england‘s total. england must somehow work out how to get it out. —— how to get smith out. chelsea look set to sign everton midfielder ross barkley. he‘s expected to have a medical today, ahead of a £15—million move. barkley is out of contract at the end of the season, and although he turned down a transfer to stamford bridge in august, negotiations resumed at the beginning of the week. he

moeen ali got caught out earlier, he was asleep at the wickets.mething to make up for what happened in the ashes. it's the fifth and final one—day international between england and australia in perth, with england having already won the series. australia put england into bat. there were a lot of decent starts for england's batsman butjoe root was the only man to pass 50, eventually getting out for 62. and without him they didn't last much longer — bowled out for 259. australia making good progress and are 86—2 at the moment australia making good progress and are the men's australian open final is just about to start. roger federer is up against marin cilic. the croat will be out for revenge, having being beaten by federer in the final at wimbledon last year. federer is going for a 20th grand slam title. it would be amazing. i can't believe how fast now the week has turned out to be, and yeah, i mean, it's, it ain't just to be, and yeah, i mean, it's, it ain'tjustan to be, and yeah, i mean, it's, it ain't just an easy trip to be, and yeah, i mean,

ahead of the fourth odi in australia, england's moeen ali has been talking about the determination inthis is one series we really want to whitewash. especially in australia, i don't think we have ever been 3—0 up i don't think we have ever been 3—0 up before. after the ashes, even the one day boys are really keen to reach 5—0. england will be without bowler liam plunkett for the remainder of the od! series, having pulled up with a hamstring injury during england's16—run win over australia in sydney on sunday. paula radcliffe's "mixed—gender" race world record could be broken by kenya's mary keitany at this years london marathon. the record of two hours, 15 minutes and 25 seconds has stood for 15 years — but keitany will aim to beat it using use male pacemakers. athletics' world governing body recognises two world records — mixed—gender and women—only — and last year, keitany broke radcliffe's women—only world best in a time of 2 hours, 17 minutes and one second. not bad running, simon. you're absolutely right. theresa may hazmat president trump for the first time since that twitter sp

so moeen ali took his place, batted for an hour and then met a familiar end.rt. this exactly the sort of ruthless cricket that has allowed australia to dominate england and win the series with four big victories to none. i do think it‘s been closer than a—0. i think we‘ve been on top in some games, if not all the games, at some stage. we‘ve not capitalised on the key moments. all the guys in the dressing room are hurting but that feeling that you get should make you more determined to try and win back the ashes in 2019. the celebrations here are over and it‘s now about picking up the pieces. england have not won a test match in this country in seven years and haven‘t come too much closer to doing so. so, what went wrong? perhaps the key moment happened in september in bristol. the incident outside a nightclub, which ruled england star ben stokes out of the series. that invited a focus on england‘s off—field behaviour and highlighted minor incidents involving jonny bairstow and ben duckett. on the pitch, there have been missed chances with the bat and wider iss

it meant he could not resume his innings this morning and moeen ali had to come in in his place.to lunch but he was clearly unwell and uncomfortable so we had to retire. from there australia made pretty swift progress. they got rid of the english tail and slap them away. to their credit england never stopped fighting and they have not broken up as previous ‘s sites have but the question is will now be asked. why we re question is will now be asked. why were they not competitive in this series? why have they not won a test match in australia to seven years? philippe coutinho's £1a2 million move to barcelona from liverpool will be rubber stamped later this morning. he will be paraded at camp nou and will become the second most expensive player in the world, with only his fellow brazilian neymar ahead of him. the fourth round draw is live on bbc two from seven o'clock tonight and takes place just before brighton and crystal palace play the final third round tie. that game will see video assistant referee technology used for the first time in a competitive club match in england. it w
