a big day for pakistan, one that brings a boost to the country's stock market as today is when pakistance the msci emerging markets index, that list looks at top rank stocks from around the world, they use those lists to determine where and how much to invest in stocks. it signals that things could be turning around for a nation where political and terror related problems have taken centre stage. pakistan used to be part of the index but was removed due to the decision to shut down for four months in late 2008 after prices dropped dramatically meaning foreign investors could not get their money out. we arejoined by investors could not get their money out. we are joined by our correspondent now. why are they back in the club? well, i think if you ta ke in the club? well, i think if you take a look at the performance of the stock exchange, versus the msci emerging markets index, the grass itself can tell you pretty much everything about why the msci has decided to re—include pakistan back into its emerging markets index. this blue line, consistently outperforming emerging markets. that is

pakistan has forged an alliance. and the former head of pakistan's i.s.i. is called the father of the taliban. pakistan nuclear scientists met with senior al qaeda, leadership to discuss the terrorist group's desire to acquire nuclear technology. in 1998, several pakistani officers were killed in an al qaeda training camp by the united states. well, what were they doing there? they were training the al qaeda and terrorist activity. this was retaliation by the u.s. or the africa embassy bombing. 2001, pakistan i.s.i. helped revive the taliban after it was defeated by the united states in the northern alliance. while pakistan is fighting the pakistani taliban, it allows the afghan taliban or what it refers to as the good taliban to operate freely in its territory. let me try to explain this. there is the pakistani taliban, operating in pakistan. the pakistan government goes after those people because they are causing crimes in pakistan. but there is the afghan taliban that operates out of pakistan that is supported by i.s.i. and works in afghanistan to kill n

and pakistan took control of the game.1 one day international is. it was look like a target that pacdun could get if the weather allowed. weather forecast threatening again, they got the required run rate. —— internationals. they reach 100 and 19 in 37 overs. —— pakistan. the adjusters cause get a victory by 19 runs. we had a good run yesterday. if we were bowling to the right areas, we had a good chance. the good thing is today that we took readers. if you take wickets, every good team is under pressure. readers. if you take wickets, every good team is under pressurelj readers. if you take wickets, every good team is under pressure. i think disappointing factor was that one of oui’ disappointing factor was that one of ourtop disappointing factor was that one of our top four, i suppose, got to a new ball to look after the spinners. so there is a new batch of basing a spanner, so there is a new batch of basing a spanner, that is or is it to be tough to do. that is one each for south africa and pakistan. both teams are a win

were you leading al—muhajiroun in pakistan?he london bombings in 2005. where does that leave us? well, islamist extremist networks are very well established and it's been made far worse by support for the so—called islamic state. has the failure to grasp the nettle early enough left the uk with an intractable problem? i think the figure of 23,000, which has recently been released by m15, as being people they're concerned about being involved in some way in jihadist activity is probably the tip of the iceberg. many of the idealogical extremists featured in this film were later involved in terrorists plots. others like sajeel shahid have never been charged with any offence. there's no suggestion that he had a hand in directing the attack — but in an ideological sense, it does connect the present threat with the old extremist network of al—muhajiroun. and this network, tolerated for so many years, is part of the story behind the unprecedented islamist terror threat we face today. richard watson there on the ideology behind the lon

pakistan were simply outplayed in every department.hirts to have a chance of reaching the semifinals. they need to raise their game against south africa. it is no wonder, then, that their coach, mickey arthur, is feeling the pressure. this is how he responded to a suggestion that pakistan have got worse since he took over. that is an insult, to say we are playing worse. if you look at oui’ we are playing worse. if you look at our records we are playing worse. if you look at oui’ records over we are playing worse. if you look at our records over the last year, we have won two series. we've gone from number nine to number eight, and our brand of cricket has changed. we are trying our best and try to change it. and it will not overnight. i saidi it. and it will not overnight. i said i was disappointed. but you asked me that question is an insult to how hard these boys are trained in what they have done. after beating sri lanka comfortably in their opening match, south africa should be feeling confident. the protea a re should be feeling c

pakistan slowly, delayed agony, but no reviews here for this out. pakistan three down.any. but the rain came in the 30th over and england were miles ahead on adjusted targets. they could happily watch the cover is safe in their victory. still to come, i am ronnie 0'sullivan and i will be speaking to you on why i chose to write a novel. the british and irish lions missed out on a morale boosting win as they drew their final tour match with the super rugby side hurricanes. it finished 31 points all, as warren gatland's side squandered a 14 point lead. with the focus now shifting to the two must win tests against new zealand to come. our sports correspondent katie gornall is in wellington for us. well, there were thousands of lions fans who turned up here to the westpac stadium, knowing that this is a make or break week for their side. warren gatland's priority was always going to be saturday's second test here against the all blacks, but this is hardly the warm up he would have wanted. the final midweek match of the lions tour, and wellington gave it a sense of occasion.

afghanistan is right next door to pakistan.e need to plan for a long-term presence in this part of the world. we don't have any alternative. host: thanks for calling in this morning. anthony: one of the problems they have, and you recognize the difference between the colors positions, you don't get to choose your threats. you don't get to choose the conditions under which you can act. the problems are not of our choosing, we can only do what host countries will support and are capable of supporting. with afghanistan, i think the critical issue is if we do provide these extra troops, if ,e restructure the mission boost the counterterrorism force , and as we already have -- increase the airpower effort, is that going to be enough? to try. way to know is the problem we have is these wars are civil and military conflicts. ,f we can't get reform political unity, popular support for the government, the civil side is critical as the military side. staying depends not simply on our will, it depends critically on the afghan government.

pakistan started

pakistan three down.de, and she looked composed in this company. when the rain came in the 30th over, england were miles ahead in the adjusted targets. they could watch the covers happy, safe in their victory. novak djokovic's hopes of gaining some much—needed practice will have to wait for 2h hours at least after his match at the aegon international in eastbourne was washed out. the former world number one had taken the first game against canada's vasek pospisil when the rains came and never went away. they'll try again tomorrow. as will i, perhaps! the current world number one andy murray pulled out of today's exhibition match at the hurlingham club in london, citing soreness in his hip. he is still expected to play at the club on friday, before beginning the defence of his wimbledon title on centre court on monday afternoon. and finally, footballers will do just about anything to stop an opponent by fair means or foul. the sneaky pull on the shirt‘s been a tactic for as long as the game's been played.

pakistan into the final having beat england on wednesday but here's what happened, bangladesh batted7, iqbal, who opened their innings with a top score of 70, rahim picking up 61 and then mortaza and mahmudullah getting 30 and 21. what wasn't an issue was for the indians, rohit sharma, another century for rohit sharma, and virat kohli, that innings of 96 took him over 8001—day international runs. he didn't get his century because rohit sharma hit a six to win his match. those two players, seeing them through to that final, there will be millions of people watching on sunday on sunday in that final against pakistan. they played earlier in the tournament and india w011 earlier in the tournament and india won by 124 runs on the duckworth—lewis system and since then pakistan have really improved. patrick gearey was there watching the match. if you went on the enthusiastic mod theirfans if you went on the enthusiastic mod their fans you would think every game they played was bangladesh's biggest yet, this one probably was. their first biggest yet, this one probably was. theirfirst major b

india, china, russia, pakistan.ant will this bloc be going forward?|j climate accord. how important will this bloc be going forward? i think it will take time to work out its agenda. i don't think until now the shanghai cooperation 0rganisation has converged properly. it will take time. each country has its own respective agenda. they are inspiring to play bigger roles in the world. but the bigger powers don't usually converge easily because they have bilateral dynamics individually. it will take time to work out a cohesive agenda. more importantly, the group will be left wondering as to what the us is up to next. so that is going to be a major point of surprise. and now the question of iran in the discussions. they could be at loggerheads as they move on. thank you, sir, for your insights. some breaking news coming to us from scotla nd some breaking news coming to us from scotland yard. the detectives investigating the london bridge terror attack have made three more arrests. two of the men were held on suspicion o

the 600,000 refugees that have come back are forced out of pakistan. again, the government has been trying to devise plans and then get the funding to make sure that these people are reintegrated. one of the debates that is going on in afghanistan is that if the refugees come back from pakistan, with the level of violence because the afghans will not be able to be trained in pakistan by whatever forces and then come back and fight here. so on a personal level because i enjoy living here and i think the price of living in a free society like this one are way more than you can do there but of course politics is what is driving everything in this country. peter: when you talk about politics, given the level of violence we're talking about, has not the time come for the international community to admit that all its efforts have been in vain and that the project of bringing peace to afghanistan is simply a failure. malaiz: all would be harsh. it's not all in vain. i'll give you an example. students 0 afghan have been trained in germany and hold bachelors dr

where china looked at pakistan. more assertive pakistan which is a core issue for mr. modi. betty: we know a big issue has been the u.s. trade deficit with china, but when you look at the i want our viewers to look at bloomberg, the trade deficit with india has been on a steady climb higher for the last 20 years. it may not be as large as the the with china, but how is sentiment? richard: i would see it as half full rather than half empty. 38 -- if you look at the last three years, they have been steady around $38 billion with the latest data for 2016. you can put that in context for your viewers. with china it is about $300 billion, so it is 10 times smaller. there is further angering around that germany and mexico are twice as big. i don't think this will be a key area for trump to focus on compared to yawning trade deficits with china. from thet the comments trade department, goods and services arresting to 16% over the last year, but that is a healthy growth rate. if i was mr. modi, those are factoids i would be

pakistan versus india is a lwa ys runs.ersus india is always a final, and this time it is the final. i think it is a 300, 310 wicket. to reduce them, to 260, we never let them get there. from that point of view it was pretty clinical by the bowlers. looking at how flat the wicket was, as well. it's the first round of the us open in wisconsin. rickie fowler took the clubhouse lead with a record equalling seven under par 65. the best opening round in the tournament since 1980. the leader board has been dominated by american players. but england's tommy fleetwood is in touch after going round on five under par. lee westwood finishing on three under par. casey made a blistering start with an eagle on the first hole. players have criticised the calls for being too unforgiving, especially the rough, where there have been some very low scoring rounds on the opening day. —— players have criticised the course. jordan pickford has become the most expensive british goalkeeper, everton bought him for £30 million from sunderland. he has
