after england were bowled out early, sam curran stars in the field, as day two of the first test against at edgbaston. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. interest rates are going up for only the second time since 2009. the bank of england's monetary policy committee voted unanimously for the rise, from 0.5 to 0.75%. the increase had been expected, despite concerns over household debt and a slowing of the property market. it means more than 3.5 million mortgages subject to variable or tracker rates will become more expensive. but it's good news for some savers. here's our business editor simonjack. the road to rising interest rates has been a very slow one, like the tarmac on this road near lincoln, rates have been flattened for nearly ten years. that changed today for one main reason, wages are on the move. after years in the doldrums they are rising at 2.7% per year, faster than prices going up in the shops, as employers struggle to recruit and retain staff. that prompted the bank to raise rates by just a quarter to 0.75%. although the economy does not look like it is movi

the england bowlers have all chipped in with wickets, sam curran and ben stokes getting involved.d might be in charge, but india still had virat kohli at the crease. he scored 149th in the first innings. if not for him, india would not be in this test match but while he is there, they still have a good chance. the target is now less than 100 for india. they are 103—5 and if kohli is still there at the end of the day's play, they might feel they are the favourites again. looking ahead to tomorrow, more of the drama could continue. how do you see things balancing out? we should get a fourth day. we had a bit of extra play today because we had some bad light delays earlier. but it is so difficult to call. it keeps changing from almost minute to minute. if kohli is still there at the end, india will fancy their chances. he can get these runs on their own, but if england get him out, there hasn't been much evidence that the rest of this indian batting order can cope with swinging conditions. we might see more of adil rashid tomorrow. he has not played much today. but india will want to

the unlucky player to make way is sam curran.s he has had to make, but that stokes is ready to return. we had to make days' practice to gauge that on in terms of fitness and making sure that he was physically right to play. sat him down last night, just me and him, and asked him quite rudely and honestly, you know, are you in the right place to go out and play for england? and he assured me that he is, absolutely, ready to go and perform at his best. so from that perspective i have no worries or doubts that he won't be able to go and deliver just like he doubts that he won't be able to go and deliverjust like he has done so many times for england. as for india, well, lose here and they will lose the series, so the return of england's star all—rounder is surely all they need. what they say they are looking forward to facing stokes once again. he is a terrific cricketer. we like to play against top cricketers. as simple as that. if he is cleared by the courts, what is the reason for him not to play? i mean, if! is the reason for hi
