Few days, bringing plenty of showers and it will be quite windy. Elsewhere, clear spells and scattered showers towards the south and west, but with lighter winds through the midlands into eastern england, here we are likely to see mist and fog tomorrow morning. That should burn off quickly, the winds a bit lighter here. Then its a Repeat Performance. Outbreaks of rain, persist at the time is raised in scotland. But for most, it is sunshine and scattered showers, mostly in the south and west. It will also be quite windy, some huge waves crashing up on shore, and some of their showers will be heavy and thundery. On saturday, similar weather again. We keep on with the rain. For Eastern Scotland, the Rainfall Totals are mounting up. Elsewhere, scattered showers. Towards the end of the day, we could be looking at heavy rain and stronger winds approaching the south of the country. For the next few days, temperatures range from ten to 15 degrees. That band of heavy rain with strong winds spread northwards through Saturday Night into sunday. The rain will be lying across parts of scotland and northern england, so a band of persistent rain here with strong winds. Colder air coming from scandinavia, so we could see wintriness over the high ground of scotland. Elsewhere, its a Repeat Performance again. Sunshine with scattered showers, large waves crashing up on southern coasts. Temperatures ranging from Single Digits in the north to 14 or 15 in the south. Thanks. Hello and welcome to sportsday. More misery for the defending champions at the cricket world cup, heavy loss for england against sri lanka. England accuse world rugby of denying the tom curry a fair hearing over his allegation of an On Field Racial Slur by south africas Bongi Mbonambi. And a ten month ban from football for Sandro Tonali as the Newcastle Midfielder is found to have breached betting rules by the italian federation. Good evening. Lets start with englands campaign at the mens cricket world cup, which is all but over for the defending champions. They were comprehensively beaten by sri lanka. And while their hopes are not over mathematically, the eight wicket loss heaped more misery on their time in india, where its now four losses in five games. In formerly known as bangalore, england formally known as world beaters, reached a new low. They still have four games to play, but after a fourth defeat in india, they know they arent making up the numbers.

So is this, beaten by angelo mathews, was that a nick . A closer look showed there was. The dominoes were falling. No review needed for this despitejoe root� s desperate dive. It is worth pointing out england chose to bat first, that was Jonny Bairstow holding out. Khan was needed from the cattle arejos buttler. Nojoy needed from the cattle arejos buttler. No joy there and more wickets followed. Ben stokes came out of Whiteboard Retirement for moments like this. He top scored, but 43 runs wasnt nearly enough. Massive wicket for sri lanka. When he went, so did all realistic hope. What can england cling to for the rest of the tournament . Very little, day took just two wickets today. A Century Partnership for sri lanka sort them cruised to their target of 157. India and australia are next in line for england. There could be more pain before the relief of the play that brings them home. Olly foster, bbc news. The aeroplane. Paul farbrace. A former Assistant Coach with england. It is not true lack of effort or experience or know how. But confidence plays a huge part in sport at this level and unfortunately, the first defeat against new zealand was such a heavy defeat, it really was. They played well in the bangladesh game, but the last two games, south africa, afghanistan have been two really poor defeats. And sometimes it is but at this level when you lose an early wicket, it can erode the confidence. And i thoughtjoe root would come in, every other player probably thought the same, he would calm things down, he got run out. And from that moment on, everything unravelled very, very quickly. And confidence just looked like unravelled very, very quickly. And confidencejust looked like it seeped away from the team. And i do think the previous defeats have really hurt this team badly. You seak of really hurt this team badly. You speak of the really hurt this team badly. You speak of the players and they have achieved so much and have so much skill. Is this a step too far for where this team are at and may be refreshing with a new generation of players . It refreshing with a new generation of la ers . ,. ,. , players .

It is always easy to say that at the end of a players . It is always easy to say that at the end of a tournament| that at the end of a tournament when the tournament doesnt go as well. It looks as though england are probably out of this world cup, mathematically they are not and they will still hopefully believe they can win every game from here and still win it, but it looks highly unlikely. I think sometimes, you have to look at tournaments and say, is it about the preparation, the players, selection . Ithink is it about the preparation, the players, selection . I think england picked the right squad for this world cup. I thought they had the right balance with all rounders and quality batters and bowlers within the side. But theyjust havent functioned as a team, theyjust havent played well enough. Jos buttler said himself after the game, hes the captain and he has not played well enough in the way he has batted and the runs he would expect to score. And i think sometimes, it might need a little bit of looking back on to work out exactly why they havent played well. But there is so much quality and know how and it is not looking to do something they have not done before. They have won two world cups in the past and with a very Similar Group of players. So you cant say they have become bad players or a bad team overnight. But the way they played, they do look as though they have not played often together before and the confidence has just been sapped out of them. And it is really tough to watch and it must be horrendous to be in that Dressing Room in bangalore at the moment.

A little bit earlier, we have heard that tonal has now been banned from football for ten months and he has been fined 20,000 euros following the ban of his former italian team mate a few weeks earlier tonali. Tonali has also been told he now has to attend a number of courses for people who are recovering with gambling addiction. It has been a very sad end for tonali, who has had a fantastic three month period which saw him become the most expensive italian footballer in the world ever when he made that big money move, £55 million of course from ac milan to newcastle injuly. He scored on his Premier League debut. And he also went on to play in the Champions League as recently as last night in that 10 league as recently as last night in that 1 0 defeat in the Champions League.

And earlier today, before the announcement of tonalis ban was announced, we heard the wolves boss gary oneil say there needs to be good education for players around gambling. But there has been huge pressure recently on clubs across the country in all divisions to remove the sponsorship of Gambling Companies from the front of Gambling Companies from the front of their shirt. The Premier League is a Premier League teams will be doing that by the start of the 2027 to 2028 season. One charity who have really been pushing for this to remove gambling from football altogether, the big step, they came out today and said are humans and rather than lengthy bans like we have seen with tonali today, what they really need is empathy.

All this week, we have been taking a look at the five nominees for the bbc womens footballer of the year award, and our profile today is of the Manchester United and england goalkeeper mary earps, who was part of Sarina Wiegmans side that made it all the way to the World Cup Final. Iam i am privileged to have so many standout moments. Obviously World Cup Finalist, winning the fifa best, fa cup final as well and on the ballon dor shortlist which is obvious they just ballon dor shortlist which is obvious theyjust incredible. We have just kind of always accepted that strikers are at the forefront of things and whenever i have gone and visited clubs or gone round and on local things, the managers have always elbowed me and said, can you convince one of the girls to be in goal this weekend . It is not a position that is sought after because may be of the criticism it gets or it is not really on billboards. Ifeel gets or it is not really on billboards. I feel really strongly about challenging that narrative, goal keeping his cool and it is such a High Pressure position, high stakes. Everything you dream of as a kid is representing your country and playing at the highest level, playing at the highest level, playing in the big games, the High Pressure moments. To play in World Cup Final is really special. The result definitely was not what we set out to and i guess it can overshadow the journey and the feeling and everything feeling of everything to get there. We were beaten by the better side may be in that game, but itjust gives you even more fire and makes me want to continue to achieve more. And winning the goalkeeper of the tournament after that game, i dont feel it felt as special in the moment is what it was. Try and pause that disappointment for a moment and hold the trophy in the air. But difficult as an Elite Sports Person who desperately wants to win every trophy imaginable.

To be in a position where i feel it really changed the world in this area and i think that it is fantastic for all young goalkeepers, i know it means a lot to so many people. I was advised to kind of go on it because it might suit my personality a bit more, i am not a poser, i think football is seen as robots and just the media trained cliche dances all the time. We do have big personalities and we arejust normal we do have big personalities and we are just normal people. Manchester united and englands mary earps, the second of our nominees.

More wet weather here today and therell be higher Rainfall Totals to come as we head through the next few days yet again. So not a lot set to change for the rest of the month. It stays unsettled across the uk, with more heavy showers to come and also some longer spells of rain, too. And if we just take a look at the Rainfall Accumulation Chart over the next few days, you can see those bright colours starting to emerge again in Eastern Scotland. Parts of the Higher Ground could see as much as 50 100 millimetres of rain. Its falling on saturated ground. Could cause some more problems, maybe. Why is it happening . Well, low pressure is out towards the west, which is where its going to stay. More showers spiralling around it. A Southeasterly Wind, brisk towards the east coast of scotland, just driving those showers further onshore. And then overnight tonight, there will be some clear spells developing, i think further south for england and wales, some mist, some low cloud possibly forming, showers out towards the west. So not completely dry. And temperatures to start the day will be on the mild side, certainly frost free, 6 10 celsius. And then into friday, again, nothing much changes. The low pressure still out towards the west, the showers spiral around it. Weve still got that brisk Southeasterly Wind for Eastern Scotland, acting as a sort of conveyor belt, just a constant stream of showers. A lot of the rain will tend to be quite light and patchy, but itll be pretty relentless, i think, as we head through the day, and the Rainfall Totals will start to rack up once again. Further south, there will be a lot of dry weather, some sunny intervals, but also some heavy, possibly thundery showers, maybe a flash or two of lightning. Temperatures once again peaking between 10 15 celsius a little above the average towards the south. And then on saturday, well, its more of the same. Well still see these showers across Eastern Scotland driving a little further westwards perhaps, the wind picking up towards the south coast of england. By the end of the day, expect to see some heavy, persistent outbreaks of rain. By the time we get to the end of the afternoon here, there are localised Weather Warnings in force, and that rain is going to be pushing further northwards. As we head through Saturday Night and into sunday. Again, falling on saturated ground in some places. Still some uncertainty on the timing low pressure still with us into next week, staying unsettled. Bye bye. Thanks. Live from london. This is bbc news. The hamas .
