But extra of calamitous catching and brilliant batting giving england some hope. Going on to make history herself, becoming the first english women to score three figures in a t20.

The first test starts on thursday. England do hold the ashes but the last time they were in australia, almost four years ago, they lost 5 0. They are certianly a weaker side without stokes. It has been a while since the incident. Those weeks after it, everybody was talking about it and it was not great. Everybody really accepted that ben would not be here. If theres a bonus of him making the trip. Great. But honestly it has not been spoken about that in the changing room.

Donald trump will later speak with the russian president on the issue of syria after Vladimir Putin said the defeat of the Terror Group Islamic state there is close. The russian president was speaking in sochi, where he met syrias president assad, who was on an unannounced visit. Mr putin said he wanted to hear the syrian leaders views on the Peace Process. Speaking on russian television, president putin said he intended to talk with the american president and cou nterpa rts talk with the american president and counterparts from qatar. Earlier, our moscow correspondent, sarah rainsford, explained just how important this unannounced meeting was. It is certainly extremely significant. Even the symbolism is important. This was president putin welcoming al assad for the first time in two years. Essentially declaring an almost end to military operations in syria. He said the defeat of these terrorist groups was close and inevitable. Both he and al assad went to meet military leaders, Russian Military leaders, and congratulate them. Both of them said it was absolutely pivotal. Talking about the Russian Military having maintained syrias territorial integrity. Putin said the Russian Military had seized the syrian state. And the message from these two leaders, it is time to push forward with Political Solutions for syria. Just by the fact those men were standing side by side in russia, saying that, that suggest that al assad sees himself as part of the political future going forward. Extremely complex negotiation already under way. I think the idea is that would now accelerate. It is the first time in two years putin has welcomed al assad to russia. What can we read into the timing . The conflict in syria, but also the domestic agenda. On that note, it is almost the beginning of the Election Campaign in russia for the president ial election in three months. Putin expected to run. To be able to announce essentially russian victory in syria is an important plank. It is also part of the russian grandstanding, pushing itself as a global peacemaker, pivotalfigure in terms of the middle east but broadly syria. In terms of the Peace Process an important meeting tomorrow when putin hosts both the turkish and iranian leaders. Going to be discussing syria. Going to be meeting those countries that opposed each other. Going with the message from al assad, after three hours of meeting al assad, and putin positioning himself as the man who can bring everybody together and get political future for syria.

The government always make great play of cutting down on public borrowing, what is causing this figure to go up . Although the economy has been growing, it has not been growing anything as fast as had been growing anything as fast as had been anticipated. No doubt that some of the revenue had been affected.

And corporations have actually done reasonably well and a number of areas. We should notjust looked at the one month. Overall, he is borrowing less than he had anticipated would be the case. Overall, things have not been as bad in terms of collecting tax revenue, as he had perhaps anticipated. Does he have more room to manoeuvre than the figures last month suggested . think he does.

If that is the case, pounds, he could be able to say it is falling as early as next year and i could use the flexibility to borrow some i could use the flexibility to boiiow some more i could use the flexibility to borrow some more and spend on their ears that matter such as infrastructure and housing.
