A devastating second wave of coronavirus has seen indian hospitals overwhelmed and widespread shortages of oxygen and medicines. There were 320,000 new infections recorded there today, and deaths are now close to 200,000 in total. For now, however, cricket continues. Like Todays Ipl Match between Delhi Capitals and royal challengers bangalore. For some its a welcome distraction in a bio secure bubble and keeps people watching indoors for others. Its simply unthinkable that its still being played. Despite the indian Cricket Board saying the ipl will keep going, several players have pulled out including australian Cricketer Andrew Tye who decided to leave the Rajasthan Royals on sunday and Return Home because of the impact Covid I9 is having. Hes been speaking to alison mitchell. Iv e ive seen going forward. Not far from finishing now. Probably close to halfway. But yeah, youve seen with pakistan Super League because of covid affecting the players. A lot of players were getting covid. But where is that hasnt happened in the ipl yet so theyre probably holding onto that fact. None of the players have got covid yet. Since i entered the bowler since they been in the bubble. Her coming into the bubble. Maybe they are just holding onto that fact that they still feel its a safe environment for the players. Its just down to the fact that the aussies are stuck there until the 15th and its a fact of whether or not they can play safely. And possibly get it on with at this stage. Is this making you look at your career cricket, travel and thinking, how will the next six months pan out . At least from the Sailing Programme much longer Uncertainty Travel across the world will continue. Uncertainty travel across the world willcontinue. f. �. , will continue. Yeah, 100 .

I went to the ipl into by and we hosted india for the indian summer hero. And then i was lucky enough to go to New Zealand and play for the aussie turn. So there is hope that we can still continue to do ourjobs and travel around the world. Andrew tye speaking to ali mitchell.

Theyll start again at seven oclock live coverage across the bbc. With just two months to go until the start of wimbledon, the all England Club has been laying out its plans for this years championships. It was the only Grand Slam last year to be cancelled because of the pandemic this year organisers say theyre hoping to allow at least Ten Thousand spectators each day. Weve also been told that from next Year Therell be no traditional Rest Day on the middle sunday. Ive been speaking to our Tennis Correspondent Russell fuller, who started by telling me about this summers plans for a crowd. We have a minimum figure in that there will be at least 25 of the spectators inside the all even club come the end ofjune. All being well. But the hope from The Club is that that number will be able to increase with everybody is waiting for Government Guidelines to be updated. Particularfor for Government Guidelines to be updated. Particular for results to command from series of Test Events that are going ahead with the uk with fans inside the stadium to the next few weeks. That will determine just how big the capacity for wimbledon can be. But youll start to feel a little bit more like a Grand Slam for the Ticket Prices will be frozen. There may be a chance for fans to sit On The Hill which is always such a Focal Point of the championship. Even if social distancing is still in place that may be possible. But all these decisions including Prize Money are going to be taken as light delete might late as possible and that is the early part ofjune. Might late as possible and that is the early part ofjune. The early part ofjune. Since last ears the early part ofjune. Since last years championships the early part ofjune. Since last years championships were the early part ofjune. Since last years championships were cancelled we seen the other three Grand Slams held, what Will Wimbledon have learned from them . Held, what Will Wimbledon have learned from them . Everybody is doinu learned from them . Everybody is doin it learned from them . Everybody is doing it slightly learned from them . Everybody is doing it slightly differently. Learned from them . Everybody is doing it slightly differently. At. Doing it slightly differently. At the Australian Open in melbourne players had to quarantine for two weeks. Some werent allowed outside their rooms because they didnt come into contact with people with covid on the flights into the country. Others were allowed out to practice for a couple of hours a day. As her wimbledon, players are not going to enjoy the fact they have to stay in the official hotels as opposed to private housing for them if your local player you cant live at home. You have to stay in the official hotel. That is part of the deal that has been struck with the government. So as a condition of allowing players and their entourage in from all over the world, stricter rules have to be enforced. I think it will be quite frustrating and difficult for the players have spent so much time in the bubble over the last few months. To be in their rooms and perhaps be looking out at some of the nice Wide Open Spaces of london and people going about their business, enjoying themselves on the streets below their hotel room. If they will be in fantastically nice hotels but i think it will be tough mentally very draining for the players to have to be behind glass in that way once again. Its players to have to be behind glass in that way once again. In that way once again. Its going to feel different in that way once again. Its going to feel different this in that way once again. Its going to feel different this year in that way once again. Its going to feel different this year as in that way once again. Its going to feel different this year as we | to feel different this year as we know. It can feel different next year. We heard that middle sunday, the traditional Rest Day is now gone.

I suppose it was. But i have to say, | i suppose it was. But i have to say, this came as a surprise. Right now everybody was concerned about the number of people that would be allowed inside the championships. And social distancing rules. This was the rabbit that the England Club let out of the hat. Its also improvement and Grass Court technology. In the past the Grass Court needed a rest on the middle sunday. Thats predominantly why there been no play on that day. It has meant that weve had this manic monday. Which i think is love by Fans Alarm to eight around the world. All the 16 matches in the mens and women are played on the same day. Because the disadvantage of that is that you miss a lot of the action because there are no Night Sessions at wimbledon and that its all over in the space of seven or eight hours. Certainly the Chief Executive of The Club thinks that ultimately this change, the championships becoming a 14 Day Event will be for the better of everybody. Event will be for the better of Everybody Event will be for the better of everybody. Event will be for the better of eve bod. ,. ,. ,. , everybody.

The bench for a Recount And Dread that of course kicks off against chelsea at eight oclock. Thats the eight Oclock Kick off. Seven oclock for five live coverage. Just time to bring you this as well. And finally leicester City Defender Wesley fofana has thanked the premier league, Crystal Palace and Keeper Vicente Guaita for allowing him to break his ramadan fast during their game last night. Like millions of muslims observing the month of ramadan, fofanas abstaining from Food And Drink in daylight hours. And the Opposition Keeper Guaita waited to take a Goal Kickjust after the half Hour Mark which allowed fofana to break his fast and take on some liquids on the touchline before returning to play. The short delay for when there was a natural break in play was agreed in the captains meeting prior to the Game And Fofana tweeted afterwards thats what makes football wonderful. He was no doubt equally happy to see Leicester Win that game 2 1 in the end. Theyre looking good to be in the Champions League next season which is where chelsea are playing tonight against real madrid. We will keep you updated on the Bbc News Channel. That is all for now. Good night. Good evening. Theres been a lot of dry weather around this april, and at times some sunshine, but the real Weather Feature has certainly been the frost. April 2021 is going to be the frostiest for over 60 years. In fact, there has been an Air Frost somewhere every night so far this month. Will that change . Potentially, yes, because weve seen some rain in the forecast today. This was york earlier on this afternoon. And if we take a look at the Satellite Picture and the Rain Radar combined, you can see how extensive that cloud has been and how widespread the showers have been, pushing in on a stiff easterly breeze. The exception with the sunshine down into the far southeast, but as we go through the evening and overnight, the cloud and the showers will drift their way steadily south and west was not thats going to prevent temperatures from falling too far. We might see low single figures under some Clearing Skies in scotland, but you can see a relatively mild night in comparison to the month so far. So this Weather Front still with us to start off wednesday. Quite a lot of cloud around, some showery outbreaks of rain. Some of those showers potentially merging together for some longer spells of rain at times, maybe some hail, even the Odd Rumble of thunder next in there as well. Certainly more cloud around. Further north, we will have some sunshine through northern england, scotland and northern ireland, with a few slow moving isolated showers here, but temperatures really subdued 8 11; degrees at the very best in the far southeast corner. And even that milder air will quickly be pushed out of the way, as the low pressure drifts away, allows that North Or North easterly flow to drag colder air once again right across the country. So on thursday, early Morning Cloud and rain, leaving that kent coast to sunny spells for many and a scattering of showers once again, some of these heavy with some hail, maybe even a little bit of snow to higher ground as those temperatures are set to struggle six to iii degrees the high by thursday. And it looks likely that the further east you are, the cooler the Weather Story continues into friday and saturday, with a few scattered showers slowly easing. Further west, there will be a little more in the way of sunshine, lighter winds and a little more warmth as a consequence. But its worth bearing in mind, with Clear Skies by day, frosts at night. Hello, im ros atkins, welcome to outside source of couplet minutes early, because were going to go straight to president biden who is making a statement about covid regulations. If making a statement about covid regulations regulations. If youre fully vaccinated regulations. If youre fully vaccinated and regulations. If youre fully vaccinated and you regulations. If youre fully vaccinated and you are. Regulations. If youre fully vaccinated and you are outdoors, regulations. If youre fully vaccinated and you are outdoors, you need, and not in a big crowd, you no longer need to wear a mask. I want to be absolutely clear. If youre in a crowd, like a stadium or any concert, you still need to wear a mask. Even if you are outside. But beginning today, gatherings of with a group of friends in a park, going for a picnic as long as you are vaccinated and outdoors, you can do it without a mask. The cdc is able to make this announcement because our scientists are convinced by the data that the odds of getting or giving the virus to others is very, very low if you are both fully vaccinated and out in the open air. The cdc also have clarified which outdoor activities are safer. Or less safe. Depending on whether you have been vaccinated. The Bottom Line is clear. If you are vaccinated, you can do more things, more safely, both outdoors as well as indoors. So for those who have not got the vaccination yet, especially if youre younger, or thinking you dont need it, this is another great reason to go get vaccinated, now. Now. Yes, the vaccines are about saving your life, but also the lives of the people around you, but theyre also about helping to get us back to
