welcome to sportsday. coming up on the programme... the australian open is under way in melbourne, but the men's british number one, cameron norrie, is dumped out in the first round. the action is under way, but the world number one is back in serbia. novak djokovic's visa draws to a close. could a return to everton be on the cards for roberto martinez? after sacking rafa benitez, the club have approached the belgian fa. also coming up in the programme, what next for england's test team after another humiliation in the ashes in australia? and as organisers confirm there will be no winter olympics tickets on sale to the public in china, we get the thoughts of one of the best chances at a medal. hello and you're very welcome along to sportsday. the australian open is finally under way after a build—up like no other. we'll be in belgrade shortly with novak djokovic landing back in serbia — but on court in melbourne, it wasn't a good start for british hopes. cameron norrie was knocked out in the first round. the british men's number one, who was seeded 12th, lost in straight sets to american rising star sebastian korda. norrie looked a shadow of the player who enjoyed a steady rise up the rankings in 2021. he lost in straight sets. joe wilson reports. time to focus on who's actually playing in melbourne. albeit in the case of cameron norrie, all too briefly. the top—ranked british man is at the top of the picture. sebastian korda was playing having tested positive for covid, on his arrival in australia.— arrival in australia. simply brilliant. _ arrival in

straightforward wins for most of the big names. naomi osaka sailed through. there was also a first round win for rafael nadal. drew savage wraps up the best of the rest. pleased to be back in melbourne. naomi osaka says she's got a little unfinished pistons. —— business. she took first set against camila osorio, the world number 50, 6—3. the second set and the match soon followed. job done. osaka is seeded 13th this year after last yea r�*s struggles with her mental health, but seems to be enjoying defending her title so far. i'm not sure if it's the heat. i really like hot conditions, but i just also feel like whenever i come here, everyone's so warm and welcoming. i'm sure that has... i guess you can clap for yourself. cheering ash barty swept aside lesia tsurenko 6—0,

title. drew savage, bbc news. well, as we know, the tournament got under way without the men's world's number one. novak djokovic was deported from australia after losing a visa battle that centred on the fact he is unvaccinated. so, what did the fans in melbourne think about djokovic's absence? it's unfortunate that he had his visa cancel for what i don't think is appropriate, but he probably

deported. he arrived back in belgrade after changing flights in dubai. he's been getting a much warmer reception in his home country. this is a big shame for australia, for their people, for their politicians. i think they should all be ashamed of themselves, and i think novak will rise from this like a phoenix. he will be greater than ever. they don't know what they did to him. let's go live to belgrade now and speak to the bbc�*s sport editor, dan roan, who's there for us. dan, give us a sense of firstly of what it's been like today and what exactly has happened at. evening, sarah. well,

fans who were waiting for him at the airport. he landed on a flight from dubai and used a diplomatic lane to get through the airport. he was picked up through the airport. he was picked up by through the airport. he was picked up by his brother, and he is now keeping a low profile. we think in his luxury apartment here in the city centre. he issued a brief statement after losing that legal battle against the australian government, which ensured that he would be deported, saying he was disappointed and regretted the fact that so much focus and attention has shifted onto him and away from the tournament. i think he will try and maintain some silence in the next few days. certainly, there's no prospect of any kind of reception or orchestrated event. politicians expressed their outrage, same with members of his family. and he retains the support, he really is a national hero and his popularity is unwavering here despite the controversy of this 12 day legal saga. but it will take some recovering from, as it must�*ve taken a lot out of him. i think he will try now tojust a lot out of him. i think he will try now to just recover, and then see if he can prepare for his next tournament, wherever that will be. that's the interesting question. where attentions will likely turn. we know the french open may well have some very strict rules around vaccinations. have some very

second time. it would require all athletes to be vaccinated if they want to compete in public arenas, and even though this incredible saga, one of the most dramatic stories that tennis has seen, one that sparks global debates about vaccination policy, appears to be over for now. there are real signs that there could be more issues, more trouble for novak djokovic because of his stance going forward, including in the second major tournament of the year. dan roan, major tournament of the year. dan roan. live — major tournament of the year. dan roan. live in _ major tournament of the year. dan roan, live in belgrade, thank you for your time. football now, everton are interested in belgium manager roberto martinez returning to the club and have made initial contact with the belgian football association. belgium are reluctant to lose the spaniard, a8, with the world cup in qatar in november and believe they will retain his services. patrick gearey have delayed us. the writing was on the balance. the defeat node norwich was ever ten�*s night loss, and at the end of a strange chapter in their history. rafa bonita has admitted he had missed duds the past, and part of that was rooted in history. this is liverpool's minister for six years, so will be uphill from the start as ever ten boss —— liverpool manager. they now sits 16th in the table. the public have just sold luca

league game at home to watford because of a high number of injuries and covid—i9 cases in the squad. the fixture was originally due to be played in december but was called off because of an outbreak at watford. if it's postponed, it will be the 22nd top flight game to be rescheduled because of the pandemic, which has caused a lot of talk about how football can continue in this way. i think it's very difficult for the premier league. they keep referring back to the fact that clubs need 13 players plus a goalkeeper, and then they should play the games. then people start talking about injuries in addition to covid, and also, international calls. one of the issues the premier league are wrestling with which managers have raised is because players are out with covid, that was an increased responsibility almost on the players who are fit. they have to play more games and are at risk of injury, so that comes into the equation. the premier league also say that for all the games that have been called off, there are a similar number who don't get called off, and it's about whether you fit the criteria or not. we've clearly been in a situation in some point in this season where lots of teams have got lots of games to play with no obvious place where to go. simon stone, and there is more on that story on the football news show available to watch right now. it was all eyes on group a at the africa cup of nations today, with qualification on offer for the knockout stages. cameroon were hoping to finish with a 100% record. they took a first half lead against cape verde thanks to vincent abouba kar. but they had to settle for a draw after garry rodrigues equalised. it was enough for cameroon to win the group though. burkina faso will face the group c runners—up. after they finished second. thanks to a 1—1 draw. ethiopians equaliser secure their only point of the tournament as they finished the bottom of group a. let's have a quick look at some of the other stories making the news today. former tottenham midfielder christian eriksen could return to the premier league, with brentford interested in signing him. eriksen had to leave inter milan because serie a don't allow players to play if they've got implanted defibrillators like the one he has after his cardiac arrest at euro 2020. full crowds return to outdoor sporting events in scotland today after covid restrictions limiting numbers to 500 people were eased. and the scottish premiership returns this evening with celtic hosting hibs, celtic six points behind leaders rangers. three—time paralympic three—time pa ralympic medallist continued three—time paralympic medallist continued her preparations for march's beijing games. she won the super combined visually impaired title. after another humiliating defeat, england's ashes tour is finally over. they lost inside three days in the final test in tasmania to leave the country on the wrong end of a a—nil scoreline. the result will no doubt leave much soul searching among the players, but also real concern among those who run english cricket about the deterioration of england's test side. here are the thoughts of their head coach, chris silverwood. we need to somehow find a way of gaining championship throughout the year, so back when i was playing, all the way through the end, during the middle of the summer the wickets flatten out. somehow, we have to make it out. i think by me speaking out about it, hopefully it will get us around the table. and find a way, find a plan of fitting this into the schedule. give these guys a platform to learn the trade and become better at building a new partnership. we need a platform for them to do that, and i think that's one of the changes that we need to sit down and talk about — how do we get that into county cricket? giving them an opportunity. you can question whether or not these guys have an opportunity within the domestic game. to learn the skills they need to comprehend this level. i would hope the counties want to do that, and secondly, something that needs to be discussed and discussed harder about what other solutions... i've got no particular one right now, but i think it's something that we have to sit down and have a real robust conversation about and find a way. interesting to hear. well, i'm delighted to say that we can speak to the former england coach, paul farbrace, now. paul, such a disappointing tour for england and interesting to hear chris silverwood say that first class cricket needs to be played more extensively and through the middle of the summer. a lot of interest in the county structure and whether it's working or not. what are your thoughts on that? , .,, ., ., ., that? every time we lose a ma'or series, that? every

that? every time we lose a major i series, we have massive inquests in the game in england. very often, county cricket is the butter of all the issues. and i don't believe that county cricket is the only issue. i think there's a lot of issues he's sorting out. i think county cricket has produced a lot of good players over many, many years. i don't think the pictures are as bad as everyone talks about. it's not ideal, and the two areas we're very short in in this country and in terms of producing our spin bowlers and opening batters. they're the stuff is —— the toughest. there is some merit. i think we do need to look at the game as a whole, and i think we're all responsible for the good of the england test team because we want england to play well. we want england to compete and we want england to compete and we want england to compete and we want england to win the ashes back and when test matches.— england to win the ashes back and when test matches. looking at the issues, when

and i count myself, i think we need to look at ourselves as a group of coaches. i think we've got quite lazy in our coaching, and i believe we've made it very easy to play to perform with techniques aren't good enough. that's a huge part of it. i'm not pointing a finger at the england coaching team and saying they're lazy, but there's a lot of players having improved in a numbers of games. that's quite disappointing. i was involved as assistant coach when we lost in australia, and everything we said then, having lost that series 4—0, saying exactly the same now. we're not learning as a team, as a country, as a nation. we aren't learning our lessons because we can't keep saying the same things every four years. that is just madness. so, there's a lot of things we need to address. i think coaching is one of them and i think we need to start getting good basic techniques into our young players from an early age, giving them the best chance. let's not point the finger at county cricket, let's look at it and a lot of other things that need to improve.— need to improve. paul, i really appreciate your _ need to improve. paul, i really appreciate your time _ need to improve. paul, i

general public as part of strict covid—19 restrictions. we already knew there would be no international spectators and tickets will now be given to invited groups only. curling is always one of the big medal hopes for team gb, and this games will be no different. eve muirhead won bronze in sochi, and a short while ago, she told me how the preparations have gone for her and the team. we were lucky enough to get the chance to play the european championships a few months back, and we actually came out on top. i was pretty nervous going into that event because, just like you say, we didn't know where we sat with other countries. but i think we proved we were capable of beating all the best teams in the world, and we had the olympic qualifier a few weeks later. we also came up on top there. so i think we are sitting at a good place in comparison to other countries, but it's the olympic games, and that a week at that anything can really happen. but it's very, very high confidence

excitement. i wonder how important it is, the funding you receive, in order to compete at the very top. the funding we receive let's us compete, and the national lottery and the government have put in about 32 million into winter sports. this cycle in beijing for the olympics and paralympic games. without that funding, we definitely wouldn't be in a position we are in today. it allows us to chase our dreams, it allows us to chase our dreams, it allows us to go to beijing and really be in the top platform, so it helps us so much. huge thank you to national lottery. latte helps us so much. huge

might be nice without too much noise. we'vejust got to deal with what ever situations are thrown at us. ease situations are thrown at us. eve muirhead there. _ we will have all the turns from the winter olympics. they get under way in about three weeks. a reminder of our top story — cameron norrie is out of the australian open in the opening round, and a little bit later tonight, andy murray and mri do condo will be an action. that's all from sportsday. have a lovely evening. —— emma raducanu. good evening. it's been a classic january winter day today. we started off cold, foggy and frosty in many places. but there was some beautiful blue sky and sunshine notjust in west berkshire, fairly widespread across the country. we did have a little bit of fair weather cloud, but elsewhere, it was all about the sunshine. some sparkling blue skies out there. all courtesy of this area of high pressure, and it will stay with us for the next few days. bit more of a breeze, a weather front knocking on the door. with those clear skies continuing, the fog is set to reform across central and eastern england and we're likely to see those temperatures falling away quite sharply here in towns and city centres. maybe as low as minus five degrees. that brings with it an issue with fog, some of it dance. that is worth area in mind —— dense. in one or two places, the fog could linger, and those temperatures could be a bit subdued. a south—westerly flow will drive in more cloud out to the west, and we will see outbreaks of rain into western scotland and northern ireland. those weather fronts will continue to push their way steadily south and east, so as we move into wednesday, we will see a change of fortunes for england and wales. some showery outbreaks of rain drifting their way southwards, a northerly wind kicks in behind, cleaner, clearerair. more sunshine, but some of those showers could be increasingly wintry. a colder day in scotland as we go through the afternoon. out of wednesday into thursday, still high pressure dominating the story, but standing out on the atlantic. that means that cold northerly flow through the north sea will be more of a feature, so it is going to be a cold start to thursday morning. widespread cold across the country, potentially on thursday. and we keep that keen wind driving in more cloud, making it feel quite raw. some sunshine further inland, a little bit more moisture out to the west. the temperatures may well struggle on the east coast, it or 5 degrees at the east coast, it or 5 degrees at the best. take care. hello, i'm ros atkins, this is outside source. a huge ash cloud has engulfed after saturday's volcanic eruption and tsunami. the volcano erupted underwater, satellite images suggest some areas
