Set their opponents 400 to win. And australias bowlers followed their batting example. Adam zampa the pick of them, finishing with four wickets as the netherlands were bowled out forjust 90 losing by a record 309 runs. I love the fastest 50, fastest 100 records. I think they are pretty cool records and sometimes, to the detriment of myself, ive always probably push the barriers a bit too much. Ive been in this positions before where i can make vast hundreds, and when i get on a run, i am difficult to bowl two. It isjust about getting past the first ball.

The fallout from a tense meeting of the Un Security Council has continued today. Secretary general Antonio Guterres said he was shocked at israels furious reaction to comments he made yesterday. Antonio guterres had said the hamas attacks in southern israel had not happened � in a vacuum, but that there was no justification for the hamas attacks. Heres what he said earlier today, as he defended those comments. I am shocked by the misrepresentations by some of my statement yesterday in the Security Council, as if. As if i was justifying Acts Of Terror by hamas. This is false. It was the opposite. In the beginning of my intervention yesterday, i clearly stated, and i quote, i have condemned unequivocally the horrifying and unprecedented seven 0ctober Acts Of Terror by hamas in israel. Nothing can justify the deliberate killing, injuring and kidnapping of civilians or the launching of rockets against civilian targets. Indeed, i spoke of the grievances of the Palestinian People, and in doing so, i also clearly stated and i quote, but the grievances of the Palestinian People cannot justify the appalling attacks by hamas. And then i went on with my intervention, referring all my positions on all aspects of The Middle East crisis. I believe it was necessary to set the record straight, especially out of respect to the victims and to theirfamilies. Thank you. Despite guterres� clarification today, israel has reiterated its demand that he resigns as Secretary General. Israel is also withholding visas from United Nations officials. So clearly tensions are still high. Lets ta ke lets take you live to new york where the Security Council is ready to come back into session. The council will be voting come back into session. The council will be voting on come back into session. The council will be voting on proposals come back into session. The council will be voting on proposals by come back into session. The council will be voting on proposals by the l will be voting on proposals by the United States and russia for action on hamas in the gaza strip. Live now to our correspondent in new york, nada tawfik. First of all, just tell us about these two rival proposals, one from these two rival proposals, one from the us and one from russia, and what they are aiming to do. Yes. The us and one from russia, and what they are aiming to do. They are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important they are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important to they are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important to keep they are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important to keep in they are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important to keep in mind they are aiming to do. Yes, i think it is important to keep in mind we | it is important to keep in mind we have already had two failed resolutions of the council. 0ne proposed by russia, that called for a ceasefire that didnt get enough support, and then won by brazil that called for humanitarian pauses and condemned the attacks by hamas which the United States to be towed, so we are now here again with the Security Council again attempting to get our product through. United states put forward their own draft that they feel is more comprehensive. They say that it needed to include a right to israels self defence. Some members took issue with the direct naming of israel and iran took issue with the direct naming of Israeland Iran in took issue with the direct naming of israel and iran in the us� s first draft, so they have negotiated wording that talks about countries rights to self defence in general. However, russia has said they will not support that draft and they have put forward their own competing draft resolution, again insisting on a ceasefire, saying that is what the un and the palestinians themselves have called for, for a ceasefire, so it looks like we are going to again have deadlock in the Un Security Council, and i can tell you already, speaking to members as they went in, the ten elected members of the council are already two planning to put forward their own resolution if we do have two failed boats today. What can the Security Council do thenif what can the Security Council do then if there is no agreement . Trier . Then if there is no agreement . Very little. Then if there is no agreement . Very little two then if there is no agreement . Very little. Two failed then if there is no agreement . Very little. Two failed votes. Then if there is no agreement . Little. Two failed votes. We have not had so much as a statement coming from the Security Council. Speaking to members, they say the world is expecting them. They understand the world is expecting the Security Council to shoulder its responsibility. Take a look at what the uae� s ambassador told me. She said there has been a resounding call from the International Community based on yesterdays debate, that the Security Council does need to step up and fulfil its responsibility forcibly and is on the ground. She says, she hopes the consultations today which have just concluded will help bring about some kind of compromise. So, we will see what happens with the ten, the elected members draft, if they are able to reach some kind of compromise, but at the moment, as i say, the Security Council is unable to move forward. Say, the Security Council is unable to move forward. Since we have you there, i to move forward. Since we have you there. I would to move forward. Since we have you there, i would also to move forward. Since we have you there, i would also like to move forward. Since we have you there, i would also like to to move forward.

Even the comments yesterday. It the moment. Even the comments esterda. , the moment. Even the comments esterda. , yesterday. It was a quite tense day esterda , yesterday. It was a quite tense day yesterday. And yesterday. It was a quite tense day yesterday, and that yesterday. It was a quite tense day yesterday, and that has yesterday. It was a quite tense day yesterday, and that has continued | yesterday, and that has continued today. We had the Secretary General saying there that he wanted to set the record straight, out of respect to the victims and their families, because in fact, he was meeting with families of the hostages yesterday here at the United Nations. But he did not hold back, saying that he was shocked by the misrepresentation of his comments, because he has been clear from the get go that he condemned hamass attacks, and do what he speaks about the grievances of the Palestinian People, that does notjustify of the Palestinian People, that does not justify the attack, of the Palestinian People, that does notjustify the attack, and he says that his speech was addressing every aspect of the conflict. But we have heard from israels ambassador to the un, and he didnt accept that, and he is still again calling for the Secretary General to resign, to retract his words. He is accusing the un, as israel has done in the past, or bias towards its country. Nada tawfik, our correspondent at the un. Forthe nada tawfik, our correspondent at the un. For the moment, thank you very much. Well, to discuss this further, im joined by nomi bar yaacov, who has worked in the Executive Office of the un Secretary General, and has extensive experience in the region. She was also a journalist who covered israel palestinian tensions. Shes now an associate fellow at the International Security programme at chatham house. Thanks very much forjoining us here. As someone who has experience of working at the United Nations, and just listening to what our correspondent at the un said, how useful a body is the Security Council right and out it when comes to resolving this ongoing situation . I think the Security Council is quite a dated body, the five permanent members of the Security Council with the five States Holding Nuclear Arsenals in 1945, at the end of the second world war. There has been much discussion of reform of the Security Council, but it hasnt happened yet, and as we can see, they are constantly at loggerheads, given that the five permanent members of the Security Council have veto power, it is unlikely they will be able to reach any resolution that will end the war. I be able to reach any resolution that will end the war. Will end the war. I think we are bein will end the war. I think we are being told will end the war. I think we are being told that will end the war. I think we are being told that russia will end the war. I think we are being told that russia has will end the war. I think we are being told that russia hasjust| being told that russia has just taken to the floor. I think we are hearing, as you can see, on the screen, if you are watching, the United States now delivering some remarks. But naomi, two different proposals from russia and from the us, both unlikely. Lets see though of course, to be passed on. So, then What Happens Next . I of course, to be passed on. So, then What Happens Next . What happens next . I think the Security Council What Happens Next . I think the Security Council is What Happens Next . I think the Security Council is not What Happens Next . I think the Security Council is not able What Happens Next . I think the Security Council is not able to l What Happens Next . I think the. Security council is not able to pass any resolution on the Israeli Palestinian conflict. I think that has been the case for a very long time, and you asked about the efficiency of the teeth that Security Council has, and unfortunately, i dont think that the Security Council is going to be able to do much in this particular incident. Let able to do much in this particular incident. ,~ able to do much in this particular incident. ,. , able to do much in this particular incident. ,. , incident. Let me ask you about the tensions that incident. Let me ask you about the tensions that continue incident. Let me ask you about the tensions that continue at incident.

What you make of that, someone who has worked in the Secretary General� s office . I worked in the secretary Generals Office . ~. ,. , , worked in the secretary Generals Office . ~. , , office .

I think it was a rubber poor choice of words on the part of the | choice of words on the part of the United Nations Secretary General to say that the hamas massacres committed on the 7th Of October didnt happen in a vacuum. A rather poor choice. It is not really the right time to discuss. It was seen as justified, the right time to discuss. It was seen asjustified, it the right time to discuss. It was seen as justified, it was seen by the majority of israelis as justification for the hamas attacks, even though he had condemned them very, very seriously, nevertheless, the fact that he appeared to blame israel for them didnt go down very well in israel. Even the chair, the Director General of the Israeli Holocaust museum came out and said that all the State Leaders who vowed never again, as in never again will they be a holocaust, it is a test. The test is whether they look for justification or not, and it was viewed, Antonio Guterress comments were viewed as if he was justifying the attack. He clearly didnt need to justify it, the attack. He clearly didnt need tojustify it, but the attack. He clearly didnt need to justify it, but that was the way that it was interpreted. fiifi to justify it, but that was the way that it was interpreted. 0k, thank ou.
