It could be raining cats and dogs later this week, but today the best over the weather is across the eastern side of the uk, in the sunshine. The southerly wind is pushing the warmer air further north, so it is a warmer day today in the midlands and Northern England. And parts of scotland, where we could reach 16 or 17 degrees. Cooler out to the west once again. Yeah, we are continuing to see more in the way of cloud, bringing further outbreaks of rain, particularly across wales on the south west of england. We may get some sunshine after the rain in northern ireland. Still some rain for western scotland. The chance of one or two light showers in the west of england. After dark, things will change, because the rain eases away from Western Areas and we see outbreaks of Rain Pushing Northwards across Eastern Parts of england. Mist and fog four eastern areas of scotland. Quite a mild night tonight, if anything, temperatures in the south east will be higher than last night. We do have some rain to start with in North East England, that will push into Eastern Scotland for a while, where we still have mist and low cloud. For western scotland, a brighter day, with one or two ago showers. A few showers developing in the midlands, rain moving into southern parts of being led later in the day. For Western Areas of the uk, likely to be warmer than today, particularly so for North West England and western scotland. Eastern scotland and North East England could be a little bit cooler.

To the south we could see further rain developing, which could turn heavy and sundry. To the north of the rain, North West England, North Midlands and east anglia, quite warm and we could reach 20 degrees and Western Areas of scotland. Cooler weather continuing in scotland, a few showers here. More rain across england and wales, may be moving further north and allowing sunshine in the south. Thunderstorms and Northern England will drop the temperature is. But we could reach 20 degrees in western scotland. Thats it. Now, lets join our colleagues for the news where you are. Hello and welcome to sportsday im jane dougall. It might be a Gamble Butjofra Archer has been recalled to the england squad despite not having played competitively for almost a year. No english teams, but two of englands best will face each other in the Champions League later tonight. And, Water Sportsjoin together to call for rivers, lakes and coasts to be cleaned up in the uk. Welcome to the programme. Hes been frustrated with injuries for the last three years, and its been almost 12 months since he last played a competitive match, butjofra archer has been recalled to the england squad for the defence of their T20 World Cup title in june. Hes one of several surprises in the provisional squad, with fellow fast bowler chris jordan also recalled, but chris woakes misses out. Archer missed all of last summer after a recurrence of the Stress Fracture in his elbow. There is a four match t20 series against pakistan which begins at headingley next month and its believed archer will try to prove his fitness during that series before he is considered for england in barbados, the country of his birth. Earlier i spoke to our Chief Cricket Writer cricket Stephan Shemilt and began by asking him if it was a gamble to pick archer. It really interesting call from the england selectors because we know how talented Jofra Archer Is, he burst onto the scene in 2019, famously bowled that super over that won england the 50 over world cup but pretty much since that point has been plagued by injuries, Back Problems most significantly, the right elbow issue that kept him out of all last years home summer and meant he has not played any top level cricket since last may. But england are aware that may be the fast Bowling Department is their weakest area of 13. They have been really cautious in the way that they have brought archer back to fitness. Maybe there is a feeling that he has been rushed in the past. Weakest area of their team. He may be ready to go not only for the world cup but for the four t20s against pakistan at home that precedes that tournament. One thing that rob key was also keen to stress today, that archer is really keen, even for a character as cool as he is most of the time, to be playing in the world cup, to play for england in barbados, the place where he was born. There is no doubt that if Jofra Archer Is fit and firing england look a more complete package.

The way this was described to tapering off . The way this was described to us tapering off . The way this was described to us by tapering off . The way this was described to us by england, i tapering off . The way this was l described to us by england, that chris woakes has just been edged out by reece topley as a new ball bowler, with arch are also in the squad that is three new ball bowlers possibly for two slots. England have been very keen to say this is not the end of chris woakes, even as a white ball archer. I would expect to see chris woakes back in the mix for the home summer, the test series against west indies and sri lanka because he offers england so much with ball and bat in test cricket, particularly in home conditions. But he can feel unfortunate, woakes is a man who has won the world cup in both limited overs formats, he played a key role in 2019 at home and again in australia two years ago but hes been squeezed out by the re emergence of archer, the form of reece topley, and also the all round package that england feel chris jordan brings with his death bowling, power hitting, his batting has improved in the past year, and jordan is probably pound for pound the best all round fielder on the planet.

Fresh in the mind is the shambolic 50 over world cup in india last autumn. It is strange, it feels like that world cup was only five minutes ago and here we are talking about a squad for the next one, such as the cricketing calendar. England were poor in that tournament. But the thing to remember about a T20 World Cup is much more of a lottery than the 50 over version. Sometimes the best team doesnt actually win it. That said, england have a kind ish draw at the 20 teams, this enlarged competition. And you would think an appearance in the semifinals, anything other than that questions would start to be asked about the future. That questions would start to be asked about the future. Questions would start to be asked about the future. That is on the bbc sort about the future. That is on the bbc sport website now, all english clubs have been knocked out of the Champions League, but there are still two key english players involved. The first leg of Bayern Munich against real madrid is tonight in germany a game, which over here is being billed as harry kane againstjude bellingham. Bellingham trained with his team mates in munich last night. The 20 year old has scored 21 goals in his debut season for real, helping them to an 11 point lead in the spanish league. Theyre also aiming for a 15th Champions League title. Bellinghams england team mate kane has also enjoyed a productive season with his new club. Hes scored 42 goals in all competitions for bayern, more than in any of his seasons at tottenham. But he is yet to win any silverware. After ten titles in a row, bayern lost the bundesliga to Bayer Leverkusen so the Champions League is their only hope of a trophy. Coach thomas tuchel, who is leaving at the end of the season, says small margins will be important against such a formidable side. There is no way to play this game without the lock on the day. If you hit the post, its the inside of the post, its the outside of the post, its a fraction offside, onside, you need these little decisions, of course, you need the momentum, bit of luck and you need the whole package if you want to overcome real madrid in a semifinal. We want to force things to a point where maybe this little luck is then the difference but we cannot over rely on it, for that it is not big enough, so we have to push it and we feel ready for it. Lets take you to the World Snooker championship in sheffield where the Quarter Final stages are well under way with world number twojudd trump taking onjakjones as he looks for a second title. Trump opened up this match with a superb 11 break, then he fell away, jakjones showing how dangerous he can be with, taking the second and third frames. Trump has shown his class taking the pink and black at the end of a eighth frame to level the match at 44. Things arent as close in the other Quarter Final. David gilbert leads sean maguire 7 1 at the mid session interval. Gilbert taking advantage in the final frame after a Respotted Black was missed by maguire. The world number 28 currently firmly in control of this one. Lebronjames has refused to talk about his future after the Los Angeles Lakers were knocked out of the nba play offs by last seasons champions the denver nuggets. The nbas all time leading points scorer was chasing his fifth title but now faces questions on whether he will play again. I dont have an answer to your first question, to be honest. I havent given it much thought. Obviously at some point i will sit down with rich, my agent, and sit down with my family and see what is best, what is best for my career. We will cross that when we need to. How taxing . Very taxing, mentally, physically and spiritually come everything, to be able to play this game alone and then to try to play at a high level is very taxing, it is a lot of dedication, hard work and a lot of long hours. There are nine water based sports in this summers olympics in paris, including rowing some of them in the pool, but many in outdoor water. There have been calls for action to address Water Pollution and several uk water based sports have united to demand that the uk government addresses pollution in rivers, lakes and coastal waters. They want compulsory monitoring of all Sewage Outlets to protect participants. Chair of uk sport, Dame Katherine grainger, says its a vitally important issue, but she does worry that highlighting it could deter some from taking up sports. I think on a positive more and more people are talking about it so the awareness has grown and grown but the flip side of that is why it still feels the waterways could be dangerous, orat still feels the waterways could be dangerous, or at least unhealthy, thenif dangerous, or at least unhealthy, then if you were a parent, if you were in charge of groups especially of young people, would you want your young people you are in charge of all parenting going into those waterways if there is a risk and danger . So i would worry that its going to have a negative effect on participation. The plus side is because there is an awareness, because there is an awareness, because there is action being taken, because there is action being taken, because conversations are happening, hopefully it will flip it and we will get cleaner waterways because of it. It is Sporting Bodies coming together in the alliance, individual athletes speaking out, but we work closely with the government and we want to influence the water companies. Everyone who has a voice and a Leadership Role and a part to play in this, if they havent stepped up already, this is the time to step up because we will ultimately run out of time. This is still reversible, there are still the good fight to be fought and changes made, but i dont think we can sit back, the sense of urgency is only growing and those in Leadership Roles need to really make this matter now. This matter now. Dame katherine grainrer this matter now. Dame Katherine Grainger there. This matter now. Dame Katherine Grainger there. Thats this matter now. Dame Katherine Grainger there.
