Bournemouth pushed a lot, but that is normal in this stadium with these players. I am so pleased with what we have done, and especially the last ten or 15 minutes, the best way to keep their resolve is to make 1000 million passes, so we did it really well. This game was all about winning and getting results. In terms of changing Team Selections and formation, we did that tonight within the game. We are always looking for more ways to get results. Ultimately i dont think we are judged by the nights game. Results. Ultimately i dont think we arejudged by the nights game. Our season will be judged by what happens from this point.

Patrick gearey looks at the man recruited to Restore English pride. A tremendous performance, root has played magnificently. A Magnificent 100 from root 1 heres the dynamo of circumstances. Heres the dynamo of the england team. Joe root has gotten used to being england crickets great hope. Now he faces something else, great responsibility. Life has prepared him for sport. In january responsibility. Life has prepared him for sport. Injanuary he became a father for the first time. He will approach leading just as he does parenting. It is one of those things that you sort of have to learn on the job. I suppose being a dad, you dont really know what to do until you sort ofjust have to go with it and see how it goes. I imagine that will be very similar. You can see baby alfie is already in white. It is after all a family that sta rts white. It is after all a family that starts them early. You will find roofs starts them early. You will find roots routes among fertile treating soil. On the outskirts of sheffield is where it began forjoe. He still goes back to sheffield collegiate, which has produced one captain and Michael Vaughan. His Brother Billy and dad matt also played here and the name has appeared on local scorecards further back still. The family are everywhere, even upstairs where grandmother barbara plays bridge.

You could look at virat kohli from india, joe root is in the same sort of class as a player. Root into the team that lost 4 0 in india last year and faces south africa in summer before the ashes to come winter. Who knows how he will affect . We can, though, guess his approach. In the words of his grandfather, mad keen. Former england captain Michael Vaughan Believesjoe Root is ready to imitate virat kohli, who also took over as captain of india at a young age. Australias steve smith became the skipper of the baggy greens in 2015, and this is how his record stands after 1a matches. Kane williamson followed Brendon Mccullum as the new zealand captain, and he has won more than he has lost in the last 12 months. But by some distance the most impressive record belongs to kohli, whose 23 tests as captain includes a 19 match unbeaten stretch. And kohlis india beat bangladesh by 208 runs in their one off test in hyderabad, concluding on monday. Having been set an unlikely a59 to win their first ever test match on indian soil, a fighting half century from Mohammad Mahmudullah couldnt get them there. Bangladesh were all out for 250 just before tea on the final day. Spinners ravi ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja shared eight wickets. So kohlis record as captain is impressive, but he thinks the credit needs to be spread around. I dont think it is because of me. Everyone at the International Level wa nts to everyone at the International Level wants to do well. It is as simple as that and we are playing as a team. I think that has been the difference in this team. You can say probably 2016, you know, i have scored a lot of runs, but before that, 2015 as well, we won test matches where i didnt score many runs but the other quys didnt score many runs but the other guys were didnt score many runs but the other guys were stepping up and scoring runs. Their confidence was affecting me, that is how you play as a team. It is a combination that has culminated in glory so many times, but Rafael Nadals partnership with his uncle toni will come to an end this season. Toni will step down as rafas coach, as he feels he has been sidelined by otherfigures in the players entourage.

Tomas berdych is through to the second round of the rotterdam open, after a 7 6, 6 3 win over marius copil on monday. The czech, who is seeded fourth, won this tournament in 2014, and was beaten finalist in 2015. But he was taken the distance by the romanian qualifier in the first set.

At the alpine world skiing championships, switzerlands luca aernie is the mens alpine combined world champion, and no one is more surprised by that than the man himself. Aernie only just scraped into the slalom event, after finishing 30th in the downhill. If he had finished just 0. 06 second slower, he would have missed the cut. But he produced a barnstorming run in the slalom to claim an unlikely gold ahead of the defending champion, Marcel Hirscher of austria, by 0. 01 second.

But, from me and the rest of the sport today team, goodbye. Morning. Well, it was a fairly miserable weekend, wasnt it . Cold and bleak for many of us, so monday was a better day. The exception, though, the far north east. It was still rather disappointingly cool. Across aberdeen, only five degrees, a lot of cloud as well. You can see on a Satellite Picture from monday, where the cloud is that for scotland. Elsewhere, there was a decent amount of sunshine to be found. It was windy but the sunshine hopefully compensated. And in the south west, in exeter, we had a high of 13 degrees. Thats a bit more like it, isnt it . There is some cloud and rain down into the south west. A Weather Front approaching into cornwall over the next few hours. Staying quite windy with some hill fog through the Higher Ground of wales, north west england. A chilly start for many of us, with the exception perhaps into the south west. So first thing on tuesday will look somewhat like this. Cloud and outbreaks of rain through cornwall, eventually nudging into parts of devon. A little more cloud through somerset and south wales, and that hill fog as well. But elsewhere it will be a cold start with some decent spells of sunshine. Further north and west again dry, largely sunny, maybe the chance of a little bit bit of light, patchy frost in sheltered areas of scotland, but not a bad start to the day. And, as we go on through the day, i think you will continue to see some sunshine, and temperatures will be a degree also up on where they were on monday. The exception really is into the south west, where the cloud will begin to gather, pushing up through the midlands and into wales. Eventually into northern ireland. It will bring the Odd Spot Of Showery Rain by the end of the day. But temperatures still decent, 11 12 degrees. Highs hopefully six or seven into eastern scotland. So were starting to get there. That Weather Front will move out of the way, and then we have this series of fronts out to the south west which produce a messy picture for wednesday. There will be some rain with these frontal systems, but it is going to be very hit and miss as they drift up from the south. There will be outbreaks of patchy rain. It will be cloudy but mild and less windy than we have seen this week. The best of the brightness into the far north and east. Eight or nine degrees by wednesday afternoon. Highest values of 11 further south. Things are likely to quieten down as we go towards the end of the week. The isobars will open up, the winds will fall lighter, and that means that there will be a good deal of dry, mild weather in the story. But Early Morning mist and fog could be a problem. That will slowly lift, and any rain we get will be light and patchy. So, all in all, not a bad end to the week.
