never doubted myself. off field stuff is a little bit tough. you could certainly do without that. but i think it is fine. penny has dropped. it is a different environment now a days. over the last 3—4 weeks, i think it was evident that the penny had dropped. going forward, i do not foresee any problems there. but it has certainly been a challenge, earlier in the tour. a little earlier i spoke to our cricket correspondent jonathan agnew and asked him about bayliss setting an end date for his time in charge of england. some people could say it was presumptuous. i will be easier and to 2019 anyway? i am not sure about is how he said it but he clearly believes he has got a part to play until 2019. going to be a review of this tour, if those conducting that feel that the court is culpable for the performance then he could not be here in 2019. do you think he is culpable in any part? they will be looking at the discipline off field. that is something that he has admitted has really dogged the tour. it started with ben stokes, entirely out of his hands but always a lot of scrutiny of the players, and from the first night onwards... incidents. it is something that falls onto his watch. the has to set the discipline required. finally, no time to catch breath. one day seriies. then new zealand, pakistan, india. what do you hope to see from them, going forward? got to get a young quick bowler. that works, england, australia. a while now, we've worried about ali. i think he has been over performing. probably underperformed and astute reader. in the middle, the happy balance. batsmen who bowls. got to get the front line spinner. and importantly, got to hope that root‘s confidence has not taken any sort of bashing after this series. time will tell. that was the cricket correspondent. let's take a look at a few of the other stories making the headlines this evening... johanna konta says she "feels good" and is fit ahead of the australia open which starts on monday, despite being knocked out in the first round of the sydney international. the british number one was the defending champion in sydney, but was handed a tough draw against agnieszka radwanska and lost in straight sets. the video assistant referee — or var — will be used in next week's fa cup third round replays between chelsea and norwich, and leicester and fleetwood town. var was used for the first time in a competitive english club game in last night's fa cup win for brighton in the third round. the wales and ospreys flanker dan lydiate has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a bicep injury. lydiate was injured in ospreys' win at dragons on new year's eve and will undergo surgery later this week. it's another blow to wales ahead of the six nations, with sam warburton out and taulupe faletau also a doubt. uk sport has set team gb a target of at least five medals at next month's winter olympics in south korea. the current record is four set in 192a and also the last games in sochi. team gb's paralympic athletes have been set a target of seven. korean cultural centre, central london. for everything the winter games means to the host nation, it means more than ever to british sport. an audience gathered to hear the targets. lizzy arnold's gold was one of four british winter olympic medlas won in 2014. five at least are expected this time. can we really be winning more medals, in more sports with more investment? it has to stop somewhere, hasn't it? i know. it's a good question. every time it seems to be "this will be the best ever this time." you think, is it possible to keep going? the great thing with the winter olympics and paralympics, it is a games that is developing in great britain, we have had some really impressive results over the past few olympic games and paralympic games. we are seeing more consistenvy now. it is an area we can grow. speed skater elise christie could win two medals for britain on her own. as for the winter paralympics, the medal target is at least seven. there is always more to be played for. you make connections where you see them. what we do see is the profound sense people get from the paralympics, that it is high class sport, but with a higher purpose, it tells you something about your self and what is possible. i hope will challenge perceptions of disability in society. the uk's investment in pyeongchang's winner sport is 32 million of lottery money. as ever, that is only fun if it pays off. you might remember that if yorkshire was a country, it would have finished 12th in the medal table at the 2012 olympics. now the region is looking for sporting independence by setting up its own international football team! confused? dave edwards went along to find out just what is going on. yorkshire. god's county. it has got its own identity, dialect, way of life. why not its own football team? they have already been chosen, some with experience at the likes of regenerated and hull are hoping to be picked. it is amazing. what a privilege. great community project. i have been on trial at some clubs. it was a great opportunity. i have enjoyed it. i hope i get to represent yorkshire. when you are a little kid... when you are getting released from an academy you think the dream has died. this comes along. yes. international football. proud moment. you have got to have been born here. this is the stadium. the usual base of miners‘ welfare! forget fifa and uefa, it has just been excepted as the newest member of independent football associations. it has its own world cup. it includes some small countries and some places that are not officially recognised those countries. potential opponents include... the first match is going to be three weeks. against the isle of man. yorkshire has a very strong and distinct identity. people consider themselves yorkshire rather than english. this is a reflection. their own team. kit and equipment already sorted. and the players should not even think about diving or playacting. that as a disciplinary matter. only proper football allowed here. champion. good luck to them! much more on the website. all the build—up to that match. manchester city have made four changes. toure starts. mangala, silva, de bruyne in. not taking bristol city lightly. much more on the website about those fa cup reforms. that‘s all from sportsday. we‘ll have more throughout the evening.
