joe root escaped. so to ben stokes, the west indian catching up ben stokes, the west indian catching up to their bowling. joe root went 250 for a record equalling i2 up to their bowling. joe root went 250 for a record equalling 12 is draped test. persistent and poignant, as a boy, he would have been amongst them. joe root went for 59. having corrected one early mistake, one remained outstanding. ben stokes is often outstanding. having been dropped, he can be uncatchable. but a chance game. a ball later came a century which might never have happened, and upon which england have relied. gabriel, the man whose catching or lack of allowed ben stokes to get the 100, sealed his late. england 258 all out. they got current power before the close. then, this was a day which should have gone better. —— kieran power. it is sensational cricket. there is no such thing as an easy game. there were some bowlers did a greatjob. they contained really well and picked up wickets when they needed to. so yes, i thought

at least joe root escaped here. so too, ben stokes. west indian catching not up to speed with their bowling. stokes went up to 50 for a record equalling strolled straight test. then started and last though. joe root went for 59. having corrected one earlier sta ke 59. having corrected one earlier stake in limerick are mistaken, there was one outstanding. having been dropped, he can become and catchable. but a chance, rage understandable. then a century that might never have happened. and upon which england have relied. gabriel, the man who is catching or lack of, allow ben stokes to reach 100, bowled the ball which ended his inning. that was goodbye. england we re inning. that was goodbye. england were all out shortly a258, should do better, could have done far worse. the worry for the west indies is their batting. in a short setting for the close... they were caught by james anderson. they lost 19 wickets on the last day of the last test, there will be a worry they will colla pse there will be a worry they will collapse again tomorrow

joe root hasn't seen the pitch, so we can't see the team. the weather is one of the many unknowns about this test. in the work to do at old trafford to get the pitch ready for tomorrow. plenty of work for england. they lost the last match in eight of their last nine test series. south africa will be aware of that. they bounced back in the series once already, with their bowler recovered from his virus. they arrived with optimism and honesty. one team is on top for a couple of days and the new rock at the next day and it changes completely. we've spoken about the areas where we can improve, but it is important for me that we put back to bed. one team trying to win its first series in a year, the other confident and capable of snatching it from them. all set out for a classic, weather permitting, of course. cricket already going on. day two gets under way in just under four hours. india are gaining a commanding position. a partnership of 211 to date. it was his 13th test century and his 15th test match. india are leading the three match series

captain joe root thinks they'll come good. this is another opportunity for them. and as i said, they are desperate to stand their mark on test cricket. it's a different pressure all the time. and there are different things that we have to overcome. but i'm fully expecting they'll be able to do that throughout the series. there is one big cricket match at the moment. it's a bit different, though. (00v)a mixture of former cricketers and celebrities involved. . including it's the test match special 60th anniversary match in leeds. a mixture of former cricketers and celebrities involved including radio 1's greg james who dropped this at slip. he was on his phone and on air at the time. there's been some impressive batting from mcbusted drummer and former strictly champion harryjudd, clearly as at home with a cricketball as he was beneath the glitterball. that's all from sportsday. there'll be more sport here on bbc news throughout the evening no reminder of our top story, totte n ha m no reminder of our top story, tottenham and celtic have tough draws in the champions

joe root used to come to headingley as a boy was dropped at slip off the bowling of gabriel. how costly could that be? good joe root has made 50s and 11 straight test matches and deliver that escape has not been a good morning for england. the ashes are less tha n morning for england. the ashes are less than three months away. chris coleman has announced his wales squad. the draw for the group stages of the europa league are out and arsenal will pay the belarussian team. colin and belgrade. everton addenbrooke e with leon at atalanta and limassol cyprus. the early kick—off in the premier league tomorrow, or musty, just and the manager says his team need to kick—start their season after losing both of opening the games and he hasn't impressed with how his players started the campaign. not great. the results are one thing but the performances have been the most disappointing factor in that. i don't think we've got going yet. we need to make sure this weekend with the quality of opposition that we really do fire. west bromwich have signed scotland winger 0liver buck from lei

that was joe root. remember, entertainment is the point of this whole exercise. well, the ball could be red, pink, or polka dot. that had four written all over it and root, the captain, had another century. waiting for the nightlife? well, the lights were coming on. the 100 for alastair cook came shortly before 7:30pm and it all seemed a bit easy, butjoe root fell for 136, and did the day have a twilight twist? remember, the whole point about the new pink ball is that it can be used after dark, and finally, at about 8:30pm, the floodlight was coming into its own. a shiny pink ball under lights is what batsmen had feared. no need. west indies delivered very little. cook went past 150, england 348—3. see you in the morning — or rather, the afternoon. joe wilson, bbc news, edgbaston. pupils at a school in west london, which sits in the shadow of grenfell tower, were among those who received their a—level results today. many of them lived in or around the tower block. four students and one former pupil died in the fire. 0thers lost their homes as they were prep

so england looked to the angelic face of their captain, joe root, the closest to a guarantee of runs. but look at the expression — batting was not easy. this was on 49. say it ain't so, joe. the match ended in another rush. south africa gave everything to take more wickets, but england attacked as they tired, moeen ali taking aim at 50. no south african was catching that, so jonny bairstow took it. fielding several floors up. as the rain arrived — england's lead, is it now out of reach? arsenal have won the fa community shield for the 15th time after beating chelsea 4—1 on penalties at wembley. it finished 1—1 so it had to go to spot kicks. in a sport so often divided, the rare sight of rivals united. this year's community shield dedicated to the grenfell tower disaster. many of those affected in attendance, and all of the victims honoured in silence. a repeat of the may fa cup final, arsenal picking up where they left off as record signing alexandre lacazette was so close to opening his account. slowly, chelsea showed glimpses of the form that lead them to the league title. a

joe root made 49 with the ball spinning and keeping low. eventually he was bowled. the only batsman to play with any real freedom was moeen ali. he was dropped early but then played some lovely shots. a huge six caught by the wicket—keeper in the dressing room. two schedules days remaining we may not need them and looking at the forecast we may not get them. key wickets for us to get early. they have got the batting but we have been bowling really well and all seamers and myself have bowled nice and tight. i think we are in a good position. look, they are leading but under 380, good position. look, they are leading but under380, i good position. look, they are leading but under 380, i think we have done pretty well. why can't we do it now? we still believe we can chase any score down here. we have to do is to bat sol chase any score down here. we have to do is to bat so i feel like firstly we need to get those two wickets in the morning and then we can concentrate on acting. meanwhile, in colombo, india have the series. sri lanka well beaten in the second test —

so england looked to the angelic face of their captain, joe root, the closest to a guarantee of runs. but look at the expression — batting was not easy. this was on 49. say it ain't so, joe. the match ended in another rush. south africa gave everything to take more wickets, but england attacked as they tired, moeen ali taking aim at 50. no south african was catching that, so jonny bairstow took it. fielding several floors up. as the rain arrived — is england's lead now out of reach? i had ihada i had a few hacks which you get away with at times but i felt the situation of the game needed a bit of impetus and a few shots. to try to get 30—40 as quick as we can and see where we go from there. sometimes you can be a sitting duck andi sometimes you can be a sitting duck and i felt today i sometimes you can be a sitting duck and ifelt today i did not sometimes you can be a sitting duck and i felt today i did not want to do that. arsenal have claimed their first trophy of the season — they beat chelsea on penalties to win the community shield at wembley. it finished 1—1 — so it

joe root has been dropped, even out lbw, but overturned it. england want a decent total on the board. they have a long batting lineup, but they will need every wicket given how this test match has gone so far for them. if they can ball in a decent partnership, it is a high scoring ground. —— goo. it is whether we have good spells with enough wickets in hand. lam happy i am happy so far with how things have gone. there is a long way to go. we just have to make sure tomorrow morning is as hard as we can do. any figures in your mind you wa nt to can do. any figures in your mind you want to keep? anything under150 should be good. we have three wickets so far. we have to push hard. if we can break this partnership early and get stoke and johnny as early as possible, that will be the best for us. india secured a six wicket victory over sri lanka in pallekelle in the third match their one day series which also wraps up the best of five contest. jasprit bumrah picked up five wickets as the hosts could only manage 217 for nine while rohit sharma hi

joe root started at the crease. he added overnight to make 72 before being caught. the next player was dropped. a costly mistake for the west indies. he grafted for 50. important in the match. ben stokes play beautifully. lovely attacking cricket. unfortunately he was caught on the boundary. still not sufficient. they lost a cluster of wickets. ba i rstow not sufficient. they lost a cluster of wickets. bairstow went to a reverse swee p of wickets. bairstow went to a reverse sweep when it wasn't needed. they needed moeen ali, who soothed the nerves of everyone. he made 84 beautiful runs. he batted at number eight. no one is better at that position in the world. chris woakes was at nine. they hoped to get some west indian batsmen out. england did not take any wickets but then the chances of victory on the fifth day. we may see jimmy anderson's chances of victory on the fifth day. we may seejimmy anderson's 500 chances of victory on the fifth day. we may see jimmy anderson's 500 test cricket. it is not certain. you hopefully want to bowl. it was overcast. it is nice to

root will be pretty happy this evening. barcelona defeated chapecoense 5—0 in the joan gamper trophy at camp nou on monday, but it wasn't really about the result. the match was a chance to honour the brazilian side after a devastating plane crash last november that killed 19 players and 2a club officials when they were on their way to face colombian‘s atletico nacional in the final of the copa sudamericana. on an emotional night for the visitors, chapecoense were captained by alan ruschel while nieto and jakson folman the only other two surviving players kicked off the match. and when it got going it didn't take the hosts long to assert their superiority with lionel messi getting his name on the scoresheet, albeit with a bit of luck as he grabbed the third and his strike partner luis suarez slotted a fourth from a tough angle as 65,000 people witness the catalans helping rebuild a brazilian club hit by tragedy. former barcelona player neymar‘s world record transfer may have happened last week but people are still talk

captain joe root thinks they'll come good. this is another opportunity for them, and they are desperate to stamp their mark on test cricket, and it is different pressure all the time. and there are different things that you have to overcome, but i fully expect that they will be able to do that throughout this series. coverage of the second test is on 5live sports xtra from ten o'clock. that's all from sportsday. coming up in a moment, the papers. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are baroness ros altmann, former pensions minister and mihir bose, author and evening standard columnist. the ft leads with employers calling for more clarity over the status of eu nationals after brexit — following the fall in net migration figures. the metro has more on the woman accused of wasting police resources with false rape allegations. the telegraph says new "driverless" lorries are to be trialled on uk motorways next year — despite warnings over safety from the aa. the mail

england were in big trouble, it would have been worse had joe root been caught. we knew with three seamers in the line—up, we had to ask them to come back for more spells and if they were able to bowl in a decent partnership to weather about storm, it is quite a quick scoring ground if you get bad balls. it is whether they are a good spells and make sure we had enough wickets at hand to try and capitalise when they do have to come back for the third and fourth spells. lewis hamilton has trimmed sebastien vettel‘s championship lead to seven points after victory in the belgian grand prix. having equalled michael schumacher‘s record of pole positions to start from the front of the grid, he went on to finish ahead of his title rival. as ben croucher reports. the bank holiday weekend. this was no time to relax. lewis hamilton and sebastien vettel started first and second and that continued for much of the race. as they kept a clean, others couldn't, the force india ca rs others couldn't, the force india cars somehow avoided a major shunt. as hamilton and sebasti

a bold declaration from the england captain, joe root. it was. not what many people expected. he declared without letting james anderson backed. perhaps the first sign of him putting his stamp on the england captaincy, not something many people think that alastair cook would have done. england still well on top. james anderson will fancy his chances of taking his 500th test wicket tomorrow that he needs another three to stop we saw moeen ali with a bat. the picture is starting to spin. that will make it difficult for the west indies for that there was still hope to take something from the match but england are well in charge. that is saying something considering where they we re something considering where they were a day or so. the england fans behind you will have been pleased to see today some strong performances in the end and batting line—up. we saw six of the batsmen in the middle and lower order getting half centuries. that shows the strength and depth in the england side at the moment. much is made about the england batting line—up. chris woa kes is england batting
