in australia, when they were here in australia, when they were thrashed and lost here at they were thrashed and lost here at the gabba. there are a number of inexperienced players, an untried and untested to a certain degree. australia have this formidable pace attack led by mitchell starc. he has been described as nasty, which shows what england make of them. both ca pta i ns what england make of them. both captains were in a composed mood ahead of the test. what a start to the series. if we can go up here, it could really upset the apple cart. we have built momentum over three games, and everyone has put momentum in. every series is different, and we cannot play this game on what happened in the past. there is always pressure going into an ashes series, particularly when you are playing at home. we don't need to put any more pressure on ourselves, if that makes sense. it's another game of cricket, and we have to make sure we play well from the first ball, that first session, and make sure we are in the contest. spectators flooding into the gabba behind you. what is the weather like, becau

hence, australia are favourites in australia because the ball won't swing. their batsmen are clueless when the ball swings through the air. they're very good players when it's up and down. steve smith, especially. the best player in the world against a ball. not even in the top 20 there. there's a view and maybe you expressed it yourself. smith and david warner really are all that they've got to rely on, but then of course, england only have alastair cook and joe root. you could argue that the top fives are similar. they've got two world class players in both top fives. the captain and a left—handed opener. 0bviously, cook and warner are different players but they bring the same sort of thing to a team — experience, runs in the bank. both teams have got three positions. they haven't fully been nailed down. fairly young, inexperienced players. players who need a big ashes to prove themselves, to concrete themselves a place in the team. where england are very much stronger than australia, in my view, is batting from 6, 7, 8, 99, with stokes, wokes, ali. au

they must come back with the feet this never australia policy but they've also australia got the the old now with the united states to take some of the refugees again you might think well developed countries why would why would that be any more of the parish than anything else but again it's that by the principle your form of government has not australia in a sense anywhere but if they want to work through that deal with the us moving painfully slowly we don't trump that cycle if the refugees have been resettled in more than a year and we're talking numbers we will have to invest a grant of the show right here and i thank you so much for being part of this conversation thank you for joining us keep us posted a sense about i know it's one that actually any one to keep following after man as we're going even further south to the end of the world here's a peek at the award winning interactive project done by al-jazeera earlier this year. by showing building live here a little just the beginning of what is forecast to be a much larger story on the next chart the twenty four hours we're g

we are watching daybreak australia. the bank of korea expected to raise their interest rates for the first time in more than six years. what does that mean for other central banks in the region? andportfolio manager kapstream capital from sydney, is a bloomberg economics editor kathleen hays joining in on the conversation. raymond come on its own, you would think the bull markets are looking so focused on the bank of korea. be raising interest rates for the first time in six years. do you think it's time they do this? >> i think so if you look at the macroeconomic developments in korea. they research the corporate sector and struggling a couple of years ago. the one has rallied in quite a bit in recent weeks as well. it makes sense from a fundamental perspective. bank of korea is not alone on many central banks looking to hike rates. it is debatable in australia and looking at other countries and ecb. they look to be on their tightening path, look at the bank of england. raymond summarizing it for the fed means that the

two late wickets for australia. the first two days we re for australia. the first two days were level pegging, it is now australia who have the upper hand. after a to the ashes, was this the day pendulum swung? it's tantalisingly edged towards england. when ward removed start a first england lead was inside but they could not shift australia's rock. steve smith was notjust a century but the batting masterclass. that is what it means the rescue your team. with partners running out he guided australia into the lead and when the innings finally ended australia where 26 ahead and smith 141 not out, cheered to the rafters. now for england's openers to steady the ship oi’ england's openers to steady the ship or not. a hug from alastair cook in stark reels in. it did not get any better in a torrid final session. james vince next, 17—2 as australia's pace men piled on the pressure. horrible woman forjoe root thankfully unhurt with mark stallman clinging on the close but england are up against that. it was such a final dramatic session, a torrid one. the pacem

eight tries scored, a record win over australia in scottish rugby is ina good over australia in scottish rugby is in a good place. an amazing results to think we have scored so many points against the current number of the team in the world and obviously have to take into account the red card. they were playing well at the beginning and came back well in the second half but i felt we kept the mindset of wanting to play in working very hard and got on words. england finished their internationals with three wins out of three, beating samoa by 48—14. the samoa ns have of three, beating samoa by 48—14. the samoans have lost every game, and england only pulled away in the second half. a last—minute score made it a record victory against samoa, this was england's seventh try. and the captain dylan hartley said he was happier with the score than the performance. wales are looking to make history at the principality stadium, looking to beat the all blacks for the first time since 1853. new zealand have lost the last 29 matches between these two sides, let's take a look then at the live pic

two late wickets for australia. the first two days were level pegging, it is now australia who have the upper hand. after a balance the start to the ashes, was this the day the pendulum finally swung? briefly and tantalisingly it edged towards england, shaun marsh won a cluster of early wickets and when stuart broad brilliantly removed mitchell sta rc broad brilliantly removed mitchell starc the first innings lead was on their sites. they could not shift is truly a's rock, steve smith with not just the same today but a batting masterclass. that is what it means to rescue your team. with partners running out he guided a failure into the leeds and whether innings finally ended in failure were 26 ahead. smith was 141 not out, cheered that the rafters. now for england's openers to steady the ship first up or not. they took for alastair cook and stark reeled in him. that did not get any better in a torrid final session, 70—2 as is gillian‘s paceman piled on the pressure. joe root was thankfully unhurt, and cullen to

first—blood to australia. they continue their love affair with the gabba. 2010 earning yea rs affair with the gabba. 2010 earning years unbeaten at the gabba. —— 29 yea rs years unbeaten at the gabba. —— 29 years unbeaten. england fell away at the back end of the day which we thought was a strength for them. stuart broad was unlucky to get out on the snicko. it happened to him last series as well. it was easy today. david warner, 87. cameron bancroft, a debutant, a great run for him. he is up and away for international cricket, scoring many i’u ns international cricket, scoring many runs in domestic cricket. look out for him. he has a technicalflaw runs in domestic cricket. look out for him. he has a technical flaw not hitting the ball as well in the offsiders as the leg. and steve smith shows you don't have to have the technique to be a world—class player. good news as well for shaun marsh, getting a half—century. the questions about the australian middle order, they are still bear. by middle or

australia made 178—2 from their 20 overs. beth mooney scored an unbeaten ii7, but england reached the big target with an over to spare. henry moeran was in canberra for the finale. well, one of the most extraordinary gains of t20 cricket you could ever wish to see. two centuries, a record run chase, a multitude of dropped catches, and the net result, england winning the draw this ashes series. australia may retain the trophy but england will be leaving the ground with a smile on their faces. charlotte edwards, have you ever seen a game of t20 cricket quite like that? i haven't, no. it was sensational, beth mooney‘s 100, england 30 sensational, beth mooney‘s100, england 30 43, and then the partnership of wyatt and knight, it was outstanding, but it was the dropped catches, wasn't it? and that for australia was the disappointing way to end the series. not for england it was a great way to end the series, 8—8, they will be pleased to leave australia but sad to leave without the ashes. beth mooney‘s 117 not out, we though

australia have an incredible record here at the gabba. they have not lost a test match here the nearly 30 yea rs. lost a test match here the nearly 30 years. not surprisingly, they are full of confidence. we know how to play there. the crowd always gets behind australia. it'll be great. i'm hoping. it's one of my favourite places. i'm looking forward to getting out there and hopefully making the english uncomfortable. this is something of a fortress for australian cricket. we will see how it goes on thursday. most of the money is going on an aussie series win, but one englishman who has won the ashes twice twice has other ideas. i'm not quite as bullish. the big thing about australia, and i'm contradicting myself, all that pressure can quickly turn on them. the taxi drivers will start slapping the aussies. i think we will lose at the aussies. i think we will lose at the gabba. and then will get beaten in perth. and then melbourne and syd ney in perth. and then melbourne and sydney be. in just under 11 hours, the final match of the women's

and you named it australia, and it's epic and it weaves a lot of australia's relatively recent history... how foolish can you be? yeah. yes, and it did pretty well, but some critics liked it and some didn't like it at all. yeah. but was it very personal to you? totally. what were you trying to...? what was i thinking? was it a love letter to australia? was i crazy?! by the way, look, it's... none of my films in my view are complete. none of them are everything i imagined them to be. all of them get to a place where i go, well, it's kind of working now. and it's like a child — it has to go out in the world. are you telling me it wasn't actually finished? i don't think any of my movies are finished. never. there's an old saying — you don't finish them, they take them away. you know? i'm not one of those parents who go, like, "oh, they're not ready to go off to school yet," you know? but let's come back to why i did it. absolutely, we had our children, we had been living... we've lived around the world, australians are great travellers. and i wanted to make sure that there was an earl

was he an australian who felt out of tune with australia? because, my perhaps stereotypical and cliched notion of the australia of your youth, particularly, you know, in the nonmetropolitan areas, would have been about a very macho culture, pretty much preoccupied with sports and maybe, for the men, beer. and yet, you gravitated to things, including cinema and dance and a whole bunch of other stuff, that were nothing to do with those stereotypes. first of all the stereotype, right, because i think you're probably somewhat on point but i would also proffer that one of the idiosyncratic qualities about australia, which is a tremendous thing, is that it is what i would call a flashes of lightning culture. meaning, you might look at sydney and go, well, what a generic bunch of buildings and then suddenly the sydney opera house. you know. and you might go, well, there it is, isolated edge of the world but along comes a gough whitlam and our forbearers who say we must have a drama school, we must have a film school. this is in the 70s and we, the

and as a map curator, doctor woods, sometimes to australia. and as a map curator, doctorwoods, do you sometimes to australia. and as a map curator, doctor woods, do you feel a personal connection to this object? very much so, this for me is the moment where australia appears from out of the indian ocean in the west. not from the pacific, interestingly, because the dutch didn't chart the east coast of australia, but from me —— for me, there is the appearance from scientific cartographic measurements and the production of a beautiful map, combined which makes this a really special and spectacular object. and you had better check your attic for some collectable items. when president trump arrives in south korea, he will be met by supporters, but big protests are also expected. the us anti—missile system that has been installed in south korea has proved controversial. we spoke to some of the residents of suseong—ri, in the south of the country, where the thaad system has been deployed. donald trump arrives in south korea today. you have be

now, australia has not agreed to that. part of the thinking could well be that australia doesn't want any of these refugees ending up in australia through the backdoor, if you like. if these refugees were to go to new zealand and be granted new zealand citizenship, they could be allowed to come to australia. and all the way through this crisis, canberra has insisted these refugees on manus island and nauru will never be allowed to set foot in australia. so, this will be a point of discussion when the new prime minister of new zealand, jacinta arden, meets her counterpart in australia, malcolm turnbull, on thursday. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: after the man arrested for tuesday's attack in new york is charged, we speak to the british tourist who spent an hour in his cab last week. also on the programme: scientists have discovered a new species of great ape. we'll tell you all about the orangutan that's already under threat. the israeli prime minister, yitzhak rabin, the architect of t

do you see your australia becoming more tolera nt your australia becoming more tolerant and open? first of all, for the first time i have not been back in my own country for maybe 18 months or longer. i go back at christmas. it is very important. i think flashes of lightning. the country has always had tremendous the openhearted vision, but it also pulls it back into a sort of conservatism and jostles between the two things. so i got great... i am not ina two things. so i got great... i am not in a position to speak with great information. i go back to reconnect. but i think australia and australians, they really believe in afairgo, and australians, they really believe in a fair go, and they are really openhearted. and i am looking forward to be energised by the positive uplift. they last month a question, a lot of people, critics, feel that your first movie was your best. do you think your best movie is yet to be made? i think probably mickjagger has the same problem with satisfaction. it is like, you know, and i — i think, to as your question, and i am not good at staying on t

the bbc‘s dave woods and brian noble will be watching in western australia. the weather in perth this week has been pretty nice, very hot in fact. perhaps that's been an issue for england because at times they have had to train in hot weather but the good news is, jermaine mcgilvray can play, he's been found not guilty of the biting charge and four new faces in the england side. is this realistically a chance for players to play themselves into wayne bennett's first team thoughts? first and foremost, great decision on the jermaine mcgilvray thing, he didn't bite. can they claim to be the best team, of course they can with an outstanding man of the match performance but i think that's what it will take. maybe taylor can push the hardest, quite a few players will want to do that. it's a tough ask. they've got a lot to do. it's a good question you ask. in relation to will any of those four, that's their decision. all wayne bennett can do is give them an opportunity, that's all they've got in the locker. we have seen the boys, wayne bennett has talked them up say

the first triumph of this ashes winter has gone australia's way. england's women rugby players have bounced back from their world cup final defeat this summer to thump. —— canada 79—5 in the first of three tests against them this autumn. in their first game since the rfu confirmed they'll be paid match fees, england were rampant running in 13 tries at allianz park, six of them scored by harlequins wing jess breech on her debut. the two sides will play again next tuesday and saturday. there was one game in the aviva premiership tonight where top of the table saracens lost at gloucester. sarries dominated the first half at kingsholm, but a remarkable comeback from gloucester meant they scored 20 second half points including this try by tom hudson to seal a 23—17 victory. so confirmation of that score and the night's two other matches in the anglo welsh cup. both all welsh affairs as ospreys won at cardiff and the dragons beat the scarlets. onto tennis and andy murray has split with his coach ivan lendl for the second time. during their time t

of oche australia says it guarantees australia's manage time borders but critics have consistently criticised conditions inside the camp as being in the main and cruel —— maritime borders. the united nations has criticised these camps as well as various human rights organisations and the general criticism is the conditions inside these camps are harsh and australia is violating international law. do you think mr turnbull will have appreciated this offer from turnbull will have appreciated this offerfrom new turnbull will have appreciated this offer from new zealand turnbull will have appreciated this offerfrom new zealand or might there be any hint of embarrassment? this offer has been made before by new zealand a few years ago. it was rejected then. it's been rejected today, sunday here in australia. the main reason for that as far as the australian government is concerned, while back it agreed with the outgoing 0bama administration for the united states to take about 1200 refugees from manus island and nauru. currently about 50 people have been resettled. donald trump once described it
