Wheelchair rachel Nathan Mcguire Goesin in his two years in charge, will now take on the one Day And T20 sides, after Matthew Mott was sacked after the t20 World Cup, where they were outclassed by the eventual Champions India Mccullum has also extended his contract until the end of 2027. I asked our chief Cricket Writer Stephan shemlit about why england have taken this step. I think it would be the best news for English Cricket after giving brendan mccullough myjob. Like you said, for two years, the testjob in the whitehalljob have been separate. England tried that ten years ago. It almost creates a two Tiered System that one team maybe gets left behind. The Whitehall Team has gone backward slightly. It baa has gone backward slightly. It has been curious has gone backward slightly. It has been curious since has gone backward slightly. It has been curious since the has gone backward slightly. It has been curious since the arrival has gone backward slightly. It has been curious since the arrival of. Been curious since the arrival of mccullum, and the white Ball Teams have just gone backwards. Mccullum, and the white Ball Teams havejust gone backwards. Est mccullum, and the white Ball Teams have just gone backwards. Have ust gone backwards. At the time have just gone backwards. At the time when have just gone backwards. At the time when brendon have just gone backwards. At the time when Brendon Mccullum have just gone backwards. At the | time when Brendon Mccullum was have just gone backwards. Sit the time when Brendon Mccullum was given thejob, we thought time when Brendon Mccullum was given the job, we thought there would be more suited to be a white ball coach. He really made his game in the white Ball Format. He didnt want to take on a cushy number. Mccullum said he wanted a challenge, he wants something to put his mark on, which hes done with the Test Team not only with the upturn in result, but with the way that they play as well. Its all about the atmosphere. Just quickly, do you think it might have an impact on playing personnel in the white Ball Format . Does Ben Stokes get tempted back . I expect we will see a lot more crossover within the two teams for a lot of the time. England have needed two teams at once. It does ease in the new year, so can mccullum tempt a lot of the players are some of the players that he had success with in the pesticide into that white Ball Team as well not quite and staying with cricket lords will host and staying with cricket, lords will host the World Test Championship final for the first time next year. The five day final, which will start injune, will be held between the two highest ranking Test Teamsindia are currently top of the standings, with australia second. England are fifth, having lost six of their 15 tests over the past 18 months, but can still qualify for the final if they have a good winter in pakistan and New Zealand.

Its his first brazil call up. After a third, theyre down in sixth. Estevan, therell be huge pressure, especially on friday at home against ecuador, huge pressure from the crowd to see him out on the pitch. I suspect he wont start, but i would imagine that if we gone ten minutes into the game and its still 0 0, the crowd are going to start their World Cup qualifier against Paraguay On Saturday will be his last appearance for his country. The former Liverpool And Barcelona forward is uruguay� s all time leading scorer with 69 goals in 142 appearances. He made his debut 17 years ago. Victor 0simhen has long been one of the most coveted strikers in european football. The nigerian fired napoli to the Serie A title two seasons ago. Hes only 25 and has been linked with moves to some of europes top clubs over the past coupe of years, but when the Transfer Window closed on friday, he was still a Napoli Player albeit one that has been frozen out by the new boss antonio conte. But with the Transfer Window still open in turkey for another ten days, our senior Football Reporter Nizaar Kinsella explained to me how galatasary have offered him a way out. The turkish league isnt the destination necessarily, but galatasaray is a big club and they do have a bit of pull, but this is an opportunistic transfer because galatasaray have come in where nobody else has come in. Their window is open in turkey for ten more days. All of the windows in the top five leagues are close. Chelsea couldnt get it over the line, and now galatasaray can get a really nice loan and get him in. He can makea nice loan and get him in. He can make a huge impact to them. Opportunistic, unique, strange situation, but those scenes of Victor 0simhen coming off the plane, arriving in front of the galatasaray fans, thousands of them waiting outside the airport. Shows just how big the support is an just how excited they are for this move. Victor 0simhen was probably having words with his agent. Robert calendar had nothing to do with this move because it mucked up the Chelsea Move and added a possible move to the saudi pro league. That ma be a move to the saudi pro league. That may be a Way Move to the saudi pro league. That may be a way to move to the saudi pro league. Twat may be a way to putting it, but i think hes just too expensive. He renew his contract in napa in 2023. Napoli. His wages are well over £200,000 a week. Clubs are a bit sensitive of paying those kinds of sums. It is rare to get a player for that kind of money these days. I think clubs just werent willing to pull the trigger and i think maybe if he does well in turkey, he can trap those moves that he wants. But maybe also, napoli needs to drop the price and maybe he needs to drop his wages well. Price and maybe he needs to drop his wanes well. Price and maybe he needs to drop his wanes well. ,. ,. , lets move on to tennis. Jack draper has admitted that he hasnt really been pushed that much at the Us Open so far and knows that he will probably have to raise his game as he prepares for his first grand Slam Quarterfinal. Draper raced through his fourth Round Match last night against the czech Tomas Machac to set up his Quarter Final against the australian 10th Seed Alex De Minaur tomorrow. Incredibly proud. Its obviously one of the incredibly proud. Its obviously one of the biggest tournaments in the world of the biggest tournaments in the world. The following andys footsteps to make the quarterfinals since he footsteps to make the quarterfinals since he did in 2016, its a big achievement for me. But i think i Ust Achievement for me.

This will be his first opponent in the quarterfinal tomorrow, which will take place at around about 7pm uk time. If the second match of the afternoon against alex di minaer. He has not played there, but he has taken a few Opportunities Alex Di minaur. To look up to the giant stands, the roof is 60 metres above the court and needs to get an idea of matchday. The head to head record between the two is not encouraging in that de minaur has won all the matches, but draper was still a very much emerging. All the matches have been close. I dont think Theres Anything terrifying or psychologically damaging in the matches theyve had in the past. 50. Matches theyve had in the past. So, hes probably done well not to look to heart oh well, so eitherjannik Sinner Or Russell fuller, theyre looking forward to a. You have Taylor Fritz and diafoe, and you have.

The Racing Series started in 2019 and involves mixed gender teams in 50 foot catamarans. 37 women have taken part so far, including britains most successful female olympic Sailor Hannah mills, but none have been given the role of driver until now. It goes on from my first moment to develop, so i think maybe in setting a base for the other classes, i think there is a lot of secrets in sailing in general. I think theres very little. I think hopefully, this will set up an example for sailing. I think im really excited for some close racing. I think thats as good as it can get, and we can have a huge Learning Curve to understand these boats and just to get sailing, so i think it will take a little while. Stay with sailing. Qualifying for the Americas Cup continues off the coast of barcelona, but racing was cut short today by lightning. The defenders New Zealand were up against the italian luna rossa boat, when a bolt struck the sea very close to the two boats. Watch this.

You can keep across the rest of the competition for the competition for keep across the rest of the competition for the rest the evening on the Bbc Sport Website or your Bbc Sport app. From me, olly foster, and the rest of the team, have a great evening. Bye bye. Hello. Today has been a very mixed Affair Weather wise across the uk. Weve seen some spells of warm sunshine in place, but also some sharp showers. High pressure, this big area of High Pressure tantalisingly close to us in the atlantic, but not quite close enough to kill off these various frontal systems, these old Weather Fronts, if you like, just bringing Bands Of Clouds and bits and pieces of showery rain, some clear spells in between. It will be quite misty and murky in places. Not as muggy as last night across the southeast Corner 1a in london, maybe dropping all the way to four in the highlands. So, as we head on into tomorrow, we will still have those old Weather Fronts bringing areas of cloud, some showers which will break out through the day, some heavy ones across eastern england. This cluster of heavy showers drifting southwards across scotland, but there will be one or two showers elsewhere, some spells of sunshine, too, and it will be quite a cool, fresh day compared with some weve had recently. 14 20 degrees covers things for most of us. Now, into thursday, this little Weather System little Weather System here drops its way southwards and tends to combine with this broad area of low Pressure Spinning over continental europe, and that is going to bring some rain. In fact, could be quite a lot of rain that affects southern england, wales, the midlands as we go through the day on thursday. Further north, perhaps quite a lot of Cloud Feeding in, especially across eastern parts. Some spells of sunshine, particularly for Western Scotland and for Northern Ireland. Lighter winds further north and it will start to feel a bit more humid. That will continue into friday. Our low still swirling to the south, still bringing some outbreaks of rain, particularly across southern parts. But with the winds coming from the near continent where it has been very warm of late, it is going to feel really quite warm and humid as we end the week. So, friday looks like this outbreaks of rain, particularly across parts of southern england, the midlands, into wales further north. Areas of cloud, yes, but some spells of sunshine. And with that feed of humid air, we will see some pretty high temperatures on friday, widely into the 20s, Mid 20s for some including Western Scotland. Its 7pm in london. This is the World Today.
