been following the action. out of the corner of my eye, i see england losing rory burns. the one thing england wanted to do was get to the close of play without losing a wicket but rory burns has gone for a wicket but rory burns has gone for a dog in the very first over. england chasing this notional target of 383 but really it is all about survival. can they survive until close of play tomorrow and get a draw? it is the worst possible start for them and i can tell you it has got even worse. joe route has been bolts of england have lost two wickets already in the opening minutes of their second innings. that tall order is looking even taller by every passing minute. —— joe route. as far as the first innings, it seemed an awful long time ago, england resumed at the start of the day looking to increase their first start of the day looking to increase theirfirst innings start of the day looking to increase their first innings total but ben stokes their first innings total but ben sto kes we nt their first innings total but ben stokes went for 26 and it really but once he went, england

after australia took three late wickets on day three of the fourth ashes test. rory burns, joe root and jason roy all fell in quick succession to leave england 200 for five in theirfirst innings. still 297 runs behind in a match they can't afford to lose if they want to win back the ashes. our sports correspondent andy swiss was watching at old trafford. for much of the day england's batsmen battled well, but the day has ended with australia still very much in control. after a long rain delay, england fans had plenty to cheer at first, century stand between rory burns and joe route, but eventually burns went for 81, caught at slip, and then the wicked started to tumble. joe root soon followed, lbw a71. that brought ben stokes to the wicked, to a huge ovation from england fans. of course, he was the hero of the last test at headingley. but he soon lost his batting partner, jason roy, clea n his batting partner, jason roy, clean bowled byjosh hazelwood, just before the close. so england five wickets down. still with a huge amount of work to do. while stokes is still there, the fans wi

secure a draw but they got off to the worst possible start, as rory burns and thenjoe possible start, as rory burns and then joe root went possible start, as rory burns and thenjoe root went in the very first over. they eventually finished the day just two wickets over. they eventually finished the dayjust two wickets down but they know they will need to bat out the whole of the final day if they are to secure a draw. if they cannot do that, then australia will retain the ashes. let's bring you up to date with the latest round of euro 2020 qualfiers. england captain harry kane scored a hat—trick in their 4—0 win over bulgaria, which took them back to the top of their group, above kosovo, who beat the czech republic. also wins for ukraine and iceland — the other games are well into the second half. the final of the women's singles at the us open is under way. serena williams is going for a record—equalling 24th grand slam. she's up against teenager bianca andreescu, who's impressed on route to her first major final. let's speak david law, who's commentating on the match for the bb

morning, they lost an early wicket, butjoe root and rory burns are steadily building a partnership as england look to avoid the defeat that would see australia retain the urn. thank you very much. and nick has got all the weather. a rather brooding picture you present. and it will all clear for the weekend. the weather getting into the weekend mood as it settles down, just in time is for a couple of days off and we ta ke time is for a couple of days off and we take a look at what hurricane dorian is doing to the usa. what if any impact it will have on the uk. coming up. also coming up- sir philip green's top empire is in trouble after plunging a £170 million loss last year. opposition parties in parliament have agreed to stop borisjohnson holding an election until brexit has been delayed beyond the 31st of october. mps vote again on monday on whether voters should go back to the polls. today the so—called rebel alliance — including labour and the snp — decided to either oppose an early election or to abstain in the vote. some mps say that means an election is now unlikely befor

contention to open the batting alongside rory burns, who proved himself very capable during the series. england will also have a new coach installed in time for that next international cricket in new zealand, so this team could really start to be taking shape and starting to get bedded in by the time they go to south africa for the next major tour, which sta rts for the next major tour, which starts on boxing day in centurion. joe lenski. next to that mic drop moment that sealed the solheim cup for europe at the end of a thrilling three days where the two teams could barely be separated, it came down to the final putt of the final pair in the final putt of the final pair in the singles at gleneagles, sunk by suzann pettersen, the swedish vetera n suzann pettersen, the swedish veteran immediately announcing her retirement from professional golf. it was enough for that one—point victory. the americans were strong favourites having won the last two tournaments of corso how significant is it for women's golf in europe that the trophy changed hands? beth allen a few times when on the ladi

on which players stay or go moving forward? rory burns and joe denley finished as england's openers. burns has shown he can be relied on, batting average of 39, only ben stokes is a better average than that. joe denley made 94 in that test. even at the age of 33, coming into this team. who else might be sticking around? jack leach came infor might be sticking around? jack leach came in for the second test, he has found hero status already, he has been cheered as a batsman, he contributed 12 wickets across this series with best figures of 4—49 in that fifth test. on the flip side, who is not —— who has not had such a good series? jason roy averaged just 13 across the four tests he played in. he was so vital for england at the world cup, but struggled as a test batsmen. moeen ali may need some time away is in the's spinners, played in the first test, but jack leach has moved ahead, and talk around jonny bairstow, such a talisman for england as a one—day player, only made 1/2—century across the series and there are other options at wicketkeeper who may be in line to challenge

lot better than losing it 3—1. england were asked to bat first. rory burns got the ball rolling. maybe australia have been the better team in the ashes, but maybe england could be the better team today — that's what they were hoping. joe denly opening the batting. well, he was still going, which was more thanjason roy, who'd been dropped for this match. it is tough to feel secure in test cricket. burns still watching, still thinking, and sometimes leaving. that's fine. butjoe denly couldn't help it. an edge, a catch, gone for 14. but look at thejuggling. steve smith even makes his catches last as long as possible! shane was trying to prolong his gum. well, bubbles always burst eventually. there was england's captain. joe root would be encouraged by the crowd for any run, anything, but the biggest roars came for australia's fielder. root virtually placed the ball in peter siddle's hands, and down. now this is the kind of juggling act that appeals to this particular circus. no hiding place. they even spotted it on the rooftops. australia's captain could hardly criticise because, minute

nor rory burns have reached the fame of ben stokes, for example, but australia's bowlers have certainly learned to respect burns. there has been enough of this to ensure that. and denly? well, that's a side of his batting that seemed to shock australia. england had reached 5a. it was all going so well. and then burns was caught and gone. but australia were a long way behind. there were some urgent discussions with the umpire. now, was that a team under pressure we were watching? and how was your mood seeing this? joe root was batting, and he certainly seemed to enjoy it. but the mood of a batsman can change instantly. joe denly in sudden pain. his captain offered sympathy. sort of. bravery and a bit of luck, that's all part of the game. denly probably earned his good fortune as the ball missed the stumps and ran towards the boundary. of course, australia's captain would have disagreed. and those expressions changed once again just and those expressions changed once againjust before and those expressions changed once again just before lunch becausejoe root was dismissed but eng

just being caught out. england lost their openers joe root and rory burns for ducks late on yesterday. they narrowly avoided the follow—on but england will have to do well today with the bat — the aussie's have a 382 run lead and are just 7 wickets away from retaining the urn. there was a big shock at the us open when history was made in the women's final — but not in the way many expected. serena williams failed in her bid for a record—equalling 24th grand slam title, losing in the final to bianca andreescu 6—3, 7—5. andreescu is the first canadian to win a grand slam. it's the fourth major final in a row that williams has lost. it's really hard right now to take that moment in and to say, "you did ok," because i don't believe i did, you know? i believe i could have played better. i believe i could have done more. i believe i could have just been a better... been more serena today. honestly i don't think serena showed up and i have to kind of figure out how to get her to show up in grand slam finals. great britain has a champion at the us open. jamie murray and bethanie m

cricket. it ain't over till the oval. fifth test, over the road. rory burns again displayed deep concentration and good judgement — that's it. a7, he made. joe denly was the first english batsman to fall. steve smith the fielder. well, he even makes his catches last as long as possible. he held on. captainjoe root was dropped three times before he got to 50. just watch them. siddle's chance was the simplest, although tim paine had the gloves to help him. commentator: oh, down again. still no good. and look who dropped this one — yeah, that is steve smith. well, good fortune, but when root got to 57, enter pat cummins. no fielder required. australia had changed their team for this test, picked mitchell marsh. he took four wickets, dismissing bairstow like that and woakes like this. england soon eight wickets down and it seemed like another weary day at the ashes office. but here's the thing. aren't the australians tired too? and as day became evening, jos buttler started hitting. not only did buttler end the day like this, he'll be back in the morning to resume. england 271—

possible start losing opener rory burns third ball. and then captainjoe root was also out for a duck. pat cummins rewarded for some excellent bowling this match. here is the scorecard. england need 365 runs to win, not something anybody genuinely expects to happen. more hopefully, there remaining players could bat all day tomorrow, therefore drawing and avoiding defeat and the cds would go to a decider at the oval defeat and the cds would go to a decider at the 0valfor defeat and the cds would go to a decider at the oval for the final test on thursday. it was all too easy for england this evening at wembley. captain harry kane scored a hat trick, as they cruised to a four zero win over bulgaria. gareth southgate‘s side have won every match in their euro 2020 group. and look odds on to qualify for next year's competition. 0ur correspondent david 0rnstein is there for us. a routine win for england. it was. three wins out of three with five to go, england in firm control of their group. hurtling towards another major tournament. that's now 42 consecutive matches unbeaten in the w

century stand between rory burns and joe root, but eventually burns went to 81, caught at slip, and then the wickets started to tumble. joe root soon followed lbw 471, that brought ben stokes to the wicket, a huge ovation from the england fans, he was the hero of the last test at headingley. but he soon lost his batting partner jason roy, clean bold byjosh hazlewood, just before the close. england five wickets down, but still with a huge amount of work to do. while stokes is still there the fans believe anything is possible, but they know they face a real battle to save this match and save their ashes hopes. we needed a couple of wickets at the end there, but i think it set out pretty clear for us in terms of, there is a follow—on to get past and then we have to get as close as we can. we are only a couple of partnerships away from that, and personally we have the right to be sitting here with three figures, but i thought how we played, i was pretty ha p py i thought how we played, i was pretty happy with it. england have thrashed italy 37—0 at stjames' park in their last warm—up g

the day. final wicket to four. owed so much to rory burns. he did had to come out and bat again as england's opener and survived a tricky session before the close of play. they will resume in the morning. nine without loss in the second innings so that gives them a lead of 78 which standing here right now feel significant. thank you very much. sir dave brailsford has revealed he's had surgery for prostate cancer. the team ineos principal, who's 55, was diagnosed with the disease injuly and will find out tomorrow if the surgery he had last month has been successful. brailsford oversaw team gb‘s domination of track cycling at the 2008 and 2012 olympics and has led a team that has produced seven tour de france winners in the last eight years. let's bring you up to date with some of the other stories we've been covering today at the bbc sport centre. staying with cycling, slovenia‘s primoz roglich recovered from a crash on stage 19 of the vuelta a espana to finish tenth and retain his overall lead with just one decisive stage to go. french rider remi cavagna claimed the biggest win

. who dropped joe root now? steve smith. some catches are unmissable, rory burns battled hard to 47 when he looped the ball to a sad conclusion. for him anyway. wherever ben stokes meant to hit this, the outcome was straight to nathan lyon. stokes was furious with himself, and in the dressing room to applaud his captain. joe route 250 and a hint of satisfaction. perhaps sensed this was looming. flattened by cummings, no catches required. australia took control, they picked marsh for this match, and he got ben stokes out like this. just another day in the ashes office. let's remember, the australians must be tired too and in the last few minutes jos buttler be tired too and in the last few minutesjos buttler has played some big shots. england 271—8, sophie, just maybe there is some life in the ashes yet. joe, thank you. and some good weather for the ashes, darren? yes, and this picture was taken earlier on today at the oval. blue skies at times, not all the i mind you. further west in wales it has been much cloudier and cooler, and we have rain and drizzle for wales and northern en

all forms of the game. rory burns has been given just a test contract but archer's inclusion was never in doubt. i thinkjofra is capable of anything. i chatted with his dad at the oval and he thought he would hit 100 mph next year and i said i would take that! but it's important we look after him, it's not easy to bowl that pace consistently, and he is a fine asset for the team. i'll have more for you in the next hour. let's get more on our top story now that millions we have been from hearing from the brexit secretary, stephen barclay, this is what he had to say a few minutes ago. we had serious detailed discussions today with michel barnier and his team. discussions today with michel barnierand his team. a discussions today with michel barnier and his team. a common purpose, we both want a deal and a very clear message has been given by the president and jean—claude juncker. the meeting overran which signals a fact that we were getting into the detail and would have further details next week. jean—claude juncker has told further details next week. jean—claudejuncker has t
