Third-day action between England and New Zealand in the final Cornhill
Insurance Test from Old Trafford. The last England Test series victory was against the New Zealanders on the England 1992 winter tour, but the last time they won at Old Trafford was against Australia in 1981. So far New Zealand have never beaten England at

1.30 Wimbledon
The Women's Singles final a year ago lived up to the drama of the occasion.
Steffi Graf seemed beaten when underdog Jana Novotna took a 4-1 lead in the deciding set, but Graf found another gear and Novotna crumbled. Graf returned to Wimbledon this year as top seed - and favourite to take a record first prize of E3 0,000. But she was knocked out of the competition in the first round by unseeded Texan Lori McNeil , who beat the defending champion in straight sets.
The Wimbledon fortnight marks a sentimental farewell to Martina
Navratilova, chasing a dream tenth singles title in what she has decreed to be her last year at the top level.
John Barrett and Virginia Wade describe the live Centre Court action.
