12.00, 1.35 Cricket: Second Test
Live action from Headingley of the Second Test between England and Pakistan. England entered this match trying to overturn a 1-0 deficit after a disappointing performance at Lord's ended in a 164-run defeat. Since the last series victory over Pakistan -14 years ago - England have registered just one win over the tourists.
Pakistan, having regrouped since the winter troubles of the one-day World Cup, are again wreaking havoc with a bowling attack led by the experienced and explosive pairing of captain Wasim Akram and Waqar Younis. However, England have, under captain Mike Atherton, also re-emerged this summer with a morale-boosting series triumph over India. Commentary from Richie Benaud , Geoffrey Boycott , David Gower , Asif Iqbal and Tony Lewis. Highlights on BBC1 at 11.35pm.

1.05 Yachting
Action from the Ultra 30 series. Last year, it was won by Russell Peters, who, in an exciting finale, just managed to edge out favourite and five-times champion Lawrie Smith. Peters will be determined to retain his title in his fifth Ultra 30 series. Commentary by Malcolm McKeag and Helen Rollason.
