[MUSIC PLAYING] Well, it is a very good morning to you from the sports team. And we saw it off with some cricket this morning, day one of the second test between South Africa and the West Indies will go down as one of the craziest days ever. 17 wickets fall on the first day. So South Africa betting first. I switched on. I think about an 1.5 into the session. I saw South Africa 86 for eight. And I was what the actual? But something happened at the back end with a Dame Pete and Nondre Burger to get us to 160 all out to East Indies Falls, Borla, Shamar, Joseph taking five wickets. In reply, the windies, 97 for seven. Vian Mulder picking up four for 18. So definitely, it's either there is something in the pitch or the batsmen are just horrible. And they would rather be out on the beach in Guyana and not be on the field. Because, yes, 17 wickets have fallen on the first day. Vian Mulder doing his thing with the ball he had this to say. But what he saw in terms of the pitch. The important thing is we had something to bowl to. And if you watch the way they bowl, there was a lot in the pitch. And I think we tried to get as much as we can out of it. I think we went through a little phase where we got a little bit greedy, me in particular. But I think generally, I'll just try to present the scene and get a little bit of movement of the pitch. I think a lot went my way today. So I just think I try to keep it simple. I didn't try to do anything magically. I tried to bowl a middle of the crease and try any top of the stumps. - Yeah, so hopefully today the pitch is better because we don't want a test match to finish. Within about three days, the West Indies still quite back in terms of the first inning score by South Africa. The West Indies will resume 97 for seven on that day two at four PM this afternoon, South African. Time, football transfer news. - (speaks in foreign language) has returned to Chippewa United on a three-year contract with a two-year option, MLS side LA Galaxy completed the signing of former British Dortmund mid-field remarkable race on a two-and-a-half year contract. And then we have the Premier League. It begins this weekend. The man's city, of course, bidding to continue there. So primacy in English football and absolutely making their top flight return. A lot of things have changed the season in the Premier League. I will give you all that information this morning. One of the other things is that the VAR system will have a higher bar for intervening than before. So the referee call means that the VAR should only intervene if they can see without any doubt on the pitch. The on-pitch official has made a clear mistake. So it means we're going to have less stoppages and there's going to be less marginal decisions. So if there's a clear obvious mistake, VAR will be involved. Hopefully, it makes for better watching. For these concentrated sports team,
