Back in the fold after a broken arm, the veteran back has the high-ball skills to take the aerial tactic to another level It’s funny how things have come full circle for Elliot Daly. The first time he played a Test against Argentina he lasted barely five minutes before being shown a <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/nov/26/england-argentina-autumn-internationals-match-report">red card for a misjudged tackle</a> on a still airborne opponent. And now, nine years on, to whom have England turned to help discomfort the Pumas aerially? None other than <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/nov/19/daly-and-slade-recalled-as-borthwick-shakes-up-england-for-argentina-test">wing commander Daly</a>.Much has changed, however, since that distant sending off at Twickenham in November 2016 on what was only his third start for England. Daly is now a vastly experienced international with 73 caps and the game also looks significantly different courtesy of the crackdown on “escorts” protecting the catcher, which has put an even greater emphasis on high-ball expertise. <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2025/nov/20/england-elliot-daly-primed-argentina-autumn-nations-series-rugby-union">Continue reading...</a>

تأثرت استعدادات إنجلترا لكأس العالم T20 المقبلة بسبب تأخيرات في تأشيرات اللاعبين السبينر أديل راشد وريهان أحمد، اللذين لهما أصول باكستانية. لم يصدر الحكومة الهندية بعد تأشيراتهم، مما يجعل من غير المحتمل أن يسافروا مع بقية الفريق لمباريات الإحماء في سريلانكا هذا الأسبوع.

Los preparativos de Inglaterra para la próxima Copa del Mundo T20 se han visto interrumpidos debido a retrasos en la obtención de visados para los spinners Adil Rashid y Rehan Ahmed, ambos de ascendencia paquistaní. El gobierno indio aún no ha emitido sus visados, lo que hace poco probable que viajen con el resto del equipo para los partidos de calentamiento en Sri Lanka este fin de semana.
