:00:28. > :00:32.para-athletes going for gold in two sports. And get ready for cricket's

:00:33. > :00:36.fiercest rivalry. That is all to come but first let's look at the

:00:37. > :00:39.other sporting headlines. Formula 1's controversial qualifying could

:00:40. > :00:43.be short lived, Lewis Hamilton took pole position for tomorrow's season

:00:44. > :00:47.opener but the sport's bosses say the animation format may be changed

:00:48. > :00:52.before the next race. Joe Root is being held as England's most

:00:53. > :00:56.complete batsman ever. Root hit a match-winning innings in the World

:00:57. > :01:00.T20 victory over South Africa. His captain Eoin Morgan also described

:01:01. > :01:05.him as incredible. And Leicester's great Premier League title dream is

:01:06. > :01:08.edging ever closer. Victory at a struggling Crystal Palace today

:01:09. > :01:10.would put them eight points clear at the top of the table.

:01:11. > :01:14.So, what a weekend of sport and it's only going to get better.

:01:15. > :01:17.Let's talk rugby union because it's Super Saturday as the Six Nations

:01:18. > :01:23.England's women missed out on the title, losing

:01:24. > :01:28.Well, England have already won the Championship,

:01:29. > :01:30.they're also playing France and our man in Paris

:01:31. > :01:38.So, Olly, can England go all the way and win the Grand Slam

:01:39. > :01:40.or are the French going to spoil the party?

:01:41. > :01:47.They would love to do that. Good afternoon, Lizzie. It's been a

:01:48. > :01:51.perfect start for Eddie Jones. The triple Crown secured last weekend,

:01:52. > :01:56.and of course the title. But now it's all about the Grand Slam. And

:01:57. > :02:00.for England they don't come around very often. Let's bring in a man who

:02:01. > :02:05.has won three of them, Jeremy Guscott, thank you for joining us on

:02:06. > :02:09.Saturday Sportsday. 13 years ago, that great World Cup winning side,

:02:10. > :02:13.2003, the last time England won a Grand Slam. Why has it taken this

:02:14. > :02:17.long? Will they win it, getting ahead of ourselves!

:02:18. > :02:21.They have had opportunities. Most of those have been away from home, 2003

:02:22. > :02:27.they won under Martin Johnson and Clive Woodward and in Dublin.

:02:28. > :02:31.Subsequently they've gone to places like millennium in Dublin and it's

:02:32. > :02:35.been successful. The Grand Slam is I was part of, for those three games

:02:36. > :02:38.we won at Twickenham it was much more at home, we were used to it,

:02:39. > :02:43.going away is hard and that is what they must do today. But Eddie has

:02:44. > :02:46.got themselves in a good place for sub seems to take the heat off them,

:02:47. > :02:49.giving us the emission to talk about him and what he's saying rather than

:02:50. > :02:52.focusing on the side and today they have a great opportunity to carry on

:02:53. > :02:56.playing the rugby they have been because that has been good enough to

:02:57. > :03:00.win. What do you think he's done? They have not been massive changes

:03:01. > :03:04.of personnel? He has got their confidence going and synced with

:03:05. > :03:10.them. I liked the quote with Mako Vunipola, he was asked if he was

:03:11. > :03:13.English or Tongan, he said play rugby like a Tongan. He's gone out

:03:14. > :03:16.there and seen professional. Billy is close to being the man of the

:03:17. > :03:19.torment with his magnificent runs and his all-round game which has

:03:20. > :03:22.been brilliant. What I loved about England is the way they have

:03:23. > :03:26.attacked, playing heads up rugby, what is in front of them, good

:03:27. > :03:29.communication, looking at the space and attacking it.

:03:30. > :03:34.Have scored fantastic tries. But they have blown it more often than

:03:35. > :03:37.not. Five times they have been at this stage in the Six Nations

:03:38. > :03:39.history and blown it for times and the French would just love to spoil

:03:40. > :03:42.it. They would but France are not in a

:03:43. > :03:45.good place, look at how well Eddie has come in and done what he did

:03:46. > :03:51.with England, conversely Guy Noves has not done the same with France. I

:03:52. > :03:56.think they will be relaxed, they won it already, go on and get the Grand

:03:57. > :04:00.Slam. Jeremy Guscott, thank you. The other two matches, Wales against

:04:01. > :04:04.Italy, Ireland against Scotland. One team of four could still finish

:04:05. > :04:06.second but it is really all about the Grand Slam.

:04:07. > :04:09.STUDIO: Thank you, Olly Foster. Now, we often hear of para

:04:10. > :04:12.athletes who switch sports - think Dame Sarah Storey

:04:13. > :04:14.who famously moved from the pool But very few continue to compete

:04:15. > :04:18.in both at the highest level. Stuart Pollitt went

:04:19. > :04:20.to meet Kadeena Cox, a runner and a cyclist at the top

:04:21. > :04:37.of both sports and hoping she can go Kadeena Cox is pushing the

:04:38. > :04:40.boundaries of Paris bought. She has multiple sclerosis, a fatiguing

:04:41. > :04:44.condition, yet her winter has been spent either on the cycling track or

:04:45. > :04:48.the running track. I do two days on the bike and two days on the

:04:49. > :04:52.athletics track and two times in the gym. I've got two rest days and I

:04:53. > :04:58.spend that time sleeping a lot of the time because I'm shattered.

:04:59. > :05:03.Everyone knows my brother thinks I'm crazy. My sister loves it, they are

:05:04. > :05:07.just worried I'm going to stretch myself too much. Kadeena Cox won the

:05:08. > :05:11.200 metres gold in Doha in the World Athletics Championships. Now her

:05:12. > :05:16.quest to double up in Rio has arrived in Italy near the gaps of --

:05:17. > :05:22.bags of Lake Garda as she takes part in her first-ever World Track

:05:23. > :05:27.Cycling Championships. Despite being moved to a category for less

:05:28. > :05:30.impaired riders, on the evil of her race Kadeena Cox produced a

:05:31. > :05:35.gold-medal ride and a world record. -- on the eve. Has it given you

:05:36. > :05:39.confidence to pursue both sports up to September?

:05:40. > :05:43.Yes, definitely. I am in the kind of shape I need to be in to go out

:05:44. > :05:47.there and do something special. Team-mate Dame Sarah Storey, a

:05:48. > :05:51.veteran of two Parolo exports herself, believes Kadeena Cox's

:05:52. > :05:53.achievements can inspire. She absolutely is all ready

:05:54. > :05:57.spreading that word and it's going to be fantastic to see that. The

:05:58. > :06:01.time to do that is after the games when the medals have been won.

:06:02. > :06:06.I want to do something no one else has done. Getting a couple of medals

:06:07. > :06:07.would be fun. Kadeena Cox's quest to be number one in two sports is

:06:08. > :06:10.certainly gathering pace. When it comes to sporting rivalries

:06:11. > :06:15.they don't get much bigger or fiercer than India

:06:16. > :06:18.versus Pakistan. The two great cricketing nations

:06:19. > :06:21.are going head to head in a just over an hour's time

:06:22. > :06:24.at the World T20. And Joe Wilson is keeping a keen eye

:06:25. > :06:28.on it for the BBC in Kolkata. The stadium behind me

:06:29. > :06:32.is the oldest and the Capacity, 66,000 these days,

:06:33. > :06:35.it's nowhere near big Most of the people congregating

:06:36. > :06:41.near the ground this afternoon I don't think

:06:42. > :06:43.have a ticket, unless they've got They just want to feel

:06:44. > :06:47.that they are part Which, of course, India

:06:48. > :06:51.versus Pakistan, is more As explained by India's

:06:52. > :06:56.spin bowler R Ashwin. It's very hard to put a finger

:06:57. > :07:00.on and say how huge it is. It's probably bigger

:07:01. > :07:04.than the Ashes is. So as far as Indians go

:07:05. > :07:06.and the Pakistanis go, I don't think they watch this game

:07:07. > :07:09.as a game of cricket, There are more police officers

:07:10. > :07:14.arriving by the minute I'm going to be a little bit careful

:07:15. > :07:19.of that gentleman walking across. days to prepare for this

:07:20. > :07:24.match. It was shifted to this part

:07:25. > :07:28.of India at the last minute. 2,500 police officers

:07:29. > :07:30.are arriving, some of them by bus, although

:07:31. > :07:32.that one is empty. Pakistan are basically

:07:33. > :07:37.going from the hotel to the ground They have played one

:07:38. > :07:40.match in the tournament And it has certainly

:07:41. > :07:45.given their coach a good feeling We were very welcome, you know,

:07:46. > :07:50.the crowd was really behind I'm sure it's not going to be

:07:51. > :07:55.behind us against India. But that's the positive

:07:56. > :07:57.we are going to take. We are going to try to

:07:58. > :08:00.play the best cricket. Remember, India lost their first

:08:01. > :08:02.game in this World T20 It caused a huge shock

:08:03. > :08:06.around the country. I still think they are

:08:07. > :08:09.favourites for this match. Remember, whenever

:08:10. > :08:11.India and Pakistan have played each other in a World Cup

:08:12. > :08:14.in an ICC competition It might just depend, though,

:08:15. > :08:17.whether they are inspired today by this occasion,

:08:18. > :08:29.or intimidated by it. They have had some heavy rain since

:08:30. > :08:32.Joe sent the report so the match could be delayed, you will have to

:08:33. > :08:34.keep across the BBC's website to find out what happened.

:08:35. > :08:36.That's almost it, just a quick score update

:08:37. > :08:37.from the lunchtime kick off between Everton

:08:38. > :08:41.Danny Welbeck has scored for Arsenal, they are leading 1-0.

:08:42. > :08:43.And there's plenty more sport here on BBC One,

:08:44. > :08:45.with the World Indoor Athletics and the Six Nations

:08:46. > :09:11.But from all of us on Saturday Sportsday,

:09:12. > :09:15.Scotland head to Ireland after back-to-back victories.
