Your Guardian Sport weekend: England v India, Club World Cup, tennis and NBA
Saturday 11am (all times BST) England v India live Cricket Day two of the first Test gets under way with Rob Smyth and James Wallace your over-by-over-hosts. India are seeking a first series win in England since 2007, having been held to a 2-2 draw last time out, a garland their new red-ball skipper, Shubman Gill, ranks higher than going all the way in the Indian Premier League. 'You don't get many opportunities as a captain to be able to come to England and you get to have a crack at the IPL every year,' says one of the IPL's poster boys and title winner with Gujarat Giants in 2022. 'In my opinion winning a Test series in England, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa is bigger.' Ali Martin, Andy Bull and Simon Burnton are our reporting team at Headingley. Advertisement 11am Royal Ascot live Racing 'It's the biggest five days in our sport – our shop window,' says leading jockey William Buick of the glittering five days of Royal Ascot. The Queen Elizabeth II Jubilee Stakes (3.40pm) is the highlight of the sun-baked meeting's final day. Kevin Ryan's Inisherin was a brilliant winner of the Commonwealth Cup over the course and distance 12 months ago while French raider Lazzat won his first six starts for Jerome Reynier and having bolted up back over six furlongs at Chantilly has been snapped up by the powerful Wathnan Racing operation. One to watch is Aidan O'Brien's Australian recruit Storm Boy. Tony Paley keeps the updates flowing with Greg Wood our reporter in top hat and tails at the Berkshire course. Advertisement 2pm Queen's men's semi-finals Tennis Under a broiling sun in west London, conditions have been particularly gruelling as some of the world's leading players gear up for Wimbledon. Top seed and 2023 winner Carlos Alcaraz endured three hours and 23 energy-sapping minutes in beating compatriot Jaume Munar on Thursday. The match may have been two hours shorter than his five-set French Open final win over Jannik Sinner earlier this month but the five-time grand slam champion suffered as temperatures soared to 32C. After a 15th straight win, the longest winning run of his career so far, a near-exhausted Alcaraz admitted: 'It was a really tough battle.' Tumaini Carayol has all the action covered. Advertisement 3.15pm England XV v France XV Rugby union An unfamiliar England face France for Saturday's non-cap international. There are five uncapped names in Steve Borthwick's makeshift squad, with three set to start as call-ups to Andy Farrell's British & Irish Lions have have given the head coach the chance to experiment. The late addition of Jack van Poortvliet to the Lions party means there will be 14 players unavailable when England run out for the final time before the summer tour to Argentina and the United States. Michael Aylwin reports from Twickenham. 8pm Spain v England, U-21s Euros live Football Advertisement The European Under-21 Championship 2023 winners face a rematch with Spain, who they defeated to lift the trophy two years ago. But Lee Carsley's side approach the quarter-final in patchy form having followed up last Sunday's goalless draw with Slovenia with a disappointing 2-1 loss against Germany to round off the group stage. Slovenia's defeat to the Czech Republic in the other match in the group was enough to secure Carsley's side passage to the last-eight tie in Trnava, Slovakia. Will Unwin keeps the updates flowing while Ed Aarons reports. 8pm Jonathan Wilson Inside football Our columnist considers the cult of personality at the revamped Club World Cup – how the individual walk-outs at the start of matches offer further proof, if any were needed, that Fifa is failing to understand that football remains a team sport – just ask Paris Saint-Germain, who unlocked European success by ditching their superstars. Sunday 11am Advertisement England v India live Cricket Rob Smyth and Taha Hashim take up the over-by-over baton on day three at Headingley. Win against India in the coming weeks, then reclaim the Ashes in Australia and Ben Stokes would go down as one of his country's greatest skippers, but he is not ready to think in those terms. 'There's always a different buzz coming up against India and Australia in particular, purely because of how big those series are,' he says. 'Away from the dressing room, we know what these series mean compared to other ones. But defining a career as England captain isn't something that I really think about. If that's what I'm really bothered about, it's just completely and utterly selfish and that ain't me.' 11am Advertisement County Championship live Cricket Tanya Aldred helms our rolling blog and will no doubt be keeping a weather eye on Jofra Archer's exploits for Sussex against Durham. England's paceman has been beset by a litany of injury problems and played the last of his 13 Tests in February 2021. It is hoped he will make his first-class return, part of a plan that could lead to him being restored to Ben Stokes' squad at some point during a five-match series against India. There has been an understandable sense of caution about Archer's latest rehabilitation, which was further delayed by a broken thumb, but the bowler himself has made his own intentions clear – at one stage floating a hurried return in last month's one-off game against Zimbabwe. 1am Monday Advertisement Game 7 title-decider live NBA finals The Indiana Pacers stormed to a 108-91 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday to level the NBA finals at three games apiece and set up a decisive Game 7 in Oklahoma City in the early hours on Monday. David Lengel will be across all of the action with his live blog on the biggest night in the basketball season. 2am Monday Manchester City v Al Ain live Club World Cup In the small hours, our live coverage of the tournament continues at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta as the holders face Al Ain. City's new signing Tijjani Reijnders will be hoping to build on his impressive debut in the comfortable 2-0 win over Wydad Casablanca in Philadelphia on Wednesday. The Dutchman joined City from Milan last week in a deal worth an initial £46.5m as part of Pep Guardiola's rebuild in response to their disappointing 2024-25 season.

Watch Flamengo vs Chelsea for free with Club World Cup clash not on UK TV
With Chelsea set to take on Brazilian side Flamengo at the Club World Cup, here's the kick-off time, streaming details and Blues team news as Enzo Maresca prepares to make changes Chelsea continue their FIFA Club World Cup campaign against iconic Brazilian side Flamengo. The Blues made a winning start at the expanded 32-team tournament, which they qualified for thanks to winning the Champions League four years ago. Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez scored the goals as Enzo Maresca's side defeated Los Angeles FC in front of a sparse crowd in Atlanta. Neto opened the scoring just after the half-hour mark before £30million summer signing Liam Delap made his mark as a second-half substitute by setting up Fernandez to seal the points 11 minutes from time. Maresca was already looking ahead to Friday's clash with Flamengo in his post-match interview. He said: "We have to recover. We have a game in three days so we will see. We are going to prepare in the best way and for sure try to win." Addressing the impact of Delap, he added: "The good thing about Liam is he knows the way we want to play so the process is quite quick. Also, we gave a chance to Dario Essugo [who completed his move to Chelsea from Sporting Lisbon before the tournament], which is another player we have, so it's good for both of them." Here's the lowdown ahead of the game, including kick-off time, live streaming details and team news… What time does Flamengo vs Chelsea kick-off? The Group D game at the 67,000-capacity Lincoln Financial Field - home of the Philadelphia Eagles NFL team - kicks off at 2pm local time (7pm BST). Where can you watch Flamengo vs Chelsea? While Channel 5 has picked up the rights to select number of games from the tournament, that does not include Flamengo vs Chelsea. DAZN are the tournament's main rights holder, with the streaming service showing every game live for free in the UK. To take advantage, viewers must sign up to DAZN's Freemium service. By signing up to the platform, customers won't be subject to hidden costs and will be able to watch the games through the DAZN App via smart TV, phones, tablets and laptops. Ad-free coverage is available for £14.99. Channel 5 will broadcast Chelsea's final group match against Esperance de Tunis on Wednesday (2am BST). What is the Flamengo vs Chelsea team news? Following a long season, including a victorious run in the Europa Conference League, Maresca refreshingly has a fully fit 24-man squad to pick from. Raheem Sterling and Joao Felix were left at home following their loan spells at Arsenal and AC Milan, respectively. However, changes will be made to the starting XI. The Blues boss said: "No injuries at the moment, but because it's a tournament and we have a game every three days, we need to rotate players. "I'm not saying we're going to rotate 10 or 11 players each game, but we will need to rotate three, four or five players each game for sure. This is because we cannot play every three days with the same players. "The ones we tried to rotate a little bit in the first game are the ones we have tried to rotate since day one: Romeo [Lavia] and Reece [James]. We also gave some minutes off to Moi [Moises Caicedo], who has played the whole season, by bringing on Dario Essugo. We will try to continue on that."

How to watch Chelsea vs Flamengo on DAZN (it's free)
The key game of Group D, Chelsea vs Flamengo will almost certainly decide who tops the standings (and avoids Bayern Munich in the next round).

Araujo's goal was a thing of beauty, and it will be up to Moises Caicedo to ensure he doesn't get that amount of time and space at the Linc on Friday. Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez helped Chelsea see off LAFC, but the performance left a lot to be desired, with the likes of Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke never getting out of first gear. Liam Delap's assist on debut was the biggest positive for Enzo Maresca's men, though Romeo Lavia in particular seemed to love the FIFA Club World Cup's individual walkouts. Both teams expressed their shock that their opening games were played in near-empty stadiums, and with this clash scheduled for 2 p.m. local time at a 67,000-seater arena, they'd better get used to it.

How to watch Queen's Club Championship: Live stream HSBC tennis free from anywhere
The road to Wimbledon continues in the traditional way, as a selection of the world's best players head to London's historic Queen's Club to test their skills on the grass. The men's singles tournament has now reached the quarter-final stage, and we're explaining how to watch the Queen's Club Championship as the last eight vie to reach Sunday's final. With previous champions including Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Pete Sampras, and — with a record five titles — Sir Andy Murray, Queen's is the traditional but competitive appetizer for the two weeks at SW19. Carlos Alcaraz is seeded No. 1 and came into the tournament fresh off his French Open victory as the favorite to win his second title here, with hometown hero Jack Draper the man most likely to please UK tennis fans. You can see a full rundown of Friday's quarter-final matchups at the bottom of this article. While Alcaraz and Draper remain likely to clash in Sunday's final, plenty of other seeds have already perished. That includes first-round defeats for American trio Taylor Fritz, Ben Shelton, and Frances Tiafoe. And after 37-year-old Tatjana Maria shocked pundits with her win in the women's draw last week to become the first female Queen's champion in 52 years, it shows that anything can happen on these capricious grass courts. With Wimbledon starting on June 30, this is a chance to find out who is taking the best grass court form into 2025's third major.
