Jos Buttler aims to follow Joe Root's lead and thrive as an ex-England captain
Jos Buttler is looking to Joe Root for inspiration as he looks to flourish in his 'new phase' as a former England captain. Buttler stepped down as leader of England's white-ball team earlier this year after two disappointing World Cup campaigns, passing the baton to Harry Brook over the summer. With his 35th birthday just around the corner, he could easily have walked away entirely in pursuit of guaranteed riches as a full-time franchise freelancer. But he remains committed to following the lead of Root, who has scored 14 hundreds and averaged 58 since being replaced as Test skipper by Ben Stokes. 'It's not that I wasn't enjoying my cricket before, but I obviously wasn't enjoying the way it was going,' he told the PA news agency. 'Part of the challenge of cricket is trying to come through that, being resilient and getting out the other end. 'I've had a bit of time and space and I do feel like I have a better understanding now of where I was as a player and captain. I'm a bit more relaxed and enjoying my cricket again. I do feel like I'm in a new phase of my career. 'Now that I'm not captain anymore it's about me playing the best I can for the team. I love playing for England, it's an honour, and I want to do as much as I can. 'Rooty has been a massive inspiration in that, seeing the impact I can have as a senior player. He's gone to some amazing new levels and he knows what it's like to not be captain any more and still give back to the team. That's the opportunity that is out there for me. Joe's a good mate of mine and has been really helpful in making that transition.' Buttler, who is the marquee player for Manchester Originals in the Hundred, was speaking at the unveiling of Compare the Market's new mural in the city, bearing his likeness alongside Southern Brave's Chris Jordan, Emma Lamb of Birmingham Phoenix and three aspiring juniors from the Chance to Shine street cricket programme. The tournament is in its final year before the arrival of eight new investment groups, who are set to pay a combined £520million for a seat at the table. Four teams will be tied to groups involved with Indian Premier League franchises and Buttler, arguably the Englishman most associated with that competition, expects big things. 'The level of investment is mindblowing. It's going to be the next evolution of the Hundred,' he said. 'The IPL is enormous, it's a different beast, and the owners will be bringing new ideas, new expertise and they will want to really push things to be the best they can be. 'The calibre of people getting involved, from the IPL to the tech giants, is awesome. It's going to be a really exciting time for English cricket, on and off the field.' :: Jos Buttler was speaking at the unveiling of a new mural commissioned by principal partner of The Hundred, Compare the Market in partnership with the children's charity, Chance to Shine.

Fall in viewers for Wallace and Torode's last MasterChef
Just under two million people tuned into the first episode of MasterChef's new series, a fall compared with last year, after a rocky period for the show in which both of its presenters were 2.7 million viewers watched last year's launch show. However, the figures are hard to compare, due to a number of factors, including the episodes going out at different times of the Wallace and John Torode were both sacked last month after a report into conduct on the cooking show upheld allegations against BBC decided to still show this year's amateur series - filmed before they were sacked - saying it was "the right thing to do" for the chefs who took part. But it faced a backlash from some women who came forward, as well as from the broadcast union Bectu who said showing the episodes could be 'triggering' for people who had had complaints returns with sacked hosts but without their jokesThe first three episodes were released on iPlayer on Wednesday morning, with the series opener broadcast on BBC One at 20:00 to overnight figures, last night's launch had 1.96m viewers, compared with last year's launch show which had 2.73m decline should be seen against a backdrop in which all linear TV is falling year on year's first episode went out earlier in the evening, and on a bank holiday. It also went out in April, whereas this year's went out in August - a month which tends to have fewer the day MasterChef launched in 2024, the highest rated programme was the regional news with 3.7 million night's highest rated programme was the regional news, with three million people tuning in, meaning its figures have fallen roughly the same amount as MasterChef's. 'They have edited out the jokes' Ahead of the new series airing, there had been speculation that the new episodes might be re-edited to reduce the presence of Wallace and presenters appear from the outset and throughout the episodes, but there appear to be fewer jokes than usual and less chat between them and the Daily Star's front page highlights criticism of the new series, saying heavy editing after the presenters were sacked for misconduct has left the show awkward and a "shambles".In a review, The Telegraph's critic Ed Cumming wrote: "To show how seriously the BBC takes the allegations against the presenters, they have edited out their jokes." The resulting series "lacks pizzazz", he Standard's Vicky Jessop wrote: "No jokes here – the production team presumably being terrified that anything either of them says would be taken the wrong way."The first episode "left a slightly sour taste in the mouth", she added - a sentiment echoed by the Independent's Nick Hilton, who wrote that the series is "tinged with a strange, bitter aftertaste".Speaking to BBC Breakfast, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy said as a viewer, she "certainly won't be watching it", but that it wasn't her place to tell broadcasters what they could or couldn't former Celebrity MasterChef contestant Kirsty Wark - who first came forward to BBC News with claims against Wallace - suggested the BBC could have refilmed the series without the two BBC previously said it had not been "an easy decision" to run the series, adding that there was "widespread support" among the chefs for it going ahead. Upheld complaints The controversy over MasterChef started last year, when BBC News first revealed claims of misconduct against July, a report by the show's production company Banijay revealed that 83 complaints had been made against Wallace with more than 40 upheld, including one of unwelcome physical contact and another three of being in a state of has insisted he was cleared of "the most serious and sensational allegations".In a recent interview with The Sun, he said he was "so sorry" to anyone he hurt, but insisted that he was "not a groper, a sex pest or a flasher".The upheld complaint against Torode related to a severely offensive racist term allegedly used on the set of MasterChef in presenter said he had "no recollection" of it and that any racist language is "wholly unacceptable".Wallace will be replaced by Irish chef Anna Haugh in the final episodes of the new series, because the allegations against him first emerged during filming in November.

I lost 9kgs without fat jabs or restricting what I ate after trying every diet under the sun – here's how
INFLUENCER Grace Beverley has lifted the lid on how she lost 9kg without giving up food she loved or turning to fat jabs. In a no-nonsense TikTok, the entrepreneur, best known for her lifestyle content, admitted she'd spent years trying to get her body to a place where she felt good. 3 3 And now, after months of small changes, she's lost 20lbs, all without skipping meals, starving herself, or ever falling below 1,750 calories a day. She said in her video: 'I've tried every diet. I thought it was going to be really difficult because I already ate pretty healthily. "But what actually made the difference was completely changing how I approached food and fitness.' With her wedding fast approaching, Grace decided it was time to focus on her weight more intentionally. But she wasn't prepared to go to unhealthy extremes or do anything that would leave her miserable. Instead, she mapped out a slow and steady plan and it worked. Unlike many celebs and influencers, she avoided turning to appetite-suppressing injections like Ozempic or Mounjaro. At just 5ft 3 and living with PCOS and insulin resistance, she knew her body might not respond like everyone else's and that fast fixes weren't the way forward. Instead, she started by simply focusing on how to remove 'food noise' , the endless internal chatter about what to eat, when, and how much she ate. Meal prep The first thing she did was schedule meals through meal prepping. Grace signed up to a UK meal prep service called Fresh Fitness Food. I was size 22 eating FIVE takeaways a week - now I'm told I look like Gemma Owen after 8st weight loss without jabs She said it made her life easier as she stopped "thinking about food 24/7." Instead of obsessing over every meal, calorie or craving, her meals were delivered daily, prepped to match her macros. No more last-minute decisions. No more mindless snacking. And no more making excuses. Grace says this alone helped her eat more whole foods and cut down on ultra-processed options, especially during busy office days when it's easy to grab a packet of crisps or a shop-bought sandwich. And while meal prep services can be pricey, she says you can do it yourself by bulk-prepping meals every weekend. No crash dieting Another thing Grace did differently this time was she didn't crash into a calorie deficit. Where most people go straight to a harsh diet of 1,200 calories or less, she started gently. Grace said she was simply eating "better food, fewer processed ingredients", and moving her body more. Her calorie intake was set to match her TDEE which is basically the number of calories her body burns in a day. She only ever adjusted it by 50 calories at a time, depending on whether the scales budged. 'I never dropped 200 or 300 overnight. That just wrecks your metabolism. You burn out, you lose muscle, and you'll feel awful,' she warned. And crucially, she gave herself time. Grace began the process a full year ahead of her wedding. From September to February, she didn't think about weight loss at all, just getting healthier. It wasn't until months later that she focused more on aesthetics. Three workouts a week Grace also restructured how she trained. And while you might think she was smashing daily gym sessions, the reality was the opposite. Rather than forcing herself into punishing cardio or trying to out-run her food, she built up gradually. And she always had a 'backup workout' to fall back on. She said on days she couldn't face the gym, she would do a 12-3-30 treadmill walk at home, or a short follow-along class online. The 12-2-30 method is where you set the treadmill to incline 12, on speed 3 and speed walk for 30 minutes. She stresses to always keep a "do-able" option. She says this 'better vs best' mindset helped her stay consistent without falling into all-or-nothing thinking. The 5 best exercises to lose weight By Lucy Gornall, personal trainer and health journalist EXERCISE can be intimidating and hard to devote yourself to. So how do you find the right workout for you? As a PT and fitness journalist, I've tried everything. I've taken part in endless fitness competitions, marathons and I maintain a regime of runs, strength training and Pilates. Fitness is so entrenched in my life, I stick to it even at Christmas! The key is finding an activity you love that can become a habit. My top five forms of exercise, especially if you're trying to lose weight, are: Walking Running Pilates High-intensity interval training (HIIT) Strength training Rules that actually worked Another surprising thing that helped was setting herself small, non-negotiable rules. Grace said these kept her sane. Instead of calorie-counting obsessively or banning whole food groups, she set structure for her weekdays: three meals, one snack, and a fun drink. She also stopped giving in to 'office snacks' – the free doughnuts or leftover cake that's always lying around – unless she really wanted them. On weekends, she allowed herself to be more relaxed but if she found herself slipping into binge-eating patterns, she saw it as a red flag that something was too restrictive. She said it's "not about cutting everything out" but rather being consistent enough to feel "in control without being miserable'. The most surprising part was Grace barely did cardio at all. Instead, she focused on resistance training, lifting weights, building muscle and improving her overall body composition. Only in the final few weeks before her wedding did she add more cardio into her week and even then, it was gentle. Now, months into her journey and just weeks out from her wedding, Grace says she feels stronger, happier and more confident in her body, without having to punish it. In an update video Grace said she has officially lost 20Ibs. Grace said: 'This 20lbs has changed everything, not just how I look, but how I feel." Her PCOS symptoms are also now "better" as she claims she feels like she has control over her eating for the "first time ever.' The NHS 12-step plan to help you lose weight FROM faddy diets to dodgy detoxes - most of us have heard it all before when it comes to weight loss. But burning fat can be easy and mostly free. In fact, the NHS has a whole load of medically-approved tips for weight loss and shedding body fat once and for all... Don't skip breakfast Skipping breakfast will not help you lose weight. You could miss out on essential nutrients and you may end up snacking more throughout the day because you feel hungry. Eat regular meals Eating at regular times during the day helps burn calories at a faster rate. It also reduces the temptation to snack on foods high in fat and sugar. Eat plenty of fruit and veg Fruit and veg are low in calories and fat, and high in fibre – 3 essential ingredients for successful weight loss. They also contain plenty of vitamins and minerals. Get more active Being active is key to losing weight and keeping it off. As well as providing lots of health benefits, exercise can help burn off the excess calories you cannot lose through diet alone. Drink lots of water People sometimes confuse thirst with hunger. You can end up consuming extra calories when a glass of water is really what you need. Eat high fibre foods Foods containing lots of fibre can help keep you feeling full, which is perfect for losing weight. Fibre is only found in food from plants, such as fruit and veg, oats, wholegrain bread, brown rice and pasta, and beans, peas and lentils. Read food labels Knowing how to read food labels can help you choose healthier options. Use the calorie information to work out how a particular food fits into your daily calorie allowance on the weight loss plan. Use a smaller plate Using smaller plates can help you eat smaller portions. By using smaller plates and bowls, you may be able to gradually get used to eating smaller portions without going hungry. It takes about 20 minutes for the stomach to tell the brain it's full, so eat slowly and stop eating before you feel full. Don't ban foods Do not ban any foods from your weight loss plan, especially the ones you like. Banning foods will only make you crave them more. There's no reason you cannot enjoy the occasional treat as long as you stay within your daily calorie allowance. Don't stock junk food To avoid temptation, do not stock junk food – such as chocolate, biscuits, crisps and sweet fizzy drinks – at home. Instead, opt for healthy snacks, such as fruit, unsalted rice cakes, oat cakes, unsalted or unsweetened popcorn, and fruit juice. Cut down on alcohol A standard glass of wine can contain as many calories as a piece of chocolate. Over time, drinking too much can easily contribute to weight gain. Plan your meals Try to plan your breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for the week, making sure you stick to your calorie allowance. You may find it helpful to make a weekly shopping list. 3
