An inspired Jayden Seales led the West Indies to a crushing 209-run victory over Pakistan in the third and deciding one-day international in Trinidad on Tuesday.

The fast bowler blew away the Pakistan top order en route to figures of 6-18 as the tourists were bundled out for just 92 in a chase of 295 to win.
As a result of this performance, Seales registered the best-ever bowling figures against Pakistan in an ODI, breaking the almost 12-year-long record of South Africa’s Dale Steyn.
The former Proteas pacer had registered the figures of 6/39 against Pakistan in 2013. Seales is also the first bowler from the West Indies to take a six-wicket haul against Pakistan in an ODI.
The 23-year-old speedster was adjudged as Player of the Series for his haul of 10 wickets.
The Windies had reached 294-6 in their 50 overs batting first, powered by captain Shai Hope's brilliant unbeaten hundred.

I’m a school teacher: SEND provision changes lives
In the foreword to a report by the centre-right think tank Policy Exchange, the former health secretary Jeremy Hunt argues that children are being overdiagnosed with mental health and neurodivergent conditions. In England, one in five children has been identified with additional needs, and Hunt says that the rise in Send spending “risks the financial sustainability of local government.” The idea of this claimed “overdiagnosis” is baffling to me because, as a secondary school teacher, I've seen firsthand how labyrinthine and difficult the process is.
