In Egypt, over 13.5 million men and women over 30 are single—more than half of that age group. Behind these numbers is a deepening economic crisis.

On top of this, getting married is becoming increasingly expensive, putting additional financial pressure on many young adults and contributing to the rising number of singles.

England were 83-2 at lunch on the first day, having won the toss and decided to bat, with Reddy dismissing openers Ben Duckett and Zak Crawley in his first over on the way to impressive figures of 2-15 in five overs. Ollie Pope, nearly dismissed first ball, was 12 not out with Joe Root unbeaten on 24.

Yemen's Houthi rebels have once again targeted maritime traffic in the Red Sea, sinking the Liberian-flagged cargo vessel Eternity C. The attack resulted in at least three crew fatalities, with only six out of the 25 crew members rescued so far.
