Jessica Ennis-Hill on Saturday attempted to play down the favourite tag bestowed upon her by rivals for Olympic heptathlon gold including fellow Briton Katarina Johnson-Thompson.Johnson-Thompson won the long jump on day two of the Anniversary Games in London with a seasons best 6.84 metres as Ennis-Hill finished seventh with 6.19m.Ennis-Hill, who less than a month ago set a long jump personal best of 6.63, was the poster girl of London 2012, where she won heptathlon gold.But the 30-year-old from Sheffield, whose personal best over seven disciplines is the 6955 set en route to Olympic gold, sought to temper expectations.People like to put pressure on. I dont see myself as the favourite, Ennis-Hill said. I havent got the world lead and I didnt compete in Gotzis when everyone else did.There are quite a few girls who have upped their game this year. I dont feel like the favourite, no. Its really tough competition.Brianne Theisen-Eaton is the world leader in the heptathlon this year with 6765 points.But Ennis-Hill won the 2015 world title in Beijing ahead of the Canadian and showed with a seasons best in the 100m hurdles on Friday that she is very nearly back to her best, two years after giving birth to her son Reggie and despite an Achilles problem earlier in the season.Ennis-Hill was not able to back-up her hurdles run in the final, when she clattered a hurdle and Kendra Harrison bettered a 28-year-old world record to win in 12.20 seconds.That race is going to be played forever and Im going to be coming last. But it was a great race to be in, Ennis-Hill added.Despite playing down her chances, she is optimistic for Rio. She added: I love championships, thats when I want to be at my best. I love those environments. It brings the best out of me.Last year was just up and down with injuries. To have improved on last year and feeling the way I am now, I feel good, I feel healthy. Id have taken this.The long jump performance was something of a reminder that there is plenty of work still to be done.Having jumped 6.60 a few weeks ago Id hoped to jump that again, she added.Ive got a couple more weeks to get everything right. I hope to bring it all together in Rio. Thats when it matters.Johnson-Thompson was satisfied in winning the long jump, following an outdoor personal best in Fridays high jump of 1.95m.There was additional satisfaction for Johnson-Thompson, who failed to record a legal jump at last years World Championships in Beijing, ending her medal bid there.The 23-year-old from Liverpool said: Im happy. No no-jumps. My lowest one was 6.60, so Im pleased. Got a consistent set of good jumps out there.Its a long way better than what Ive done this season. I just have to back myself now.I feel like when Im 100 percent healthy I can do anything. Carl Banks Jersey .

At the start of a nerve-shredding final morning in Chittagong, the Tigers needed 33 runs while England required two wickets and it was the tourists who came out on top thanks to Ben Stokes removing Taijul Islam and Shafiul Islam in the space of three balls.Bangladesh did themselves no disgrace in their first Test in nearly 15 months as they played their part in an engrossing contest, but they must now shake off the close loss at the Shere Bangla National Stadium.
