Stanford Superstars posts win

COOLIDGE (Antigua): Andre Fletcher sent out a warning to England by slamming the Middlesex attack for an unbeaten 90 as the Stanford Superstars cruised to a 58-run win in the Twenty20 Super Series cricket match here on Thursday.

In the final warm-up match before Saturday’s all-or-nothing clash between the Superstars and England, where members of the victorious XI will win $1 million each, Fletcher struck the first fifty of the tournament.

The 20-year-old wicketkeeper-batsman smashed seven sixes in an innings lasting a mere 66 balls. All-rounder Kieron Pollard weighed in with four sixes in 27 not out off nine balls as the Superstars piled up 173 for four in its 20 overs. English Twenty20 king Middlesex had no answer to the assault.

Faced with such a daunting total to chase, it was never in the hunt and was bowled out with 15 balls left after spinner Dave Mohammed took two wickets off successive deliveries.

The scores:

Stanford Superstars 173 for four in 20 overs (A. Fletcher 90 n.o.) bt Middlesex 115 in 17.3 overs. — Agencies
