Captain Andrew Strauss hit an undefeated 117 to lead England to an emphatic eight-wicket victory over local franchise side the Warriors on Sunday.
In batting-friendly conditions, the Warriors compiled 254 for five wickets in their 50 overs after choosing to bat first. Their bowlers toiled with little reward, though, as England raced to 256 for two in 40.5 overs.
Strauss hit 10 fours and a six in his 119-ball innings, as he and opening partner Joe Denly put on 175 for the first wicket, off 29 overs. Denly scored 82 off 85 balls, hitting seven fours and two sixes, before being caught at long-on off the bowling of seamer Darryl Brown.
