England beat UWI Chancellor’s XI

Bajan batsman Chadwick Walton gave the selectors another reminder of his class with a whirlwind century in the Chancellor XI’s failed chase of 380 for victory. Earlier, Jason Roy (79), Joe Root (71), Eoin Moragn (95) and Ben Stokes (61) all notched half-centuries to propel the visitors to a commanding 379 for eight in their 50 overs.

Pacer Jermaine Levy took four wickets but each scalp came at quite a price. The 23-year-old Jamaican conceded 100 runs in his 10 overs as England racked up a formidable total.

In reply, the UWI Chancellor’s XI lost wickets continuously with opener Amir Jangoo and number three batsman Anthony Alleyne both out for duck. But Walton took the attack to England with 12 fours and seven sixes in 109 balls.

However, his effort could only see the hosts to a total of 262 all out
