Strong batting performances have been England Legends’ forte, and they became the first team to beat India Legends last time out. Putting up a target of 189, England Legends survived a late onslaught by Irfan Pathan and Manpreet Gony to win the game by six runs.

The result took them to third in the table, with eight points from two games. England Legends will look to continue their winning run when they face South Africa Legends on Thursday.

South Africa Legends lost the only game they have played since the Road Safety World Series resumed when Sri Lanka Legends beat them by nine wickets. South Africa collapsed in an abysmal batting performance that game, getting bowled out for 89.

But with players like Jonty Rhodes, Justin Kemp and Alviro Petersen in their ranks, they will look to give England legends a tough fight in Raipur.
