All the action as it happened from the Stanford Superstars' 10-wicket mauling of England.

- Superstars 101-0 (12.5 overs) - Gayle smashes another huge six to bring up victory and the ground goes ballastic. What a performance from Gayle and his team. Fletcher is on the deck and there are hugs all round. A deserved victory and it's amazing to think how this one match will change to life of a group of young West Indian players. Good on them.

- Superstars 93-0 (12 overs) - Another four from Gayle moves the Superstars within seven runs of riches.

- Superstars 85-0 (11 overs) - Gayle reaches his half century off 33 balls - a real skipper's innings. 14 to win now for the Superstars.

- Superstars 83-0 (10 overs) - England finally have a chance but Pietersen and Swann unable to claim a skier from Gayle. Broad is at least varying his attack but it all seems a little pointless.

- Superstars 79-0 (9 overs) - Another huge six from Gayle - his fourth - this time off Swann. The Superstars can almost taste those greenbacks!

- Superstars 71-0 (8 overs) - Collingwood slows down the run rate a little but the Superstars are still cruising. Gayle not out on 40, Fletcher on 27.

- Superstars 67-0 (7 overs) - Patel comes into the attack but Gayle hits him for a huge six - his third of the night - in what is proving a fantastic display from the Superstars skipper. Superstars need 33 runs to claim the $20 million prize. Looks a formality!

- Superstars 58-0 (6 overs) - Gayle hits Flintoff for two fours through the offside. Easy for the Superstars.This whole week proving to be a bit of an embarassment for England.

- Superstars 49-0 (5 overs) - Fletcher is on fire as he smashes Harmisson for four and Gayle then follows suit with a four and two six. Gayle well and truly into his stride as Superstars hit 22 from the over. Goodnight England I think!

- Superstars 27-0 (4 overs) - Flintoff into the attack and at speed, but Fletcher continues to take the game to England with a four off the last delivery.

- Superstars 22-0 (3 overs) - Boundary from Gayle and good running between the wickets continues the Superstars superb start. Harmison has an appeal for Fletcher caught behind turned down by video umpire.

- Superstars 15-0 (2 overs) - Fletcher looking very nervy but he survives another over scare. Gayle should tell him they have plenty of time! But he smacks three boundaries off Broad that should settle the nerves. Excellent over for the Superstars.

- Superstars 2-0 (1 over) - Early run out chance for Patel off the first ball but he misses the stumps. Fletcher also lucky to survive a rising ball from Harmison. Umpire then goes upstairs for an lbw appeal but it is given not out. Good first over from Harmison.

Gayle takes strike with Fletcher, Harmison to open the bowling for England. Can the Superstars do it?

--------------------------------------

- Eng 99-all out (20 overs) - Harmison picks up a boundary with a clever dink behind. Broad survives a run-out but Benn bowls Harmisson next over. So England all out for 99 as they set the Superstars 100 to win. Excellent performance from Gayle's side; what can England produce to keep alive their hopes of riches?

- Eng 92-9 (19 overs) - Patel goes for a single on a misfield and is run out after a decent throw by skipper Gayle after making 22 - England's top scorer. Harmisson in for the final over - let's hope he can produce a couple of big hits!

- Eng 86-8 (18 overs) - Patel gets a lucky edge for four, despite a good over from Pollard who has bowled an effective and intelligent spell. 14 needed to reach the 100 mark.

- Eng 79-8 (17 overs) - Taylor back on and a better over from England. Patel and Broad have put on 15 from 14 balls together in a sort of partnership! Can they give England some sort of target?

- Eng 72-8 (16 overs) - Broad survives after a drop catch on the boundary by Mohammed and Patel then smacks a four. Can England get to 100 and get the three-figure boost?

- Eng 64-8 (15 overs) - Quicker ball from Benn sends Swann back to the shed for 3. Broad next up and he at least gets off the mark.

- Eng 60-7 (14 overs) - Wright goes for the big hit but Sammy holds another skier on the boundary. The Windians are holding everything tonight! Wright out for 1 as Pollard takes his second wicket. Swann the new batsman.

- Eng 56-6 (13 overs) - Collingwood goes for the big shot but is superbly caught by a diving Sarwan. Oh dear, the England players can wave their luxury lifestyle goodbye! Benn gets his first wicket, Collingwood gone for 10, Wright in for England.

- Eng 54-5 (12 overs) - Pollard claims the vital wicket of Flintoff for eight, straight after the big all-rounder had clouted the ball over his head for four. England in dire straights here!

- Eng 46-4 (11 overs) - England still stuggling but at least gets two off straight drive.

- Eng 43-4 (10 overs) - Another decent over from Sammy as he finishes his spell having conceded just 3.25 runs per over. England run rate a disappointing 4.34 per over, well below the seven runs they'd be looking at!

- Eng 40-4 (9 overs) - Lucky edge from Collingwood brings up a much-needed boundary. But England batsmen looking far from comfortable with run rate well down.

- Eng 34-4 (8 overs) - Sammy has decent lbw appeal on Flintoff turned down before taking out of the leg stump of Pietersen. England in dire straits here! Pietersen gone for seven, Collingwood the new batsmen. You could see that wicket coming as Pietersen was getting nowhere despite playing some decent shots and left his leg stump fully exposed.

- Eng 31-3 (7 overs) - Just the one run from the over as Superstars keep the pressure on England, who have alot of work to do!

- Eng 30-3 (6 overs) - Sammy has changed ends and captures the wicket of Shah, Mohammed clinging on to a skier - excellent catch as he collides with Pollard. Shah out for four, Flintoff joins Pietersen. Crucial partnership for England that must do well.

- Eng 27-2 (5 overs) - Pietersen off the mark but the force still with the Superstars.

- Eng 22-2 (4 overs) - Break through from Taylor as he first takes Bell's wicket for seven with a full-paced yorker and then takes Prior out for 12 two balls later. What an over from Taylor! Shah and skipper Pietersen the new batsmen for England.

- Eng 19-0 (3 overs) - Sammy gets some decent bounce but Bell does well to keep rising ball down before hooking next delivery for four. Bell on 6, Prior 11 and running well between the wickets.

- Eng 13-0 (2 overs) - Powerful drive through the covers from Prior for the first boundary of the evening. Taylor looking a tad dishevelled but sensibly varies his pace. Solid start for England.

- Eng 4-0 (1 over) - Sammy starts with a wide and Mohammed misfield hands Bell couple of runs. No doubt nerves are affecting both sides.

-----------------------------------------

- Sammy has the new ball, Bell and Prior opening for England.

- The $20 million on offer is the largest single payout for a sporting match, so no pressure then. Holiday villas, yachts, classic cars, you name it - they'll all be afforable to tonight's winners.

- England skipper Pietersen has won the toss and elected to bat. Every run worth a potential fortune for his squad, and the coaches too!
