• Saffas Abroad: Vilas leads from the front

    Published on

    Skipper Dane Vilas played a key role to help maintain Lancashire’s unbeaten record and strengthen their hold at the top of the T20 Blast table.

    Vilas scored 40* as Lancashire beat Yorkshire by four runs in Leeds on Wednesday.

    SA-born England international Keaton Jennings got the team off to a strong start at the top of the order with a well-constructed 42 off 28 balls.

    England’s former Paarl Boys’ High prodigy, Dawid Malan, was out for a first-ball duck opening for Yorkshire, but claimed two catches that included one to dismiss Jennings.
