THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AHMEDABAD, India — Jonathan Trott warmed up for the upcoming test series against India with a fluent century Sunday that completed the visiting England side’s domination over Haryana in a four-day practice game that ended in a draw.

Trott, who was 61 not out when England resumed on an overnight score of 118-0, reached 101 with 13 fours and one six as England declared its second innings on 254-6 to set an improbable target of 442 in less than two sessions of play.

England was left four wickets away from victory as Haryana was reduced to 133-6 in its second innings.

Seamer Tim Bresnan was the pick of the England bowlers, taking 2-13 in seven overs. Bresnan also had the tourists’ best figures of 3-66 in the first innings.
