PAARL, South Africa (Reuters) - Jason Roy struck a run-a-ball century as England claimed a 77-run victory over an inexperienced South Africa Invitation XI in a 50-over training match at Boland Park on Friday.

Roy struck eight fours and two sixes in his score of 104 for 99 balls as England posted 240 all out in 44.1 overs, but there was a first ball duck for Joe Root, while captain Eoin Morgan also failed to get off the mark.
