The England Stanford Series 20/20 odds as they go into this month's Stanford Super Series playing for the biggest cash prizes of their cricketing careers. The chain of games at a purpose-built ground in Antigua will culminate with the Stanford Twenty20 for 20 game, which will hand a $20 million jackpot to the winner. England (4/6) will be pitted against the Stanford Super Stars (11/10), a team comprising the cream of West Indian cricket selected by a panel which included Sir Vivian Richards. There is no denying the lure of an incredible pay-day will be a huge motivating factor to Kevin Pietersen's side, who will use the competition as valuable practice ahead of the Twenty20 World Cup in England next year.

After suffering an early exit from the inaugural Twenty20 World Cup in South Africa in 2007, England have found their feet, winning their last three Twenty20 internationals, albeit against a New Zealand side with little Twenty20 contests under their belts. Both England and the West Indians that make up the Stanford Super Stars have ample experience of Twenty20, with domestic competitions having been in operation over the past three years in both countries. KP's aggressive brand of batting is tailor-made for the ultra-short form of the game and he is 3/1 to top score for England in the big match on Saturday, 1st November. Ian Bell, who top-scored in the last of England's Twenty/20 triumphs and has fitted comfortably into his new role as limited overs opener, is 4/1 to score more runs than any other Englishman.
Another man who has been given a new lease of life with England under KP is Owais Shah - the new number three, who belted an unbeaten 75 in Middlesex's Twenty20 Cup Final win, is also 4/1 to top score for England. For the hosts, Chris Gayle is one of the men most likely to strike fear into the hearts of the English attack. The attacking opener has 6,616 runs to his name in limited overs cricket and is 3/1 to tot up the most runs for the Stanford Super Stars. Shivnarine Chanderpaul is a mainstay of the West Indies side and will be hoping to exert his authority on this winner-takes-all match-up. The versatile mid-order maestro, who made 48 on Twenty20 Cup finals day for Durham, is 3/1 to top score for his team.
