Owais Shah (58*) and Angelo Matthews (65*) were the heroes, putting on 130 runs for the third wicket.

UEFA Europa League football – Valencia vs Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen travel to Valencia tonight in the first leg of their last-sixteen Europa League tie. The visitors are sixth in the Bundesliga and will hope to improve on their 2-2 draw with Stuttgart last time out. Valencia are third in La Liga, behind only Barcelona and Real Madrid but will be hungry for some European success.
UEFA Europa League football – Lille vs Liverpool
Liverpool have seen their hopes of winning the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup and Carling Cup dashed this season. Tonight they travel to Lille in the hope of giving something back to their fans, who will surely be dismayed by the plight of their club, who now look unlikely to even qualify for any competition stronger than this one next season. Even with Steven Gerrard and Fernanado Torres, the Reds crashed to defeat on Monday against lowly Wigan, and tonight's opposition look to be tougher.
UEFA Europa League football betting – Atletico Madrid vs Sporting CP
Atletico Madrid host Sporting tonight in the last sixteen of the Europa League looking to put their poor domestic standing to one side and concentrate on winning only the club's first European Trophy that is still in use.

Sporting have not had their best season ever but still sit fourth in the Portuguese Liga.
UEFA Europa League betting odds – Benfica vs Marseille
Benfica take on Marseille tonight as they look to continue their excellent season so far. They are currently on course to win their first Portuguese title since 2005.

Marseille are fourth in the tightly poised Ligue 1, but are only three points away from leaders Bordeaux.
UEFA Europa League betting – Juventus vs Fulham
Fulham have been great in Europe so far this season, but will face their toughest challenge yet when they are hosted by Juventus. Roy Hodgson's side completed a 3-2 aggregate win over Shaktar in the last round, and if there was ever a good time to play the Bianconeri, this is it.
World Golf Championship betting – CA Championship
The WGC CA Championship is a relatively new event. The tournament has been held only ten times and six of those were won by Tiger Woods. However, Tiger is not taking part this year, giving the chance for several of golf's biggest names to compete for $8.5 million purse on the 'Blue Monster' course at Doral, Miami, Florida. The course, a 7,266 Par 72, gets its name from the twelve water hazards it boast and it will be a real test for every player.
