Jos Buttler says England will continue to target the score of 500 in one-day international cricket after falling just two runs short of that mark during a devastating performance against the Netherlands.
England smashed their way to a new world record on Friday, posting the highest-ever total in the history of One-Day International (ODI) cricket. On the receiving end were the Netherlands bowlers, who were plundered for a record 498 for four at the VRA Cricket Ground in Amstelveen by a rampant English side. Jos Buttler, who finished on 162 not out, led the carnage, bringing up his ton off just 47 balls. Liam Livingstone, batting at number six, made the fastest 50 in England's ODI history off just 17 balls -- the joint second-fastest of all-time. In all three England batters scored centuries in the run blitz.
Jos Buttler says England will keep chasing the 500-run mark in one-day internationals after narrowly missing out on the milestone in a record-breaking win over Netherlands.
England will keep chasing the 500-run mark in one-day internationals (ODIs) after narrowly missing out on the milestone in a record-breaking win over Netherlands, Jos Buttler said.
Jos Buttler said. England broke their own record for the highest team total in ODI history after they smashed 498-4 to win by 232 runs on Friday. Buttler, Dawid Malan and Phil Salt notched up centuries while Liam Livingstone walked into bat in the 45th over and scored England's fastest ODI fifty as they eclipsed their previous record of 481 against Australia in 2018. "We've come close one time before this and the message in the team is to try to keep pushing boundaries and taking the team forward, take the game on," Buttler told reporters.
