:England broke their own world record for the highest team total in one-day international (ODI) history after they scored 498-4 in 50 overs against a hapless Netherlands attack on Friday.
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.
It was a party for most of England's batters as they romped their way home to the highest ever ODI score in the first match against the Netherlands on Friday. Jos Buttler, Phil Salt, and Dawid Malan all hit centuries to power England to a mammoth 498/4 in Amstelveen. Liam Livingstone too played his bit with a 22-ball 66. England eventually bowled the Netherlands out for 266 to register a 232-run win and take a 1-0 series lead. However, while most batters made merry for the visitors, it wasn't quite an outing to remember for Jason Roy and England captain Eoin Morgan.

Player of the match Jos Buttler, who finished on 162 not out, plundered his ton off just 47 balls -- missing his own record for the fastest England century by just one ball -- while Phil Salt and Dawid Malan also made three figures.

Sports stars and clubs across the world continue to provide an insight into their lives on social media.
Jos 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.
Liam Livingstone continues to daunt the bowlers with his batting supremacy. The right-handed batter on Friday equalled the record of second-fastest ODI fifty. He achieved the milestone during his side's ongoing first ODI of the three-match series against Netherlands in Amstelveen. By getting to his half-century in only 17 balls, Livingstone joined the likes of Kusal Perera, Sanath Jayasuriya and Martin Guptill on the elite list. Meanwhile, he missed the world record of AB de Villiers, who had scored the fastest ODI fifty, by just one ball.
