NED VS ENG - 1st ODI, England tour of Netherlands, 2022

Sigh! It's a day for the record books. Some absolute cleanest six-hitting you will ever see as Buttler's stocks continues to rise in white-ball cricket. England will look to dominate and grab those crucial 30 World super league points while Netherlands will hope for a respite. Will it be any different on Sunday? Do remember to join us for the second ODI to find out. Until next time, cheers and goodbye!!

Jos Buttler, Player of the Match: Certainly feels like the form of my life, the IPL was brilliant, absolutely loved it and came back here. The World T20 went well, the Ashes was tough but no cricket for two months was refreshing. Good start for him, this environment has been solid for a few years, we have a clear cut style of play, he dosen’t want to change much, just wants to sit back and enjoy. Morgs is running the ship well. Great to see Sam Curran back in an England shirt. Trying to work out the conditions and backing my six hitting, that’s why fewer scoops.

Eoin Morgan: The last couple of days have been great. Feels good to be among this group. To post a big score like that and then Jos coming in at the end and he is a world of his own, it is absolutely amazing - probably the reason why he is the best white-ball cricketer in the world. When the guys come in and play with the mantra we have been playing for the last 6 years, it's great. We have not played a lot of 50-over cricket recently, it's important to have such situations going into the World Cup in India next year.

Pieter Seelaar: Dropping those catches, you cannot drop the best batters and we let ourselves down with the ball. It was a nice wicket and when someone like Buttler plays like that, puts a lot of pressure on you. Barmy Army was quite loud and the guys will learn from this experience. It's hard to take right now, but it's a good learning curve for the boys.

18:59 local, 16:59 GMT, 22:29 IST: It was a no-contest. At no stage did Netherlands look like challenging the highest total in ODIs. All the top five got starts, but none converted them into anything substantial. Edwards hung in, waged a lone battle with the tail-enders and compiled a well-deserved fifty while at it. Barring Adil Rashid, every other bowler picked up a wicket or two with impressive economy rates on a wicket that proved to be an absolute belter for the batters. Just a day's break before the next ODI and Netherlands have a lot of thinking to do after a proper shellacking from their neighbours. Presentations coming up, stay tuned...

Malan to Boissevain, out Caught by Buttler!! Looks to cut and gets a thick edge through to the keeper. Massive win for England. They win by 232 runs and go 1-0 up in the series. Malan had a splendid day with the bat and only fitting that he caps off the game with a wicket. It's also his maiden ODI wicket. Dropped it short and induced a healthy edge from Boissevain.
