ENGLAND broke their own record for the largest ever score in ODI cricket, after scoring a stunning 498 against Holland.

Jos Buttler scored an incredible 162 from 70 balls, while Eoin Morgan's side made it three centuries.

It broke the record for England of 481 set by Australia in 2018 in a win over England.

Phil Salt scored 122, David Malan scored 125, and Jason Roy was bowled only for 1 in the second innings.

Captain Morgan was expelled for being a golden duck, but that didn't matter because England continued to smash their previous record of one day.

Buttler was helped by Liam Livingston, who threw a remarkable 66 to close out a truly amazing innings.

England will be happy to improve on this record in the days ahead.

This is the beginning of a three-match series against Holland. The second and third games will take place on Sunday and Wednesday.

Morgan's side will, undoubtedly, be trying to go above the 500 mark if there is an opportunity.

Next month, England will face India in a three-match series.

This set of matches promises to be much more difficult than what Holland has to offer.

The matches are intense for the one-day players, as they face South Africa in an ODI series before facing them again in T20.

These one-day matches will precede the Test series against South Africa that takes place in August and September.
