The England cricket team has set a historic record of 498 runs in ODIs against the Netherlands.

England-Netherlands clashes for a one-day international series in Amsterdam.

In the England innings Jason Roy got out cheaply for 1 run. But the Billy Salt & David Malone duo demolished the Netherland bowlers.

They have put up a partnership of 222 runs for the second wicket. Salt was unbeaten on 122 off 93 balls. Then action player Jose Butler pulled the trigger. He scored a century in 47 balls.

Malone was then dismissed for 125 in the 45th over. Livingston, who came to pitch, started to smash the opponent’s bowling. In the end, England scored 498 runs for the loss of 4 wickets in 50 overs.

This made England the team with the highest score in ODI cricket in 51 years of history. The England team had previously owned this record and England’s previous world record was 481 against Australia in 2018.

Jose Butler scored 162 off 70 balls. This includes 14 sixes and 7 fours. Livingston scored 66 off 22 balls with six sixes and six fours. England hit 26 sixes in this match and this set a record as the highest number of sixes scored by a team in ODIs.

In the chase, the Netherlands lost all their wickets and scored only 266 runs. England won the match by 232 runs.

Both teams play in an ODI series with 3 matches.

Wanindu Hasaranga Faces Inquiry After Missing Mandatory Fitness Test

Sri Lanka’s premier leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga is under scrutiny after failing to attend a scheduled fitness test, raising fresh concerns over compliance with national selection standards.

Sources within Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) confirmed that selectors have formally escalated the matter to the High Performance Center, overseen by Jerome Jayaratne, along with senior board officials. The incident has drawn attention due to SLC’s increasingly strict enforcement of fitness protocols.

Hasaranga, who missed Sri Lanka’s campaign at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup earlier this year with a hamstring injury, is believed to have fully recovered. Despite this, he has yet to complete the mandatory fitness assessment required for national selection and overseas participation.

Under SLC’s revised policy, centrally contracted players must meet defined fitness benchmarks before receiving clearance to compete in franchise tournaments such as the Indian Premier League.

The situation is particularly significant given Hasaranga’s recent signing by the Lucknow Super Giants during the mini-auction for his base price of INR 2 crore.

Thushara Ruled Out, Pathirana Awaiting Clearance

In a related development, Sri Lanka fast bowler Nuwan Thushara has been ruled out of the upcoming IPL season after failing to meet fitness requirements.

Thushara reportedly did not pass his initial fitness test and was granted a second opportunity, which he also missed. As a result, SLC declined to issue him the required NOC, effectively ending his participation hopes.

Despite being injury-free and available to bowl, Thushara is understood to have fallen short of the board’s prescribed fitness standards. He had been signed by the Royal Challengers Bengaluru for approximately INR 1.6 crore and was expected to bolster their pace attack.

Meanwhile, young pacer Matheesha Pathirana remains in contention but is yet to complete his fitness test. Officials indicate he is likely to join his IPL franchise once he clears the required assessments. Pathirana had previously been sidelined due to a hamstring injury.
IPL 2026 Underway

The 2026 edition of the Indian Premier League officially commenced on March 28 and is scheduled to run through the end of May, with franchises finalizing their squads amid strict fitness and regulatory oversight from national boards.

Late heartbreak ends Sri Lanka’s semi-final hopes

Sri Lanka’s journey at the SAFF U-20 Championship 2026 came to a dramatic and painful end after a last-gasp goal handed Bhutan a 1-0 victory in their decisive group-stage clash in Malé, Maldives.

With a place in the semi-finals on the line, the match carried high stakes for both sides. Sri Lanka entered the contest knowing only a positive result would keep their campaign alive, and they responded with a disciplined and energetic performance. The young Sri Lankan side showed composure in defense while attempting to build attacking momentum against a well-organized Bhutan team.

Chances, however, were at a premium. Sri Lanka managed to create a few half-opportunities but were unable to convert, as the Bhutanese defense held firm. As the match wore on, tension grew, with both teams aware that a draw would not be enough to secure progression.
Just as it seemed the game would end in stalemate, Bhutan struck a decisive blow in stoppage time. Forward Dhendup Gyeltshen capitalized on a momentary lapse in the Sri Lankan defense to score in the 90+2 minute, silencing hopes of a late turnaround and sealing all three points for his side.
