England blast world record 498, Mott era starts in style

England have rampaged to a world record 4-498 following Jos Buttler's breathtaking belligerence as the Netherlands were blown away in the first one-day international.

Not only was the previous ODI best of 6-481 that England amassed against Australia four years ago eclipsed.

But the total even bettered the 4-496 Surrey registered against Gloucestershire which had stood as the List A benchmark since April 2007.

Buttler missed out on breaking his own record for the fastest century by an England batter by just one ball on Friday, reaching three figures from 47 deliveries, before finishing unbeaten on 162 off 70.

It was the perfect start to the reign of Australian Matthew Mott as the new England white-ball coach as they racked up a 232-run win in Amstelveen, just outside Amsterdam.

While Buttler cracked 14 of England's 26 sixes, he was given an ideal platform by Phil Salt's maiden international ton and Dawid Malan's first hundred in ODIs in a 222-run partnership which helped England recover from the early loss of Jason Roy, bowled by his cousin Shane Snater.

Eoin Morgan was out for a golden duck but no impetus was lost courtesy of Buttler and Liam Livingstone, who clubbed the fastest ODI fifty by an Englishman off 17 balls in a cameo 66 not out in 22 deliveries.

It was an error-strewn fielding performance from the Dutch with Salt, Buttler and Livingstone all dropped in the deep before reaching 50, and they collapsed to their heaviest defeat after being skittled for 266 in 49.4 overs.

Netherlands' gamble to field first backfired spectacularly on a day where temperatures approached 30 degrees Celsius.

Salt was given a reprieve on 40 when he was spilled at deep point by Snater and the opener, included because Jonny Bairstow is unavailable due to Test commitments, capitalised with an 82-ball hundred before going on to make 122.

Buttler, this year's Indian Premier League MVP and top-scorer, was shuffled up the order and was spilled on 37 by Musa Ahmed running in from long-off.

Amid the onslaught Malan reached three figures in understated fashion to join Buttler as the only two Englishmen to make centuries in all three formats.

But Malan was content to defer to his partner, contributing 39 to a 184-run stand before holing out for 125 off Netherlands captain Pieter Seelaar.

The slow left-armer accounted for his opposite number Morgan, but Livingstone wasted no time settling in as he took 32 in an over off Philippe Boissevain.

By this point Buttler had already become England's third centurion - something they had never done in an ODI innings - after crunching Aryan Dutt for the first of three successive sixes.

He took England to a new ODI record with a slash for six over cow corner and while the crowd sang "boring, boring England" when the chance to get 500 was snuffed out, Livingstone brought them to their feet once more with a six over deep midwicket from the final ball of the innings.

When the home side batted, Moeen Ali took 3-57 while Scott Edwards' defiant 72 not out averted the possibility of the heaviest defeat in ODI history.
