It was a tough day to be a bowler facing likes of Liam Livingstone and Jos Buttler who have just come from IPL and carrying even more deadliest form. Top three highest totals in ODIs belong to England who play with different attitude in white ball which now they have adopted in Test cricket too.
England 498/3 vs Netherlands
The first team on the list is England, which holds the record for the highest totals in ODIs. On July 17, 2022, they scored 498 runs for the loss of four wickets against the Netherlands in Amstelveen, Netherlands. Jos Buttler scored 162 off 70 balls, David Malan scored 125 off 109 balls, Philip Salt scored 122 off 93 balls and Liam Livingstone scored 66 of 22 balls.
England 481/6 vs Australia
England has once again topped the list of most highest scores posted by a team. On the 19th of June 2018, they smashed 481 runs for the cost of six wickets against a powerful Australian bowling attack at Trent Bridge. It was full carnage by English openers then followed by Alex Hales and Eoin Morgan. Alex Hales scored 147 off 92 balls, Jonny Bairstow scored 139 off 92 balls, and Jason Roy scored 82 off 61 balls.
England 444/3 vs Pakistan
Probably worst outing Pakistan had against England in ODIs. Toughest team to bowl to when it is Trent Bridge, it just rains sixes and fours, such a hard ground to stop th the run flow. On the 30th of August 2016, England dominated the visiting Pakistani squad at Trent Bridge. In 50 overs, they scored 444 runs and lost only three wickets. Alex Hales scored 171 off 112 balls, Jos Buttler scored 90 off 51 balls and Joe Root scored 85 off 86 balls.
They faced a respectable bowling attack and banged them all over the ground so it’s not only easy target such as Netherlands.
