England smashed West Indies by 238 runs

At a bright Edgbaston on Thursday, England ended a seven-match losing record in ODIs and took a 1-0 lead in the three-match series after crushing West Indies by 238 runs in Harry Brook's first game as full-time captain.

Against a ragged West Indies attack, England amassed 400-8 because to half-centuries from Ben Duckett, Joe Root, and Brook, and a devastating 82 from Jacob Bethell in 53 balls. In the 50-over format, it was the biggest score England had ever scored at home against the West Indies, and the visitors were unable to handle it and gave up in a weak manner. The West Indies response collapsed to 162 all out, with only Keacy Carty and skipper Shai Hope hitting more than 20 before an exciting but pointless late cameo of 29 from number 11 Jayden Seales. Saqib Mahmood and Jamie Overton each claimed three wickets, while Brook grabbed five catches.
