Brook Hails 'Exceptional' Bethell in Eng Win

  • England defeated the West Indies by 238 runs in the first ODI at Edgbaston on May 20, ending a seven-match losing streak in this three-game series.
  • The victory followed England recalling Jacob Bethell, a 21-year-old left-handed batter born in Barbados, who missed the recent Test due to his Indian Premier League commitments.
  • Bethell top-scored with 82 runs off 53 balls, including five sixes and eight fours, and shared a 98-run partnership with Will Jacks, while four England batters passed fifty without a century.
  • England scored 400-8, the highest ODI total without an individual century, and dismissed West Indies for 162 with Saqib Mahmood and Jamie Overton taking three wickets apiece.
  • The win gave England a 1-0 lead and ended their losing streak, suggesting improved form under new white-ball captain Harry Brook as the series continues with two matches remaining.
