Young rising star Jacob Bethell continued to display his potential in England’s first ODI against India, scoring 51 off 64 balls. Walking in at 111/4, the 21-year-old provided much-needed stability, as he stitched a crucial 59-run stand with skipper, Jos Buttler (52). His efforts helped the English side to reach 248 before being bowled out. The southpaw reached his second ODI half-century before falling to Ravindra Jadeja.
Bethell also contributed with the ball, dismissing Shreyas Iyer and finishing with a figure of 1/18 from three overs of bowling spell. Since making his ODI debut against Australia in September 2024, the youngster has been a dependable middle-order batter with the ability to chip in with key wickets. He will be hoping for a similar showing in the upcoming Cuttack ODI in a bid to help the Three Lions level the series and stay relevant for the third and final ODI.
