If you love cricket, you’re probably tracking England’s one‑day internationals (ODIs). This page gives you the freshest info on match dates, scores, and what experts are saying. No fluff, just the stuff you need to know before you grab a snack and tune in.
England’s ODI calendar is packed this season. The next series kicks off on June 8 against New Zealand at Lord's. The opener will be a day‑night game, so expect plenty of action under the lights. After New Zealand, the team travels to the West Indies for a three‑match series starting July 12. Those games are scheduled at Sabina Park, Bridgetown, and the Kensington Oval, Bridgetown – both venues are known for fast pitches that suit England’s seam attack.
Later in the year, England faces Pakistan in a two‑match series in September. The first match lands on September 5 at Old Trafford, while the second heads to the Emirates Stadium. Keep an eye on the squad announcements a week before each series; injuries or form dips often trigger last‑minute changes.
Last month England pulled off a thrilling win against Australia at the Oval. Chasing 280, England’s top order collapsed early, but Jos Buttler’s 78 helped the team scrape past with three balls to spare. The chase showed how depth in the middle order can rescue a game when the top six falters.
In the earlier series against South Africa, England lost the first two matches but rallied in the final game. The win came thanks to a late‑inning partnership between Ben Stokes and Moeen Ali, who added 63 runs for the seventh wicket. That partnership highlighted the importance of flexible batting orders in ODIs.
Statistically, England’s batting average in ODIs sits around 32.5 runs per wicket, while the bowling strike rate hovers near 30 balls per wicket. These numbers suggest the side is solid but can improve against high‑pace attacks. Watching how the bowlers adjust their line and length on slower Caribbean tracks will be key in the upcoming West Indies series.
Fans also love the quick‑fire commentary on social media. After each match, the team’s analyst posts a short video breaking down the top three moments. Those clips are great if you missed the live broadcast but still want the highlights.
