Top 3 highest individual scores by English players on ODI debut

One Day Internationals are supposed to be one of the most challenging and mentally exhausting as it includes the patience from Test match cricket as well as range hitting from T20 Internationals. England have been at the center of cricket and are among the sides that have produced legends time and again. 

Playing cricket for the national side is always a dream for any aspiring cricket. Lets us have a look at the top three highest individual scores by the English players on their ODI debut;

1. 106 –Michael Lumb vs West Indies at North Sound in 2014

Michael Lumb was considered to not have the best of techniques, but in his day he could be the most talented as well as extremely destructive left-handed opener who was also part of England’s victorious squad in World Twenty20 back in the year  2010. The left batter clearly made a mark just at his debut match when the top order batter went on to score a match-winning 106 against the West Indies squad.

2. 103 –Dennis Amiss vs Australia at Manchester in 1972

Dennis Amiss was among the most well-known cricketers of his generation. Amiss was regarded widely for his power as well as timing and also placement through extra cover and midwicket. Amiss was the hardest to dismiss once he reached 40 runs scored than any other batsman of his generation. He was well-built, tenacious, and also four-square at the crease., considering the likes of  Geoff Boycott.

In his debut ODI match, Dennis Amiss went on to score 103 runs against a match-winning Australia at Manchester in the 1972 series.

3. 88 –Derek Randall vs West Indies at Lord’s in 1976

One of the most eye-pleasing batters of that time, Derek Randall has been one such cricketer. The image of Derek Randall, who appears to be standing still at attention in the batting crease and who acknowledges a Dennis Lillee ball by donning his cap, is the best portrait in all of cricket. It was in his debut match against the West Indies where Derek Randall went on to score a match-winning 88 runs against West Indies at Lord’s in the 1976 series.
