Set 245 to complete a 3-0 clean sweep over a spirited but limited Dutch side weakened by county duties, England were sped by home by a superb century from Jason Roy, with eight wickets and almost 20 overs to spare. Sterner tests lie ahead, starting with series against India and South Africa, but this was a dominant start to the white-ball summer. Morgan will be 36 by the time England begin their next T20 World Cup campaign, in Australia in October. Buttler's first deed of the day had been to put the Netherlands in, depriving the crowd of another England tilt at ODI cricket's first total of 500. The Dutch will be sorry to see England go - but perhaps not that sorry.
