England's ODI defeat to India branded a "walloping from first ball to the last"

Former England captain Nasser Hussain has delivered a withering assessment of their ten-wicket defeat to India in the first ODI at the Oval.

England were bowled out for just 110, thanks to a stunning performance from Jasprit Bumrah, who picked up 6-19 from his 7.2 overs. Mohammed Shami also impressed for India, taking 3-31, with four members of England's top six getting out for ducks.

India then comfortably chased down the 111 they needed to win without losing a wicket, with captain Rohit Sharma striking 76 and Shikhar Dhawan scoring 31. And Hussain described the match as "very one-sided", with England "just not at the races".
