The call-up
Jason Roy made his international debut in the first ODI off the back of England's disappointing World Cup campaign in 2015.
As a part of a group of new, exciting and highly talented players selected, Roy's golden duck on debut was not to be a sign of things to come! He immediately caught the eye with his aggressive and expressive stroke play at the top of the order and made two half-centuries against Australia at the end of the summer.
162 at The Oval
The summer of 2016 saw Roy showcase his immense skills on home soil with two sensational hundreds against Sri Lanka.
He saved his best for his home ground at the Kia Oval, hitting what was then the second highest individual ODI score by an England player with 162 from just 118 balls.
The tour of India
After an impressive summer, Roy carried this form into the winter and was at his very best against one of the world’s best sides in their own backyard.
In three ODIs against India in India, Roy hit three consecutive fifties at the top of the order, showing beyond any doubt his ability to perform against the very best sides in the world.
Dropped, recalled, record-breaker
The 2017 Champions Trophy coincided with a dip in form for Roy which saw him dropped during the tournament. Roy though showed his determination and nerve to respond in the best way possible.
Back to back fifties against the West Indies followed, then in the first ODI against Australia down under he hammered the highest individual ODI score by an England batsman to make 180.
Roy hasn’t looked back since, cementing his spot at the top of the order further with a fine display against Australia again, this time on home soil in England’s 5-0 whitewash.
Finding form
Roy headed into the Cricket World Cup in blistering form. He hit three fifties and one hundred in five innings leading into the tournament.
Scores of 87, 76 and 114 against Pakistan showed his fine form before hitting 32 against Australia and a rapid 89* against Afghanistan.
This was the perfect way to enter the World Cup proper and this form has continued with 54 against South Africa and a blistering 153 against Bangladesh.
Next stop 200?
Roy has now struck three scores of over 150 in one-day cricket, is he the man to take the next step and reach 200?
He holds the highest score with his 180 at the MCG against Australia and looked like he would go close against Bangladesh.
With Roy in top form, is the double-century on the horizon?
