A ruthless performance by England with Morgan registering a record for hitting most sixes by a batsman in an ODI. Also, Rashid Khan endured the worst-ever figures by a bowler in a World Cup, which summed up Afghanistan's situation. The Twitterati lost their cool and reacted on the same.

Brief Score: England 397-6 in 50 overs (Eoin Morgan 148, Jonny Bairstow 90; Gulbadin Naib 68/3, Dawlat Zadran 85/3) beat Afghanistan 247-8 in 50 overs (Hashmatullah Shahidi 76, Rahmat Shah 46; Jofra Archer 52/3, Adil Rashid 66/3) by 150 runs.

Hitting 17 sixes is just ridiculous!

Painful day for Rashid Khan!

Little joys of life!

That'll be the biggest match of the World Cup!

Full marks for efforts!

Next task for Rohit Sharma!

What's in a name nationality?

England could've folded them inside 200!

More misery to Rashid!

Worst spell of his career!

Tough day for Rashid Khan!

Sanjay Manjrekar at his best!
