I think the word is........Emphatic

Very good performance by England with Ball & Bat, but WIndies simply never turned up......
 
A brilliant bowling performance from England and West Indies are crushed. Have we ever had two 95 mph bowlers in the same side before? Great to watch.
 
Meanwhile Joe Root has done what Joe Root does and score 88 at roughly a run a ball and nobody really notices.......he really is a wonderful player

Morgan breaks ODI 6 hitting record but has just been caught for 148..........outstanding

From his drop onwards, Morgan scored 120 from 46 balls.

Most of them off Rashid Khan, who had him dropped.

Khan, very highly rated in 20/20, has figures of 0-110 off 9 overs.
 
What a let down! Moeen fails to get a boundary off the last ball, so England fall 3 short of 400.

Mind you, 31 off 9 balls at a strike-rate of 344.44 is not too bad.
 
Boooooo.......Moeen only gets a single off the last ball as England fall short of 400, still he did hit 31 for 9 balls so shouldn't grumble
 
25 sixes in an innings another ODI record, brilliant from England
With some of that bowling and fielding I would have got 50. Over 4 sessions in Test conditions of course.

Still, you can only play what’s in front of you, right attitude and execution from England, let’s finish them off quickly. We have Australia and India last two games, want to be safely in the semi finals by then.
 
Afghanistan need to up their run-rate if they've any chance of winning this.

Morgan is the first person to score a century of sixes in international cricket.
