People from the cricket fraternity couldn't hold themselves from reacting to England's unbelievable feat against Australia
Breaking its own record, England made history on Tuesday when they registered the highest team total in ODIs of 481 against Australia at the loss of 6 wickets at Trent Bridge, Nottingham.
This came after a hammering knock by Jonny Bairstow (139) and Alex Hales (147) along with opener Jason Roy’s 82 and skipper Eoin Morgan’s 67 off 30 balls.
The English hit a total of 41 fours and 21 sixes to achieve this feat.
On the other hand, the Aussies fell like a castle of cards getting blown by English winds as they incurred their biggest defeat by 242 runs. They ended their innings in just 37 overs.
England posed an all-round performance with their bowlers performing well. Adil Rashid took 4 wickets while Moeen Ali took 3 and David Willey bagged 2 wickets.
Meanwhile, people from the cricket fraternity couldn't hold themselves from reacting to England's unbelievable feat against Australia. Here are some of their reactions:
Despite a belter of a wicket at Trent Bridge, fabulous batting performance by England to pose the highest ever ODI score -481/6. Brilliant innings from Roy, Bairstow, Hales, Morgan #ENGVAUS

Just woke to the result at Trent Bridge, appears it’s an unpopular hunting ground for Australia. Remarkable score (481) amassed by England, take a deep breath...give this new group time. #ENGVAUS
