Unbelievable knock by England batsmen that will go down in the history boooks. England's Juggernaut set the world record for the second time in two years at Trent Bridge, scoring the highest ever total in One-Day Internationals against Australia.
Jonny Bairstow's ton was his fourth in six ODIs while Hales's superb century on his Nottinghamshire home ground ended a run of low scores.
England spinners Adil Rashid scalped 4 wickets and conceded 47 runs and Moeen Ali scalped three wickets for 28 runs with a hill of hefty runs behind them, shared seven wickets between them.
England bowling deparment was superb and bowled out Australia for 239 in just 37 overs their biggest victory in terms of runs in ODIs.

The ozzies need atleast one boundary an over to have a realistic chance.. that was our mindset..if not you leave yourself with too much to catch up

That is Australia's heaviest ever defeat in ODIs. Worst ranking since 1984. They have lost 13 of their last 15 ODIs. But at least they didn't lose to Scotland, right?
