England captain Eoin Morgan said he never thought he could shatter a six-hitting record or blast a century with a strike rate of over 200 after pulling off both feats in as his side beat Afghanistan by 150 runs at the Cricket World Cup.
Morgan clobbered 17 sixes, one more than the previous record shared by India’s Rohit Sharma, West Indies’ Chris Gayle and South African AB de Villiers – and his career-best 148 runs in the group stage match also earned him the man-of-the-match award.
