Afghanistan’s lead spinner Rashid Khan has had a horrid day in the field as he conceded worst figures by a bowler in the history of World Cup. Rashid Khan bowled nine overs and gave away 110 runs and to make things worse, he went wicketless. The Afghan snatched the infamous record from former New Zealand pacer Martin Snedden, who during the 1983 World Cup had conceded 105 runs in 12 overs against England.

Overall, Rashid Khan now holds the joint-second worst figures in ODIs and joins Wahab Riaz. Michael Lewis’ 113 IN 10 overs continue to be the worse figures in ODIs. As England posted 397 for six, records were bound to tumble. Eoin Morgan Hits Most Sixes in an ODI Inning!

While Rashid Khan was smashed all over the park, his co-spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman bowled comparatively better and conceded only 44 runs in his quota of ten overs. Dawlat Zadran and Gulbadin Naib scalped three wickets each. After Rashid Khan returned with expensive figures, he was trolled on Twitter with funny memes featuring the spinner going viral.

It was England skipper Eoin Morgan who did the bulk of the damage. The left-hander recorded the fourth fastest century in World Cup history. During his knock, Morgan smashed 17 sixes, which now is the new record for most sixes by a batsman in an ODI. 397 is now apparently England’s highest team total in World Cup history.
