Strongest batting lineup!

Do as I do and not as I say. Morgan is leading this dangerous batting pack by example. Most dangerous batting line-up in the #CWC19. Especially while batting first. #EngvAfg

Bad day for Afgan bowlers!

Afganistan's mystery spinners can trouble any batsman.

England batsmen:- Are you sure??#ENGvAFG #ENG #EoinMorgan #Bairstow #JoeRoot

England beat Windies without hitting a single six.

Morgan has now hit six sixes in 41 balls.

Remarkable.#ENGvAFG #CWC19
