Alex Hales hit 147 as England walloped Australia by 242 runs whilst recording a record score of 481-6 at Trent Bridge in their third one day international.
Former Chesham Grammar School student Hales struck 16 fours and five sixes in his 92-ball knock as England also secured their biggest one-day win in history.
Jonny Bairstow hit a brutal 139 as England briefly threatened to post 500 in the third ODI.
Australia were bowled out for 239 in 37 overs as Adil Rashid took 4-47.
England's win, which gave them an unassailable 3-0 lead in the series with two games to play, came only 11 days after New Zealand made the highest total in a women's ODI - 490-4 against Ireland in Dublin.
While the innings of Hales and Bairstow, which both lasted 92 balls, laid the platform, skipper Eoin Morgan provided the late impetus with a rapid 67.
The left-hander hit a 21-ball half-century - the fastest by an England player - in becoming his country's all-time top ODI run-scorer.
Hales told The Telegraph: "What a ground. We've had some great memories here as a team and today is another special day.
“My plan was just to keep the momentum going. I know the ground like the back of my hand so it was nice to do something special.
“It (scoring 500) was murmured. Morgs was saying if ever there's a chance to do it, now's the time. We just couldn't get going at the end there with the wide slower balls, but what a day.”
