England avenged its World Cup final defeat to Pakistan by clinching the Texaco Trophy with a 198-run victory in the third of the five-match series on Thursday.
It was not quite the biggest one-day win recorded, but it added up to a healthy consolation prize for Graham Gooch and his men after Pakistan's triumph in Melbourne in March.
For once, the game's most menacing attack was taken apart as nearly every England batsman tucked in to set the world champions an impossible task.
England's total of 363 for seven was the highest in limited overs international history, beating the 360 for four West Indies amassed against Sri Lanka at Karachi during the 1987 World Cup.
Although that match was 50 overs against the 55 here, the opposition was distinctly second division compared with Pakistan.
"Nothing really went right for them." Gooch said. "They've had a good tour. but they put on a bad performance today.
"I'm afraid I can't feel too sorry for them, though. We just picked our best side for one-day cricket a bit of experience and a lot of quality and they came up with the goods.
"I thought from the first few balls that it would move around, but after the first over it didn't do much. The lads had some good fortune and did well."
Gooch (42) and Alec Stewart (34) set the pattern by putting on 84 in just 17 overs after Salim Malik, deputising for sick captain Javed Miandad, had won the toss and put the home side in.
Waqar Younis finally got them both, but his successes, via an inside edge and a mistimed hook, only unleashed yet more punishment on Pakistan.
Man-of-the-match Robin Smith, showing power and determination, blasted 77 off 72 balls and with Neil Fairbrother contributing 62 off 63 deliveries, 129 runs were added in 18 overs.
When the pair fell to Aqib Javed, Graeme Hick produced the most spectacular innings of all with 63 off just 42 balls, helped by two sixes and seven fours.
The man who has resembled a tortured soul on the Test stage once again revelled in the freedom one-day cricket allows.
By motoring to 50 from 34 balls, Hick recorded the fastest half century in the nine-year history of the Texaco Trophy.
Faced with such a huge total and without key middle-order batsman Miandad laid low by stomach trouble - Pakistan responded with little conviction.
The match was finished as a contest before the end of the seventh over, by which time Phil DeFreitas, England's best bowler with 3-33, had struck twice and Chris Lewis once to leave the tourists reeling at 3-27.
At one stage it looked as though Pakistan might do even worse than Sri Lanka, who lost to Australia by 232 runs at Adelaide in 1985.
They managed to avoid that humiliation thanks to Malik's 45 and some late-order resistance, notably from Rashid Lastif (29) and Ijaz Ahmed (23).
But England still polished them off with more than eight overs to spare and will now be looking to complete a clean sweep by winning at Lord's on Saturday and at Old Trafford on Monday.
