England vs Scotland tweet report: 'Moeen has saved 20-30 jobs with that innings'

England heaved a huge sigh of relief as they beat Scotland to register their first win of World Cup 2015 at the Hagley Oval, Christchurch.

After the battering they received at the hands of Australia and then New Zealand, this was a much-needed victory for them.

Moeen Ali was the star of the show as he hit a brilliant century (128 off 107) to propel England to 303/8 and then followed up with figures of 2/47 from 10 overs.

In pretty much a lop-sided clash, there were some funny moments where a handshake went wrong between Eoin Morgan and Preston Mommsen during the toss and then Hagley Oval came to life when a streaker ran onto the field.

We present you with some of the funniest tweets from the match:

England unchanged - to err is human to forgive is divine

@piersmorgan After watching the Eng players during the anthem, Eng need an anthem coach. It's the only coach they don't have !

Scotland chosen not to include Cameron Akmal and Hamish Amla.

Wait Scotland isn't England? Isn't Murray British? British isn't English? So Wales is like Scot but play for Eng? #ConfusedNeutrals #CWC15

A slow motion of Majid Haq might stop the game altogether.

Shockingly unfunny performance from England here. Have they choked under the pressure? #ENGvSCO #CWC15

Where's Rowdy Roddy Piper to come on and bowl some left-arm orthodox?

If nothing else England are going to be red hot favourites for the worst 300 of the tournament award if they get over the line here. #cwc15

Those balls were travelling faster than Majid Haq's

@TheCricketGeek Scotland won, if you use Rootmaths and subtract Moeen from the game.

Best. Streaker. Ever. Got past at least six of them

The sad thing is.... he looked the most athletic person on the pitch.
