399 for 7 - South Africa's total at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday was the highest by any team against England in men's ODIs. The previous highest ODI total conceded by England was 398 for 5, against New Zealand at The Oval in 2015.
229 - Margin of England's defeat - their worst in terms of runs in men's ODIs. Their previous biggest was the 221-run loss against Australia last year in Melbourne.
6 - Number of wins by 200-plus runs for South Africa at the men's ODI World Cup, the most for any team, surpassing Australia, who have five such victories. Overall, it was the 15th instance of South Africa winning a men's ODI by a margin of 200-plus.
7 - Number of 350-plus totals by South Africa in the men's ODI World Cup, the joint-most alongside Australia. It was the first instance of England conceding a 350-plus total at the men's ODI World Cup. It now leaves New Zealand as the only team to not concede a 350-plus total at the World Cup (among the teams to have played at least three editions).
151 - Partnership runs for the sixth wicket between Heinrich Klaasen and Marco Jansen. It is South Africa's highest stand for the sixth or lower wicket in men's ODIs, surpassing the 138* by Justin Kemp and Andrew Hall for the eighth wicket against India in 2006. It is only the fourth 150-plus stand for the sixth wicket in the men's ODI World Cup.
11.92 - Run rate of Klaasen and Jansen's partnership - the highest for a 150-plus stand at the men's ODI World Cup. The previous highest was 11.70 by Glenn Maxwell and Shane Watson, who added 160 in 13.4 overs against Sri Lanka in 2015.
7.72 - England's run rate during their 170 all out against South Africa. It is the fourth-highest team run rate in an all-out innings in men's ODIs. The highest is 8.19 by West Indies - 250 all out in 30.3 overs against New Zealand in the quarter-final of the 2015 World Cup.
5 - Sixes by Mark Wood during his 17-ball 43 not out, batting at No.10. Only three other batters have hit five or more sixes while batting at No.10 or lower in a men's ODI innings.
