India were asked to bat after England won the toss on a pacey WACA wicket. All eyes were on openers Ajinkya Rahane (in pic) and Shikhar Dhawan and for a change, they didn't disappoint.

Shikhar Dhawan hit a few boundaries to show positive intent after struggling through the series.

By the time he fell - edging Chris Woakes on 38 - the Indian score read 83.

Rahane continued his battle and hit 73 before falling to Steven Finn.

There was a batting implosion already underway at the other end.

Batting at No. 3, Virat Kohli had once again failed to make a mark and scored just 8.

Suresh Raina managed just 1 before edging Moeen Ali.

Moeen made full use of rash shots played by Indian batsmen and finished with figures of 2 for 35.

Ravindra Jadeja was guilty of falling for five at a time when seven overs were still left, leaving former India captain Sourav Ganguly fuming at his shot selection and approach.

Even captain MS Dhoni (left) could not do much and fell for 17. India went from 83/1 to 165/9.

It was some fiery hitting from No. 11 Mohammad Shami (25) that helped India touch the 200-run mark.

Mohit Sharma - Ishant's replacement - gave India just the start when England came out to chase.

The bowler removed Ian Bell in the fourth over of the innings.

Stuart Binny then claimed three wickets to leave England in trouble.

James Taylor though rebuilt patiently and managed to score 82 to take England out of murky waters.

Joss Buttler at the other end played a confident innings and scored 67.

Mohit Sharma did strike late to remove Taylor and Buttler too followed. England by then just needed singles to win and they complete formalities in 46.5 overs.
