A series to remember - That brings the curtain down on a thoroughly entertaining series. England completely outclassed India to complete a dominant 4-0 clean sweep, giving themselves a massive confidence boost ahead of their next assignment. Harry Brook collects the trophy before posing for the customary team photographs behind the Winners banner. These two sides now switch formats for a three-match ODI series, with the opener set to be played at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Tuesday, 14th July. The action begins at 10 am GMT (3.30 pm IST), and as always, you can join us early for all the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and take care!
PLAYER OF THE SERIES - The victorious skipper of England, Harry Brook, is the Player of the Series for scoring 229 runs in 4 innings. Brook says he had a lot of fun batting with Jos Buttler, adding that they fed off each other's energy in the middle. Mentions that their focus was simply on putting the team in the best possible position to defend a big total, and he felt they batted brilliantly together. Brook says cricket is a simple game, and it is players who tend to overcomplicate it. His approach was to play each ball on its merit, and he was pleased with the way he struck the ball throughout the innings. He adds that he is in a really good place with his game at the moment. Mentions that he is delighted that they have achieved their goal of climbing to number 1 in the rankings. Brook believes that using spin forces batters to generate their own pace and makes them think a lot more at the crease. Harry opines that England's communication as a side has been excellent not just in this series, but over the past 10 to 12 months, and feels that it has played a significant role in the team's success.
The captain of India - Shreyas Iyer says there are plenty of lessons for India to take away from the series, highlighting the importance of understanding conditions, raising awareness and adapting quickly. He believes this was the best batting surface of the series, but adds that the constantly changing conditions demand a different approach from the players. The Indian skipper stresses that communication is key, with the team needing to identify where they could have done better. He also admits fielding remains a major area of concern, especially in overseas conditions with varying ground dimensions. Iyer feels the dropped catches proved costly, believing a target of around 220-225 would have been within reach. Reflecting on the chase, Iyer says India lost wickets in clusters and focused too much on chasing the asking rate instead of building partnerships. He adds that the batters need to target specific bowlers while giving themselves time at the crease. Praising England's performance, Iyer says their execution was spot on, with Jos Buttler playing a sensational innings before Harry Brook's partnership shifted the momentum decisively in the hosts' favour.
PLAYER OF THE MATCH - Jos Buttler wins the award for his scintillating knock of 131 off 64. Buttler says he is delighted to be back among the runs after a lean patch. He felt his game was in good shape during the IPL but was desperate to perform in an England shirt. On Harry Brook, Buttler calls him an incredible player and says it was a pleasure to spend time in the middle with him. Opines that the key for him was to give himself a bit of time at the start, and he looked to back his natural game. Speaking about the surface, Buttler says it was an excellent batting wicket. Adds that the big square boundaries created plenty of opportunities to pick up twos and keep the scoreboard ticking. Reflecting on the series, Buttler calls the 4-0 result against India a fantastic achievement. He says different players stepped up throughout the series, making it a thoroughly satisfying team performance.
Presentation Time...
Hosts delivered the final blow - England had a mountain of runs to defend, and Jofra Archer once again struck early to remove an opener, continuing his superb run in the series. Sam Curran then struck with the first ball of his spell and finished as the pick of the bowlers with figures of 3/36 to leave India firmly on the back foot. Although a couple of partnerships offered hope, England stayed patient, with Liam Dawson dismissing Shreyas Iyer at a crucial stage, while Josh Tongue also chipped in despite an expensive outing. The hosts dropped a couple of catches, but unlike India, it did not prove costly. Adil Rashid also marked his 150th T20I appearance with two wickets as England sealed a convincing victory.
England unleashed a record-breaking assault - Earlier in the game, England produced a batting masterclass, powering their way to their highest-ever first-innings total against India. Harry Brook and Jos Buttler led the charge with a record 233-run stand for the second wicket - England's highest partnership for any wicket against India in T20Is. Buttler ended his lean run with a superb 131, while Brook remained unbeaten on a blazing 95 off just 45 balls. India's bowlers were taken apart, with only Arshdeep Singh keeping things tight, while Prasidh Krishna and Shivam Dube shared three wickets between them. Prince Yadav and Axar Patel conceded 60 and 63 runs respectively in their four-over spells, and three dropped catches only added to India's woes in what is becoming a growing fielding concern.
Bright sparks, but no fairytale finish - Despite losing Abhishek Sharma early, India made a positive start, with Sanju Samson playing a few eye-catching strokes. His dismissal inside the Powerplay slowed the momentum, but the visitors still reached a healthy 65/2 in the first six overs. Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan kept the chase alive with a 55-run partnership before the skipper fell immediately after the drinks break, swinging the momentum back England's way. Kishan went on to score a well-made 56 off 35, while Tilak Varma's promotion paid off with a spirited fifty. However, with the required rate continuing to climb and little support from the other end, the daunting target proved beyond India as they eventually fell well short.
World Champions dethroned - History has been rewritten in emphatic fashion. England have done what no team had ever done before, becoming the first side to whitewash India in a T20I series of three matches or more. Having never previously won a multi-match series against India in this format, the hosts completely demolished the world champions in every sense on home soil, while extending Shreyas Iyer's winless start as T20I captain to seven matches. In doing so, they also knocked India off their perch as the number 1 ranked T20I side, ending their remarkable reign of 1,605 days at the summit and taking top spot for themselves to cap off a truly historic series in style.

Adil Rashid To Arshdeep Singh
Bowls the leg-break, fuller and on middle. Arshdeep shimmies down the track and smears it to deep square leg for a single. England complete a commanding win by a margin of 56 runs and end the series with a 4-0 scoreline. With this win, England climb to the top of the ICC Men's T20I rankings.

From around the wicket now, shorter and another googly. Arshdeep walks across the stumps to play the line of the ball but gets squared up as the ball rips past the outside edge.

Adil Rashid To Prasidh Krishna
Offers flight, full and slower through the air, outside off. Krishna gets down on a knee and drags it wide of mid on for a single. The 200 is up for India.
Who walks out now? It will be Prasidh Krishna.

Adil Rashid To Axar Patel OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Will Jacks makes no mistake this time. Adil Rashid has his 2nd wicket in his 150th T20I. Rashid dishes out the googly, on a length, on middle. Axar uses his feet and tries to go down the ground. He only gets the height but not the distance. Jacks moves to his left at long off, settles under it and gobbles it up.

Adil Rashid To Axar Patel
A bit quicker but the length stays full, on leg. Axar clubs it away to the left of deep mid-wicket. Jacob Bethell is quick to get rid of the ball but cannot prevent the batters from completing the second run.

Sam Curran To Axar Patel
Given LBW but successfully overturned. Out comes the moon ball again by Curran, on a length, landing on middle and leg. Patel hangs deep in the crease to a ball he was better off being on the front foot. He tries to flick it away but plays all around it, getting beaten on the inside edge. Sam Curran is down on the floor but the finger is up. Axar Patel takes the review. There is no bat involved, but the ball is just missing the leg pole on Ball Tracking. The on-field decision is overturned. A fine spell of bowling from Curran nonetheless as he finishes with figures of 4-0-36-3.

Sam Curran To Arshdeep Singh
Super slow ball, on a good length, on middle. Arshdeep backs away, exposing all three stumps. He waits and waits before playing the late dab towards short third for a single.
Into the tail now. Arshdeep Singh walks out to bat.

Sam Curran To Suryansh Shedge OUT!
OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! Wicket number 3 for Sam Curran. Into the wicket, pace taken off, on off and middle. Shedge gets his hands high and swings across for the pull. Skies it behind the wicket, where Jos Buttler looks to settle under it. Josh Tongue also converges from short fine leg, but he eventually leaves it for the man with the gloves, and Buttler makes no mistake.

Sam Curran To Suryansh Shedge
FOUR! Jacob Bethell was interested for a moment there. Full and on middle. Shedge plays a wristy flick and has no intention of keeping it on the ground. Bethell sprints and dives to his right at deep mid-wicket but the ball stays out of his reach and goes away for a four.
The next batter in is Axar Patel. Also, Sam Curran to bowl the penultimate over.

Josh Tongue To Tilak Varma OUT!
OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Fifty and out for Tilak Varma. Josh Tongue picks up a wicket on the last ball of his spell. Pace on again, in the channel, on a nagging length. Not wide enough for the cut but Varma throws his hands at the ball. It takes the outside edge and Jos Buttler pouches it safely.

SIX! FIFTY FOR VARMA. An entertaining knock from Tilak Varma, and while it may not come in a winning cause, it will do his confidence some good. From around the wicket, on a good length, on middle. Varma walks inside the line and makes use of the angle, helping it over long leg for a biggie.
