22:03 IST: Â Virat Kohli said:Â "It's been a series of lot of positives for us. The team showed a lot of character. Even today we were five down, but two youngsters showing great character to fight and almost got us over the line. Jadhav gives the experienced guys the opportunity to bat freely by taking responsibility down the order. The moment I saw the pitch, I thought this was the perfect way to prepare for the Champions Trophy. Wickets are going to be similar there"
22:00 IST: After receiving the award Kedar Jadhav said:Â "I was planning to play all the six balls. I knew that if I play the six balls the bowler would be under pressure. I was not in a great position to hit the ball and that is why I got out. I think being with Dhoni in the team has helped me to keep things calm. The ball was moving when it was bowled full. In the first game Virat told me this is the time to learn to finish games and that is exactly what I told Hardik today as well. I would have been more happy if we won this game, but it is satisfying. But I can do better than this."
21:57 IST: Kedar Jadhav receives Man of the Series award

18:12 IST: Four!! Short and wide from Jake Ball and Kohli just lifts it over the infield. Looks like we are in for a Kohli special tonight.

13:05 IST: Virat Kohli wins the toss!! India will field in the dead rubber.
13:00 IST:Â Hello and welcome to the live blog of the final ODI between India and England.
The pitch in Kolkata is unlikely to serve up another 700-plus run feast with the renovated Eden Gardens track expected to generated some bounce for bowlers.
England will hope to make the most of the pitch and have a go at the formidable Indian batting line-up, which recovered after early setbacks in the first two ODIs to notch up mammoth totals.
The hosts will hope their bowlers put up an improved show in Kolkata and make sure that they end the series on a high note.
