England lose series
England slumped to a dismal one-day series defeat after losing the rain-hit fourth encounter by 19 runs to keep India on course to complete a humiliating series whitewash.
Knowing they needed to avoid defeat to prevent India winning the series after being beaten in the previous matches in Rajkot, Indore and Kanpur, the tourists were once again humbled by the ferocity of India's top order.
Put into bat in cloudy conditions, India overcame two interruptions for rain and adjustment in overs to power their way to a daunting 166 for four in their 22 overs, giving England a Duckworth-Lewis victory target of 198.
England's confused policy during the series was then further exposed when, needing nine runs an over, they chose to delay big-hitters like Kevin Pietersen and Andrew Flintoff and were restricted to 178 for eight in reply.
