5th T20i:
India (224-2) beat
England (188-8) by 36 runsIndia win series 3-2 after Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma cut looseIndia cruised to victory in the fifth and deciding T20 match, handing England a 36-run thrashing, and a rare series defeat.
For 20 glorious overs, and on an excellent pitch, India were able to bat much as they liked – with Virat Kohli the flagstaff about which the others billowed extravagantly. England, set an intimidating 225, started like a train thanks to Jos Buttler and Dawid Malan but, two thirds of the way through, hit buffers named Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Shardul Thakur.
