Same as England cricket 2016 really. Scoring over 350 twice, losing twice. We just can't seem to bowl when we are away from England.

English conditions suit our seam and swing bowlers..in the subcontinent to bowl side's out you really need at least one, ideally two, top class spinners...which we don't have currently.

A valiant effort with the bat today though.

Another valiant effort with the bat today, but it would help if one of the batters could go on and get a hundred. They are very good at getting 50s.

Will be interesting to see what England can do with the ball on a pitch with bounce and early swing.

Willey and Ball might make inroads. Only trouble is, they bat a long way down and it will get easier later on.

At last!

A well deserved victory!

We may have lost the series but England have given the best one day side in the world a real run for their money..

Yes well done to England. Woakes recovered well after the first two balls of the last over. India are the best side in the world at both forms of the game.

Yes possibly... certainly on they're own patch, and their batting's phenomenal..

Been a tough tour for our lads..well pleased they finally picked up a win today.

South Africa this summer... should be good.

Pun off you pair, 20/20 start tomorrow, all action smash and grab.

20/20 is sneered at by us connoisseurs of the full game.

dont worry about anymore puns, I'll moderate it from now for the next 8 hours.

a bit like a night watchman if you like,

They took the phrase "A collapse of Englandesque proportions" to new extremes today, losing 8 wickets in less than 4 overs for just 8 runs.
