Headingley: Scoreboard after India were allout at 253 against England chasing the target of 295, thus losing the 5th ODI by 41 runs but winning the 5-match series by 3-1 here at Leeds, Headingley on Friday.
England avoided a whitewash by India in their one-day series by winning the fifth and final match by 41 runs mainly due to Joe Root's 113 on his home ground.
Powered by Root's second ODI century, England posted 294-7 after being put into bat at Headingley to give the world champions a challenging target for the first time in this lopsided series.
Ajinkya Rahane (0) and Virat Kohli (13) fell cheaply to James Anderson early in the reply before Moeen Ali's offspin accounted for Shikhar Dhawan (31) and Suresh Raina (18), leaving India on 91-4 and well behind the run rate.
Ambati Rayudu's 53 and some big late hits from Ravindra Jadeja (87) couldn't stop England bowling out India for 253 to end a miserable series on a high.
