India's traffic-delayed team never recovered. Jos Buttler smashed 131 off 64 balls and Harry Brook stayed unbeaten on 95, their 233-run stand the highest second-wicket partnership in England's T20I history, as the hosts posted 257/3 and won by 56 runs at Southampton.
It completed a 4-0 sweep — India's worst-ever T20I series defeat — and pushed England to No.1 in the ICC rankings, past defending champions India. Shreyas Iyer, now 0 for 7 as captain in the toss department, admitted his side were "outplayed and outfielded" through the tour.
