India thwart England to clinch one-day series

Whether it be a 50-over game or a 22-over rain-interrupted bash, India seem to have the measure of England as the home team defeated the visitors comfortably again in the fourth One-Day International here Sunday and lifted the Hero Honda Cup.

On a wet and gloomy Sunday, they tamed the English lion at the M. Chinnaswamy stadium, romping home by 19 runs to take an unassailable 4-0 lead and wrap up the seven-match series.

India made 166 for four in the truncated overs after Man of the Match Virender Sehwag hit a belligerent 69 off 57 balls.
