Ind 253-all out (48.4 ovs) vs Eng 294-7 | Scorecard

Even though the match looks out India's reach Jadeja is surely giving the fans some entertainment with his amazing stroke play.

He makes room and crashes Finn through the covers for a four before rocking back and cutting a short ball over the off-side for another boundary.

But Finn gets revenge as Jadeja ends up dragging it back on to his stumps as India are bowled out for 253 in 48.4 overs to lose by 41 runs.

Jadeja is dismissed after a splendid innings of 87 from 68 balls, having hit nine fours and two sixes.

England avoid the whitewash as India win the five-match series 3-1. The one-off T20 International match will be played in Birmingham, on Sunday, September 7.
