14:32 India aim for clean sweep in Leeds ODI
Having already won the series, a rampaging India would look to keep the foot on the pedal and press for a clean sweep when they take on England in the fifth and final One-Day International, in Leeds on Friday.
After the first game was washed out, world champions India have asserted their supremacy in the series by taking 3-0 lead to pocket the five-match series, which is their first in England since 2002, if the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy is neglected on account of a multi-team tournament.
India might consider a few changes to their line-up and give the benched players an opportunity to prove their worth.
Ambati Rayudu has done well in the limited opportunities afforded, but the think-tank will do well to give Sanju Samson a run-in as well.

However, in the past, this think-tank Dhoni and coach Duncan Fletcher has been very reluctant in handing out rest to over-worked bodies.
