India seals the series

India clinched the Hero Honda cup with its win over England in the fourth ODI at Bangalore. They drew curtain to the series by the 4-0 win over the Englishmen. The match was reduced to 22 overs due to rain. India scored briskly right from the start of the innings thereby finding no trouble with the run rate. Chasing the target 198 England batsmen fell short by 19 runs. Shah and Flintoff threatened India as they scored at a brisk pace. They were influential in bringing the asking run rate but after their fall they didn’t find a finisher. Sehwag was the key to the success in this match.
