Fifth one-day international, Headingley:
England 294-7 (50 overs) beat India 253 (48.4 overs) by 41 runs
Scorecard
Joe Root hit a superb 113 as England beat India by 41 runs in the fifth one-day international at Headingley.
Three heavy defeats meant England had already lost the series, with one match washed out, but Root's highest ODI score laid the foundations for victory.
He shared crucial partnerships with Alastair Cook (46) and Jos Buttler (49) as England posted 294-7.
Ben Stokes, who hit 33 off 23 balls, then took three wickets as India were bowled out well short on 253.

What's with the !! in the thread title ? England thrashed India in the Test Series, which is the one that really matters.
