Indore, April 15, 2006
England finished their tour of India with a seven-wicket defeat in the last one-dayer to lose the series 5-1.
Kevin Pietersen (64), Paul Collingwood (64) and Geraint Jones (53) were the mainstays in England's 288 all out.
Robin Uthappa's 86 - the best score by an Indian debutant - and captain Rahul Dravid's 69 put the hosts in control.
They fell in quick succession but the results was never in doubt once Yuvraj Singh (55*) and Suresh Raina (53) put on 115, as they won with five balls left.

The Venue
Nehru Stadium, Indore
April 15, 2006
The series is likely to be decided by the time the two teams arrive in this city in the state of Madhya Pradesh.
That might be just as well for India, who have won just one of six matches here - including an abandonment on a dangerous wicket against Sri Lanka.
Ian Botham has fond memories of this place, having smashed 122 from 55 balls against Central Zone in 1981-82.
Kris Srikkanth, better known as a dashing batsman from the same era, once took 5-32 against New Zealand here.
