And with that, Rohit heads off to collect the series trophy with his team. A fantastic afternoon's entertainment. From Miller, KK, Venkat and the team, thanks and see you for the ODIs on ... Tuesday?! Good grief...

6.30pm The Player of the Match is Reece Topley for his game-changing 3 for 22 in India's chase. "Some great knocks today, happy to receive this. Isolate every ball, some batters are set, some aren't set, come up with a plan that will restrict runs or get a wicket. We were never that far away, an unbelievable knock on their side but we had to believe. I was speechless by some of the shots, in awe some of the time to be honest. Looking forward to relishing the rest of the summer."

The Player of the Series is Bhuvneshwar Kumar, who isn't here to collect his award

... so here's Jos Buttler "Good fun, more like what we're used to seeing with the bat. The wicket didn't have some of the pace we sometimes here but it was an incredible knock from Yadav, one of the best hundreds I've seen. Guys backed their yorker, a bit of lateral movement. Delighted for those guys. Mo was really keen to bowl [the penultimate over], a selfless character and keen to go with him."

Rohit Sharma: "It was a fantastic chase, to show that fight is something we are really proud of. SKY loves this format, wide range of shots, unorthodox, never lets the tempo lose, grown as a player, going from strength to strength. Certain plans we wanted to execute but those guys put us under pressure through the innings. Partnership in the middle put us on the back foot, on a ground like that you back yourself but we came up short.'

"We don't want to be a team that sits on laurels,' he adds, with the World Cup now 98 days away.

6.26pm The presentations will be coming up shortly.

Dhaval : "The fight India showed after being reduced to 31-3 inside the powerplay was incredible. Still feel we need Kohli in the side for a big stage like the WC. His experience and expertise will be crucial."

Faisal : "India managing to remain in the game even after being 34/3 after the PP is a positive, but the lack of support from the other end was worrying.."

6.15pm So handshakes all round. India take the series, but England claim the consolation win for a 2-1 series scoreline, and in a match of 413 runs in precisely 40 overs. Can't ask for much more than that!

So in the end, Dawid Malan's 77 from 39 balls trumped Suryakumar Yadav's 117 from 55, but mostly because of the relative contributions from those around the main men. Aside from Shreyas Iyer's 28 from 23, no-one else made more than 11 for India, and that was down to the breakthroughs at the top, with Willey and Topley outstanding. Gleeson capped a fine first series with a gutsy death over, and there was an impressive display of wristspin from Ravi Bishnoi too. Fun and games all round!

Barath: "Smart captaincy by Buttler. Let Moeen bowl with 5 fielders outside the circle and trusted Jordan to manage with 4. "

Afeef: "Livingstone's 103 vs Pakistan at Trent Bridge in 2021 and Suryakumar's 117 vs England at Trent Bridge in 2022 - 2 magnificent T20 knocks while chasing that couldn't get their teams over the line."

Jordan to Patel, no run, yorker again, swinging onto the toes, that's an excellent ball at any moment, not least now
