India registered a sensational innings-and-64-run win over England in the fifth and final Test of the series in Dharamsala, clinching a 4-1 victory.

The side outclassed England on the third day of the Test yet again, bundling the visitors out for just 195 after putting 479 on the board in the first innings.

The series win added to captain Rohit Sharma's sublime record as Test skipper; he has yet to concede a series defeat, winning in five of the seven series where he has captained the side since taking over the leadership role over two years ago.

The series against England presented a difficult challenge for Rohit, as he was left with an inexperienced squad - particularly among batters - for a majority of the games. With no Virat Kohli throughout the whole series and KL Rahul ruled out after the first match due to injury, Rohit had to rely on his young brigade while ensuring his own performances remained consistent.

While the Indian captain did make a slow start with the bat, he eventually played a crucial role in the side's series win, scoring two important centuries. Rohit ended with 400 runs in five Tests, averaging 44.44.

India's head coach, Rahul Dravid, praised Rohit's significant contribution throughout the series, highlighting a particular innings that exemplified the team's dependence on their captain.
