England head into the fifth and final T20I against India at the Rose Bowl in Southampton with complete control of the series.
Having established a 3-0 lead after the opening match was washed out, Harry Brook’s side now has the opportunity to complete a 4-0 series victory.
England can also climb to the No 1 position in the ICC Men’s T20I rankings with another win.
Shreyas Iyer’s team will focus on ending the series with a positive result after an underwhelming campaign.
India has struggled for consistency with the bat, although Iyer’s unbeaten 80 in Bristol offered one of the few bright spots.
The visitors now need a complete team performance if they are to avoid their first T20I series whitewash in England.
England’s batting unit has dominated the series, with Harry Brook leading from the front and Phil Salt providing explosive starts.
Their unbeaten 151-run partnership in the fourth T20I underlined England’s superiority.
For India, captain Shreyas Iyer remains the key batter after his resilient knock in the previous match, while the bowling attack must produce early breakthroughs to contain England’s aggressive top order.
The Rose Bowl traditionally provides a good batting surface with some assistance for spinners as the game progresses.
The latest forecast indicates favourable weather, making a full 20-over contest likely.
