England arrived on the final day of the series needing just 35 runs with four wickets in hand to complete a remarkable chase of 374.

But they were blown away on a morning of unbearable tension, with Siraj taking three wickets for nine runs to finish with figures of 5-104.

The dramatic ending was a fitting finale to a series played out in less than seven weeks packed with drama from the first ball.

"It just shows that both the teams came with their A-game and I am very happy to get over the line in this one," India captain Shubman Gill told Sky Sports.

"When you have got bowlers bowling a spell like Siraj, captaincy seems easy."

The series was also a personal triumph for Gill, who scored 754 runs, including four hundreds.
