Jos Buttler's sublime 131 and Harry Brook's unbeaten 95 help England crush India in the fifth T20 and replace their opponents at the top of the world rankings.

Jos Buttler smashed a majestic 131 to lead England to the top of the world rankings with a dominant 56-run win over India in the fifth T20 at Southampton. Buttler produced a vintage innings of touch and power following a relatively barren run, recording his highest score in a glittering T20 career. He shared in an England T20 record stand of 233 - and world record for the second wicket in T20 internationals - with captain Harry Brook, who clattered a remarkable 95 not out off 45 deliveries in the hosts' 257-3. England's third-highest T20 international total and highest against India proved too much for the tourists, who made 201-8 as the world champions fell to a 4-0 series defeat. Ishan Kishan and Tilak Varma both hit half-centuries but Shreyas Iyer's beleaguered side, who were shocking in the field, never looked likely to snatch a consolation win and have now lost their number one ranking to their opponents. This is the first time India have gone winless in a five-match T20 series and extends their own unwanted record of six straight defeats in completed 20-over matches, after shock losses to Ireland at the start of a tour to forget. The two sides will now face each other in a five-match one-day international series, starting at Edgbaston on Tuesday (11:00 BST). Buttler came into this match on a run of 18 consecutive innings without a fifty in T20 internationals, during which time he was averaging 15.16.
