Ravichandran Ashwin took nine wickets to beat England by 64 runs in the fifth and final Test in Dharamshala on Saturday.
With this victory, India won the series 4-1.
Playing his 100th Test, Ashwin ensured that it would be a memorable one as he added five wickets in the second innings to his four wickets in the first over.
England batsmen were bowled out for 218 and 195 in two innings, while India were bowled out for 477 in the same match.
Opener Rohit Sharma (103) and Shubman Gill (110) scored hundreds while debutant Devdutt Padikkal Padikkal (65), Yashasvi Jaiswal (57) and Sarfaraz Khan scored fifty runs.
Perhaps the only silver lining to England’s poor performance was veteran James Anderson’s 700th scalp. He became the first fast bowler in cricket history to take 700 Test wickets.
