You'd expect Australia to be more competitive. Join us for it. For now, this is Sagar Chawla signing off on behalf of Pradeep, Vineet Anantharaman and our scorer Naga. Good night!

Harsha Bhogle: India found a player every time the situation demanded one. And every player will look back and say he contributed. Many players grew in this series; the wrist spinners and Rahane in particular. But nobody grew more than Hardik Pandya

Big smile on Kohli's face as he collects the trophy, before joining the team for a group photo. Hands the trophy over to Kuldeep and Chahal - the two wrist-spinners who have been a revelation. With this win, India have also reclaimed their No. 1 ODI ranking, after a momentary slip.

Kohli, India captain: It feels good. It was a really convincing series win for us. Ticked all boxes. We were put under pressure many times and we came back four times to win four games. Happy with the way the team played. We repeated the way we played against Sri Lanka, proud of that. Shows the quality of the side, regardless of the opposition. It's become second nature for them (to win games), the management plays a massive part in motivating the players when we need to find motivation after being 3-0 up in the series. We had a chance to retain the No. 1 spot and we ended up doing well. Bhuvi and Bumrah have been outstanding for us, have been a class apart. Whenever the game has slipped away, they've pulled it back nicely. Hardik Pandya has been the biggest positive. Good headaches regarding selection, you don't mind that. These guys have made it possible by their hard work. That makes my job as a captain very easy.

Pandya: When I went to bat at No. 4, got a few runs, and the team won the series. There is always a scope of improvement. I'm just focussing on that, working hard on my fitness. Pretty important to keep myself fit. It's always a pleasure to play against Australia. I was looking forward to this series. Really happy that I got this award, and we won the series.

Huge roars as Hardik Pandya is announced as Man of the Series

Rohit: I guess it was a bit of cramp, the weather has been hot. That's always been my thing - to keep it simple. And that has worked for me. Certain areas I keep working off the field. Nothing comes easy. I know my strengths and weaknesses. Initially it was tough, the Australians changed their plans. They were much straighter compared to the previous game. I would love to have such a record against all the teams. Love playing against the Australians, they're competitive and never give anything easily. That probably brings out the best.

Rohit Sharma is Man of the Match

Smith, Australia captain: Probably a 300 wicket. One of our top four needed to make a big score. Lost wickets in clumps again. Have a few things to look at to try and improve and gain the consistent performances we're after. Just need to get the right balance of the way we want to play and get consistent performances. We've been outplayed and deserve to lose 4-1. A lot of our players have played a lot of cricket in India, can't use that as an excuse. Still got to try and keep a positive frame of mind. India are a very good cricket team, they've got a very good balance. We have six or so days until the 3-match T20I series. We'd like to go home with a trophy.

Harsha Bhogle: India made a sluggish pitch look easy with an excellent run chase. It is not always that the Aussies are dominated but they were here

Oh he can't stop smiling. Here's the head coach, Ravi Shastri: If you want to be rated as a good team you've got to be relentless. We repeated the job on multiple occasions and that is how we were ruthless in this series. Hitman (Rohit) did a superb job for us in the match, he was brilliant. The death bowling is tremendous. It is all down to skills, when you have bowlers like these, they bring you back in the final overs. They complement each other really well, they have experience, have different actions and hit their yorkers to perfection. Hardik is someone who can take on the bowling right from the start, he is a floater for us. I haven't seen striking like that, probably Yuvraj in his youth but this guy is special and still has the exuberance of youth. We can raise the bar in the fielding and we can seize the big moments. We also need batsmen to carry on after they score 60s and 70s, quite like what Rohit did today.

Ajinkya Rahane: I think this wicket wasn't easy, 240 was a job well done with the ball, but when we batted, the ball was coming really slowly, I enjoyed my knock today. I always want to do my best, Shikhar and Rohit have done well for us, we love the competition. Me and Rohit complement each other, we know our strengths, we wanted to time the ball and get a good opening partnership, that gave us the momentum. We never took them (Australia) lightly, they are a quality team and we need to recognise that. But we were playing at home and we knew these pitches better.

Axar Patel: I thought I was coming back from injury in the earlier game but I had the confidence of having done it earlier. The good thing is that this is a bigger ground compared to Bangalore and I used my variations to get them out. This Australian side is definitely weak against spin. It was easier to bowl to the middle order when Warner and Finch, who have IPL experience, get out.

Kuldeep Yadav: It was a tough series for me. I prepared well before the first game and it is difficult to bowl against these batsmen. We always look for wickets, all the spinners look to take wickets in the middle order. After my Test debut for India things have changed, I am getting a lot more chances and it is great to be part of a winning team.

India's spinners were brilliant all series, and today was no different as they shackled Australia in the middle. Bhuvi and Bumrah, coming back from their match off, once again demonstrated their expertise in the death overs as Australia were restricted to a below par score - not for the first time. Once that opening partnership between Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane got going, the result soon became an inevitability. Rohit even kicked on for his 14th ODI hundred, to hasten the end.

20:45 Local Time, 15:15 GMT, 20:45 IST: Handshakes in the dressing room, big roars from the crowds. Another comprehensive win from the home team to drown the Bengaluru blip. Their ODI juggernaut keeps getting stronger and stronger, and it's all rainbows and sunshine right now. There was a lot of spice in the Test matches between these two earlier this year, but this ODI series has been more of a whimper, and that can be seen in the body language as the teams line up to shake hands. A one-sided series rarely has the animosity which a closely-fought encounter can bring.
