England completed a series whitewash over India when they won the fourth test by an innings and eight runs on the final day at the Oval.
India, following on in their second innings, collapsed to 283 all out in the second session after Sachin Tendulkar had been dismissed nine runs short of a 100th international century.
Tendulkar added 144 for the fourth wicket with nightwatchman Amit Mishra, who compiled a test best 84 before he was bowled by Graeme Swann.
Seven wickets fell for 21 runs, including Tendulkar who was lbw for 91 to the first ball of Tim Bresnan s second spell.
Off-spinner Swann, who had Tendulkar dropped on 70 by Alastair Cook at short-leg and Matt Prior behind the stumps on 85, finished with six for 106.
England took over from India as the world s top-ranked nation when they won the third test at Edgbaston.
