Craig Kieswetter scored 51 as England extended India s miserable summer with a three-wicket win with seven balls remaining in the third one-day international at The Oval on Friday.
The victory gives England a 2-0 lead in the five-match series and increases the chances of the hosts claiming an all-format whitewash over India, after a 4-0 win in the test series and a Twenty20 victory before the one-day matches.
After being put into bat by England, Ravindra Jadeja hit 78 and captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni got 69 as India posted 234-7.
Chasing a revised total of 218 from 43 overs to win because of rain, England made a bright start but struggled to get over the line with Bopara s middle-order 40 proving crucial. Graeme Swann hit the winning runs.
