England slide to a 15-run defeat in a gripping fourth T20 against India as their hosts take an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series.

Concussion substitute Harshit Rana has taken 3-33 on debut and India has beaten England by 15 runs to win the Twenty20 series with a match to spare in Pune.

Even though Ramandeep Singh, a batting all-rounder like Dube, was on the bench, Harshit Rana was the name India proposed to Javagal Srinath, the match referee.
