nearly in the block hole outside off, Rabeya bunts it down to long-on for two and get it two. Oh dear, overthrows as well and they get one more. India take the series 5-0 but Bangladesh put up a great fight in the dying moments of the series

7.20pm That's all from the presentation, this game and the series. The Indian team moves along to pose with the series trophy with beaming smiles across the faces. Thank you for joining us today as well, Srinidhi's report will be up here soon, and it's time wrap up from the Sylhet Stadium, that's engulfed by the lush tea gardens. Stay safe you all, goodbye and good luck!
Harmanpreet Kaur: the calmness all the players showed in the series is something I want to take to the World Cup. In fielding we made some mistakes but we know how to move forward. The WPL gave our players a lot of confidence and those results are helping. This series and conditions will give us a lot of confidence and take our learnings into the World Cup and hopefully we'll play our best cricket.
Radha Yadav is the Player of the Match and the Series: I just wanted to bowl wicket to wicket, that's what I had worked on before the series. WPL is helping all the girls, hopefully we'll get some players from Bangladesh as well. I'm trying to bowl in the right areas and working hard on my fitness as well.
Nigar Sultana: We have seen a tough time this series, but today it was a better approach by the batters. Batting is the area we need to work on. We need to work on our approach and intent in batting, like some batters settle down and then get out. Rabeya and Nahida are the bowlers doing really well, Marufa did well throughout the tournament. And Ritu showed us today how to bat.
Radha Yadav: I worked on my bowling for this series and it's coming off well. I want to bowl wicket to wicket, one odd ball was wide maybe. Really nice to play five matches here (before the World Cup) for these conditions and really looking forward to the World Cup.
7pm A convincing victory for India to sweep the series 5-0 after they took the early wickets today while defending 156. Despite that, a lot of fight shown by Bangladesh's lower order, especially Ritu Moni and Shorifa Khatun who made sure they finished on 135, the highest total for the hosts in this series. That will be a massive confidence booster for Bangladesh after they couldn't score 120 even once in the earlier four games. Lots to think about for India from this game despite taking the trophy home - the misfielding, the catches that went down, and leaking those runs in the end despite having reduced Bangladesh to 52 for 5 before the halfway mark. Far from a perfect performance from the visitors, but they'll be pleased with their batting effort today. We'll bring you the presentation soon...
Rabeya goes across to off but that's gone down to leg for a wide
just short of a diving Deepti Sharma at point! Chipped in the air and Deepti ran forward, put in a dive but it landed just before her
angled into the stumps and it's struck down the ground for one
lofted high down the ground, another chance for Vastrakar near long-on and it's gone down! This wasn't easy at all either; she ran to her left from long-on and put in another dive but maybe couldn't reach on time
on the stumps on length, Shorifa swings it down to long-on for one more
swung across the line from off stump to the leg side for one
Sadhu for the last over
Just five off her last over, Asha finishes with 2 for 25
flatter and tighter on the stumps, she defends it back
gets the very toe end of the bat off Asha's loopy legbreak, goes back to the bowler
goes back for the shorter ball and pulls it in the last minute to long-on for one
goes a long way outside off, Asha's line follows her, and the batter slaps it down to long-on for one
comes down to whack it against the turn and collects two to the cow corner
gets an indside edge off the full delivery to short fine leg
37 from 12, Bangladesh have done really well in reply
loopy full toss struck back to Deepti who dives to her right and throws the ball back too, before Ghosh whips the bails off. But the batter has made it back
swept in the air, plenty of cries all around for the catch, among the batters for the running, and that lands safe for a single
stifling line around leg, Shorifa swipes it away to deep square for one
charges down to collect another boundary but she can't clear long-on. Reaches her after a bounce
she goes down and sweeps with the turn to long leg for two more
outside off and punched to cover
Around the wicket to Rabeya
starts the new over with a wide down leg
