England were routed 3-0 by India in their preparatory ODI series ahead of the Champions Trophy. Here are individual player-ratings for the tourists from the series.
Ben Duckett - 6
3 matches, 131 runs at 43.66, HS: 65
After a duck in the opening ODI of the series, Duckett got better but was unable to put together an innings of significant note. His best was his knock in the second ODI, where he hit 65 off 56 balls, while his blitz in the third ODI came while nursing a groin injury, getting England off to a fast start in the powerplay chasing a big target.
Phil Salt - 4
3 matches, 92 runs at 30.66, HS: 43
Salt was out between 20 and 50 in all three innings he played in the series, reverting to a frustrating trend in the format. Perhaps most frustrating have been the methods of his dismissals, run out looking set to make a big score in the first match, before giving soft catches in both of the final two.
Joe Root - 6
3 matches, 112 runs at 37.33, HS: 69
Root's return to the squad for the first time in over a year showed glimpses of why McCullum would have been so keen to see him back. The 69 off 72 balls he scored in Cuttack was the basis of England's highest score of the series, while the starts he made in the other two matches bred that familiar feeling of quiet reassurance, without a match-defining knock.
Tom Banton - 5
1 match, 38 runs at 38.00, HS: 38
Parachuted in for one-match almost three years since he last played for England, there was signs of the flamboyant brilliance that catapulted Banton to international honours when he was a teenager. One match is a tough judge, and there were warning signs of getting slightly stuck against spin, but it was a positive page in Banton's rollercoaster career to date.
Jacob Bethell - 7
1 match, 51 runs at 51.00, HS: 51
1 wicket at 18.00, ER: 6.00, BBI: 1-18
Now ruled-out of the Champions Trophy, Bethell's 50 in the opening ODI compounds his loss. Picked for his ability to clear the boundary and as a utility player, he showed he could adapt to the situation in front of him better than the majority of England's batting attack.
Harry Brook - 2
3 matches, 50 runs at 16.66, HS: 31
A disappointing series for Brook, who struggled against India's spinners.
Jos Buttler - 4
3 matches, 92 runs at 30.66, HS: 52
Besides captaining a side that were comprehensively beaten in all three games, Buttler's personal tour disintegrated after the first ODI. He was out attempting to hit out against Hardik Pandya in the second and chopping onto his stumps off Harshit Rana in the third.
Liam Livingstone - 3
3 matches, 55 runs at 18.33, HS: 41
1 wicket at 114.00, ER: 5.70, BBI: 1-29
Livingstone's final innings of the tour sandwiched a decent innings in the middle. He faced criticism after the first ODI where he was out slogging at a critical point and scored nine off 23 in Ahmedabad. While he blitzed the back-end of the innings in the second ODI and remains important to the balance of England's side, there are still question marks around whether he can command a top-six spot beyond the Champions Trophy.
Jamie Overton - 5
1 match, 2 wickets at 13.50, ER: 5.40, BBI: 2-27
6 runs at 6.00, HS: 6
The Overton experiment at No.7 looks set to be abandoned after a failure in the first ODI followed difficulties in the T20I series. He was decent with the ball from a one-match sample size, and will vie with Brydon Carse for a Champions Trophy starting XI spot.
Brydon Carse - 2
1 match, 0 wickets, ER: 10.40
10 runs at 10.00, HS: 10
Little to judge from Carse but he was expensive in Nagpur, albeit coming on to a set Shreyas Iyer.
Gus Atkinson - 2
2 matches, 2 wickets at 69.50, ER: 9.26, BBI: 1-65
A nightmare tour for Atkinson, who lacked control and was easy pickings for India's attack.
Adil Rashid - 7
3 matches, 7 wickets at 27.28, ER: 6.36, BBI: 4-64
Operating as the lone frontline spinner, the burden Rashid solely carried pinpointed the difference between the two sides. Without support around him, Rashid matched India's spinners in isolation, albeit with a rough outing in Cuttack.
Jofra Archer - 5
1 match, 1 wicket at 39.00, ER: 5.57, BBI: 1-39
Archer was nursing an injury which kept him out of the second and third ODIs. England will be desperate to get him back to full fitness for the Champions Trophy.
Saqib Mahmood - 4
3 matches, 3 wickets at 50.33, ER: 6.66, BBI: 2-47
A decent series for Mahmood in a generally poor one for England's seamers, he generated the most movement of any of the attack.
Mark Wood - 5
2 matches, 2 wickets at 51.00, ER: 6.00, BBI: 2-45
Returning from injury for this tour after playing four out of five T20Is, Wood was by far the best of England's pacers in Ahmedabad after a middling outing in Cuttack.
