India would have liked the result to be another way around but there are many outputs India can draw from this series

#4 Death bowling

England v India - One Day International Series - Trent Bridge
Umesh Yadav's death bowling issues continue to hurt India.

Who can back world-class Bumrah at the death- the question still looms. Apart from Bhuvi, no bowler has proved his mettle under pressure.

Despite Kuldeep Yadav's wickets in the middle, bowlers failed to keep the run rate down at the death in the second ODI. A blistering half-century from Willey propelled England past 300 which turned out to be plenty for top-heavy Indian batting.

With Bhuvi also struggling at the death in the recent times, and Umesh aul and Thakur being way too inconsistent, the bowlers have their work cut-out.
