New Delhi, Feb. 3 -- Indian opening batsman Abhishek Sharma was in fine form as India inflicted a comprehensive 150-run defeat on England in the fifth and final T20I of the series on Sunday. After the match, even England skipper Jos Buttler was in awe of the young left-hander's batting, saying it was the cleanest he had ever seen.

Speaking at the post-match presentation (via ESPNCricinfo), Buttler said, "I've played quite a lot of cricket, and credit to Abhishek Sharma. That's as clean a ball-striking as I've seen. He played fantastically well. We always sit down and think what more could we have done. But some days, you have to give a lot of credit to the opposition. I thought he played brilliantly well."

Despite the devastating defeat...
