Chasing a paltry 124, India rode on the new opening combination of Lokesh Rahul and debutant Faiz Fazal to romp home with 169 balls to spare and register a 3-0 series win.

Rahul remained unbeaten with 63 off 70 deliveries while Fazal's maiden knock of 55 came off 61 balls.

Earlier, medium pacer Jasprit Bumrah took a four-wicket haul to restrict the hosts to 123 in 42.1 overs.
