England secured victory in this NatWest series with two games still to play.

A comprehensive performance, begun in emphatic style by Bell & Prior, continued by Flintoff's excellently paced innings (with help from Patel), and then finished with 5 wickets for the Notts left-arm spinner.

The situation now is that if England win the remaining games, they'll rise to second in the world - a position they have never occupied!
