England Won the series by 4-1
England limited overs captain Eoin Morgan said he was "excited" by his team's progress in 50-over cricket despite a season-ending four-wicket loss to Pakistan in Cardiff on Sunday.
That defeat meant England had to be content with a 4-1 one-day international series win rather than a first home 5-0 whitewash.
It also denied Morgan's men, who back in June tied an ODI with Sri Lanka in Nottingham before winning that series, a maiden unbeaten season in white-ball cricket ahead of Wednesday's lone Twenty20 against Pakistan in Manchester.
England may still be fifth in the International Cricket Council ODI rankings but they have made significant progress since their embarrassing first-round exit at last year's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand.
