Indian skipper MS Dhoni said it was difficult to sight the ball in the poor lights in Cuttack after his team's win over England.
"The light was low and it was difficult to sight the ball. However, it was another great team effort."
India raced away to the target of 271,losing just four wickets, to go 5-0 in the seven match series.
"Everybody performed well, especially the bowlers. Our new ball bowlers went for some runs but the spinners did a splendid job in the middle."
Harbhajan Singh picked up one wicket and conceded 47 runs in his 10 overs while Yuvraj Singh in a miserly spell of 10 overs gave away only 38 runs.
Dhoni was also full of praises for Zaheer Khan and Ishant Sharma bowled in the death overs, not giving away too many.
"Zak and Ishant bowled beautifully in the death. Then we were off to a flier by Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar."
"Suresh Raina and me batted well in the middle overs too."
It has been a dream series for India with all the batsmen getting runs and Dhoni said as much.
"It was a pleasant sight to see Sehwag and Sachin bat the way they did. If Yuvraj Singh sets in, he can cause some problems for the bowlers too."
"It has been a great effort by the team."
Dhoni said the most special achievement for his team has been the way the bowlers have delivered on batting friendly pitches.
The wicketkeeper batsman said he would want to keep the momentum when his team travel to Guwahati for the sixth and penultimate match of the seris on Saturday.
