England could not change their flagging performances. And it meant Australia had made a comfortable series sweep, taking the fourth ODi and the series 4-0 with three ODIs to go.
Australia were boosted in the modest run chase of 220 with a half century by wicket keeper Tim Paine to let the rest of the chase go without incident.
Ricky Ponting marked his return from rest by taking over the reins of the Australian team as captain with a warm up knock of forty-eight runs as Australia helped themselves along to a sedate buffet from England.
In keeping with his run making on this tour to England, Michael Clarke once again guided Australia to a series win with a patient half century with Callum Ferguson to give him company.
