India had entered the ICC Champions Trophy on 119 ratings points and have moved to 121, thanks to victories over South Africa, West Indies and Pakistan. 
England owed their competitive total of 287 for six to Eoin Morgan and Jos Buttler who smashed 64 runs off the last three overs. 
Buttler's 47 not out off just 16 balls was pivotal in setting up England's 34-run win over NZ on Wednesday.
