Ajinkya Rahane – 6/10

Competent and efficient, Rahane supported his skipper and was remained unbeaten until the end. While Kohli was smashing boundaries at will, Rahane was steady and played a fine little innings.

Iyer did not get to bat, but he was superb in the field. He took a wonderful catch of Markram, to cover up for his drop catches in the previous two matches.

Hardik Pandya – 7/10

Pandya had a great time with the ball, as the all-rounder gave away just 39 runs in his 10 overs and also picked up one wicket. Great bowling performance from Pandya!

It was yet another quite outing for Dhoni, as the former Indian skipper breezed through the entire series without doing much.

Shardul Thakur– 9/10

It was a fantastic match for Shardul Thakur, as the pace bowler was in fine form. Thakur picked up four wickets in his first outing of the tour and impressed one and all.

Kuldeep Yadav – 7/10

Another good performance with the ball, as Kuldeep Yadav bowled really well in the middle overs. A wonderful series for him personally.

Yuzvendra Chahal – 8/10

Chahal was at his usual best at Centurion, as the leggie did not give runs and picked up a couple of wickets as well.

Jasprit Bumrah – 6/10

A decent performance by the young pacer, who looks a little jaded after a grueling tour. Got a couple of wickets for his efforts!
