5. Ravindra Jadeja (India): Four wickets at an average of 14.75. All-rounder only played three matches but was key component in the impressive Indian bowling machine that won the second match in Auckland, taking 2-18 off his four overs. AFP
TOP BATSMEN: 1. KL Rahul (India): 224 runs at an average of 56. The wicket-keeper batsman was deservedly named player of the series. Opened the series with a couple of half centuries in Auckland - a bludgeoning 56 off 26, followed by a more reserved 57 off 50 to earn the man-of-the-match award. Smashed 16 fours and 10 sixes in five matches. AP
2. Colin Munro (New Zealand): 178 runs at an average of 35.60. The Durban-born batsman hit two half centuries - in Auckland and Wellington - and must be wondering how he failed to finish on the winning team in at least one of those matches. Hit 18 fours and seven sixes in all. AP
3. Ross Taylor (New Zealand): 166 runs at an average of 41.50. Another Kiwi who notched two half-centuries - in the first and last matches at Auckland and Mount Maunganui, respectively. Will be frustrated that he failed to guide his team to victory in the fourth game, in Wellington, when he was on strike needing seven runs runs from six balls in the final over. Getty
4. Kane Williamson ( New Zealand): 160 runs at 53.33. Black Caps skipper missed the final two matches after picking up shoulder injury, but still contributed two half centuries, cracking 12 fours and 10 sixes.. His 95 in the third match in Hamilton was the top individual knock of the series. Getty
5. Shreyas Iyer (India): 153 runs at an average of 51. The second Indian player to average over 50 for the series with his 58 in the opener earning him the man-of-the-match gong. Also contributed important knocks in the victories in the second match in Auckland (44) and Mount Maunganui (33 not out). Getty
TOP BOWLERS: 1. Shardul Thakur (India): Eight wickets at an average of 19.62. Topped the wicket-taking chart for the series and made important contributions at key moments. None more so than his stunning final over in the fourth match, in Wellington, that denied New Zealand an almost certain victory. AFP
2. Jasprit Bumrah (India): Six wickets at average of 21.50. India's premier strike bowler was back to his best for the final match of the series in Mount Maunganui, taking three wickets for a miserly 12 runs to earn the man-of-the-match award. Had one bad day at the office in the third game, in Hamilton, going for 62 runs off five overs - after bowling the Super Over - but was generally ruthlessly economical. AP
3. Ish Sodhi (New Zealand): Six wickets at an average of 24.33. The leg-spinner can be relatively pleased with his efforts. His 3-26 in the fourth match, in Wellington, were the best figures by a Black Caps bowler over the five matches. AFP
4. Hamish Bennett (New Zealand): Six wickets at an average of 30.16. Recalled to a Black Caps' squad for the first time since 2017, the medium pacer - making his T20I debut - played every game of the series. Took three wickets in the Hamilton clash, albeit for an expensive 54 runs. Getty
