Rohit Sharma was the player of the series in his Test series

West Indies toured India for a 2 match Test series in November 2013. Sachin Tendulkar, who had played 198 Test matches before the start of the series, announced his retirement from international cricket after the second Test at Mumbai.

Rohit Sharma who was already dominating bowling attacks in white ball cricket, made his debut in the said series and scored 288 runs and was dismissed just once in the two innings he batted. Thus the batsman from Mumbai averaged 288 after his first two Test innings. He followed up his brilliant century (177 at Kolkata) by scoring an unbeaten 111 on his home turf in Mumbai and was named the player of the series.

Rohit has been in and out of the Indian Test team and has not been able to replicate his success in white-ball cricket in Test cricket.
