#2 Martin Guptill returns to form
Martin Guptill's limited-overs credentials were never in doubt even as he was dropped from the Test side. In this series, he proved that his limited-overs skills are still where it should be.
Guptill made 193 runs in the three games at an average of 64.33. The century in the opening match at Sydney, a blistering 114 that included six sixes, was followed up with a 45 from 33 balls at the Manuka Oval and a composed 34 in Melbourne.
While he will be the first to admit that he gifted his wickets in the final two games, there is no doubt that his aggressive starts have aided New Zealand. He remained the lone bright spot for the visitors in this series.
