Rohit Sharma- 9/10

The Indian vice-captain had a good match as scored his second successive half-century of the series and also took a fine catch at slips to dismiss Colin Munro.

Shikhar Dhawan - 6/10

The left-handed opener looked in fine touch and scored a quickfire 28 runs of 27 balls before being dismissed by Trent Boult in the 9th over of Indian innings.

Virat Kohli- 8/10

After being dismissed in the forties in the starting two matches, Virat Kohli finally notched up his first half-century of the series and scored 60 runs of 74 balls. However while fielding, Kohli did drop a simple catch and therefore, a point is deducted.

Ambati Rayudu- 7/10

Rayudu continued his good batting form from the 2nd ODI to remain unconquered on 40 runs from 42 balls.

Dinesh Kartik- 8/10

Replacing an injured MS Dhoni, Dinesh Kartik scored an unbeaten run-a-ball 38 runs and added crucial 77 runs for the 4th wicket with Ambati Rayudu to see India home. Kartik also had a good day with the gloves as he plucked 4 catches.

Kedar Jadhav- 4/10

Kedar Jadhav did not do much in today's game as he did not get a chance to bat and also failed to pick up a wicket in his 3 overs.

Hardik Pandya- 8/10

Back in the team after BCCI ended his suspension following his controversial comments on a TV reality show, Hardik Pandya had a great match as he picked up the wickets of Henry Nicholls and Mitchell Santner and also pulled off a blinder of a catch to dismiss New Zealand's biggest threat Kane Williamson.

Bhuvneshwar Kumar- 6/10

Bhuvneshwar Kumar was once again good with the ball as he picked up 2 wickets for 46 runs in his 10 overs.

Kuldeep Yadav- 5/10

For the first time in the series Kuldeep Yadav went wicketless, but still delivered an economical spell of 8-0-39-0.

Shami continued his brilliant form and was the best bowler on display in today's match as he picked up 3 wickets including the important wicket of Ross Taylor to derail the New Zealand innings.

Yuzvendra Chahal- 7/10

Like all the Indian bowlers, Chahal also had a good match as he picked up the crucial wickets of Kane Williamson and Tom Latham in his 9 overs spell.
