Rohit Sharma (7/10): The T20I series was just another validation of his immense talent and ability to hit clean without putting in a lot of power. Rohit Sharma always comes across as a supremely-talented batsman and in Indore, he showcased why there is no better timer of a cricket ball than him. However, he failed in the first and third match of the series scoring 17 and 27 runs respectively. Sri Lanka should consider that as a moral victory.

Manish Pandey (7.5/10) : In the second T20I, Pandey got a chance to bat in the final over and managed to score a solitary run off one ball. However, in the Cuttack ODI, he was excellent with the bat and after the Sri Lankan skipper put India in a shell after the power play overs through his assortment of bowlers, the 28-year-old helped India get out of the difficult position through his orthodox stroke play. In the last game, while the top order fell like a pack of cards, he kept his zen under pressure and managed to score a patient 32 balls to get India much close before MS Dhoni and Dinesh Karthik finished the game.

Dinesh Karthik (6.5/10): The Tamil Nadu batsman did not get a chance to bat in the last match and after Rohit’s carnage at the top of the order in Indore, he could only face two balls and managed to score 5 runs, including a first-ball boundary. However, he was unbeaten in the last game and was a livewire on the field throughout the series.

Hardik Pandya (6/10): Pandya was the most economical of all bowlers and gave away only 6.90 runs per over in Indore. But he failed with the bat spectacularly in the series and needs to pull up his socks as an average of 10.71 doesn’t do justice to a player who has made a name for himself through big hits in the shortest format of the game. 

Jaydev Unadkat (8/10): Despite being a consistent performer at the domestic level, luck had always deserted Unadkat at the highest level. Having been fast-tracked into Test cricket in 2010, Unadkat had to wait another three years to play a One-Day International and although he impressed in the second ODI he played, picking up four wickets, more opportunities never really came his way. But after doing exceptionally well in the 2015-16 Ranji Trophy season for Saurashtra, and doing well in the Indian Premier League where he picked 24 wickets - the second most after Bhuvneshwar Kumar - at an average of 13.41 and an economy of a shade over seven, he was back in the contention and proved his selection by grabbing the man of the series award in the T20I series. He was parsimonious with the ball in the series and didn’t allow the batsmen any room to open their arms.

Yuzvendra Chahal (8/10): The Haryana leggie was impressive with the ball in Indore as he along with his partner in crime Kuldeep Yadav, shared seven wickets between them to bowl Sri Lanka out inside 18 overs to hand India an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series. He became the first bowler to pick up two consecutive four-fers in T20Is. He was rested for the third match of the series but still ended up being the highest wicket-taker in the series.

Jasprit Bumrah -(6.5/10): Bumrah, the spearhead of the attack, was surprisingly silent in the series and failed to pick up a wicket in the two matches he played. But that didn’t take away his importance as he led the way with parsimonious bowling display. He would have loved to come back in wickets at the Wankhede, but the team management decided to rest him for the match.  

Mohammed Siraj (6/10): The Hyderabad pacer has continued his disastrous run of form in the international cricket and yet again failed to leave a mark. His four overs cost India 45 runs and although he picked up a wicket, that wouldn’t have given him a sound sleep given Basil Thampi is eagerly awaiting on the bench.
