5. Ajinkya Rahane
The Indian vice-captain too will be extremely crucial for India in the final. Rahane averages 43 in the ICC Test championship which proves that he has always scored valuable runs for his side.
He may not have been consistent but come the crucial time in a Test, Rahane has always put his hand up and taken his team ahead in the match. Rahane will be a massive wicket for New Zealand as once he gets set he has the game to score freely all around the ground against any bowling attack.
