7) Kyle Jamieson

Jamieson won the Player of the Match award for his brilliant performance all-around. Its safe to say that he was the difference-maker in the end between both sides. In the first innings, he picked up his fifth 5-wicket haul, before making a vital 21 run contribution with the bat that helped the Kiwis take the lead.

The 6′ 8″ pacer wasn’t done yet. He was hungry for more. Jamieson came back in the second innings to cause more trouble for the Indian batsmen, claiming the crucial wickets of Kohli and Pujara which set the things in motion for the Kiwis to lay their hands on the Test mace.
