India vs New Zealand, 3rd T20I: Full List Of Award Winners, Player Of The Match, Stats, Player Of The Series

With
this
big
win
in
front
of
a
packed
Narendra
Modi
Stadium,
Team
India
also
clinched
the
series
2-1
and
continued
their
unbeaten
run
at
home
in
a
bilateral
series.
This
was
India’s
25th
straight
bilateral
series
win
at
home.

Having
posted
a
mammoth
234
for
the
loss
of
four
wickets
at
the
spectacular
Narendra
Modi
Stadium,
a
spirited
Indian
bowling
line-up
skittled
the
Blackcaps
for
a
paltry
66
in
12.1
overs.

Shubman
Gill
starred
with
the
bat
for
India
as
the
young
opener
smashed
an
unbeaten
126*
off
63
balls
to
guide
the
hosts
to
a
big
total.
It
was
the
maiden
T20I
century
for
the
23-year-old
talented
right-handed
batter
who
continues
to
raise
his
stocks
across
formats.

Rahul
Tripathi
(44)
and
captain
Hardik
Pandya
(30)
too
played
a
brilliant
hand
with
the
bat
as
the
Men
in
Blue
posted
the
biggest
total
against
the
Kiwis.
Gill
smashed
12
fours
and
seven
maximums
in
the
match.

Shubman
Gill
surpasses
Virat
Kohli
to
become
India’s
highest
individual
scorer
in
T20Is

Chasing
a
humongous
target,
the
New
Zealand
batting
order
was
blown
away
by
Indian
pacers
in
the
powerplay
and
they
couldn’t
recover
from
the
early
jolts.
Mitchell
Santner-led
side
failed
terribly
with
the
bat
on
a
pitch
where
batting
wasn’t
tough
but
it
seemed
as
if
the
pressure
of
the
scoreboard
got
the
better
of
the
visitors.

Skipper,
Hardik
Pandya,
contributed
with
the
ball
as
well
and
finished
with
his
best
figures
of
4/16
and
got
support
from
the
other
pacers
as
no
visiting
batter
could
live
up
to
the
expectation.
Daryl
Mitchell
(35
off
20)
was
the
last
wicket
to
perish
and
the
highest
scorer
for
the
Kiwis
in
the
big
run
chase.

With
this
win,
the
Men
In
Blue
continued
their
dominance
at
home.
Despite
losing
the
first
game,
they’ve
come
back
strongly
to
win
back-to-back
matches
and
won
the
series.

IND
vs
NZ
3rd
T20I:
Who
said
what
at
the
post-match
presentation?

Player
of
the
match,
Shubman
Gill:
It
feels
good
when
you
practice
and
it
pays
off.
I
was
backing
myself
to
score
big.
Didn’t
happen
in
the
Sri
Lanka
series,
but
happy
to
see
it
work
out
now.
Everybody
has
a
different
technique
to
hit
sixes.
Hardik
bhai
told
me
to
play
my
game,
not
do
anything
extra
and
he
kept
backing
me.
When
you
represent
your
country,
there
is
no
fatigue.
It
was
my
dream
to
play
for
India,
and
I
am
very
fortunate
to
be
part
of
the
team
in
all
three
formats.

Losing
Captain,
Mitchell
Santner:
It
was
disappointing.
It
would
be
nice
to
take
the
trophy
but
credit
to
India,
they
played
outstanding.
Some
of
their
guys
are
in
great
nick
at
the
moment.
It
is
tough
to
win
when
you
lose
5
in
the
powerplay.
It
can
be
challenging
when
the
ball
is
swinging.
If
you
look
at
the
way
India
played,
they
took
their
time
early
on
and
when
it
got
flat,
they
really
had
a
go
at
us.
(On
the
World
Cup
later
this
year)
I
guess
that
time
of
the
year
there
will
be
some
dew
around,
most
teams
might
bowl
first.
We’ve
seen
some
great
wickets,
if
it
is
like
that
in
October
it
will
be
a
great
World
Cup
to
be
part
of
and
to
learn.
I
think
320
would
be
the
score
we’d
want
to
restrict
teams
to
then.

Player
of
the
Series
and
Winning
Captain,
Hardik
Pandya:
I
don’t
mind
winning

(on
winning
the
player
of
the
series
award),
but
there
were
so
performances
here
that
were
exceptional.
This
Man
of
the
Series
and
trophy
goes
out
to
the
whole
support
staff,
I’m
happy
for
all
of
them.
(On
trying
things
out
of
the
box)
Not
to
be
honest,
I
always
play
the
game
like
this.
I
try
to
read
what
is
required,
not
have
preconceived
ideas.
In
my
captaincy,
I
look
to
keep
it
simple
and
back
my
gut.
I
have
a
simple
rule
–
if
I
go
down,
I
will
go
down
on
my
terms.
We’ve
spoken
about
taking
challenges.
When
we
played
the
IPL
final,
we
felt
the
second
innings
was
more
spicy
but
on
this
surface
today
I
wanted
to
make
it
a
normal
game
because
it
was
a
decider.
Hence,
we
batted
first.
Hopefully,
we
can
continue
performing
like
this.
