Bhuvi was the highest wicket-taker in the ODI series with 8 wickets.

Before heading into the series, the biggest worry for the Indian Team was the form of Bhuvneshwar Kumar. He has looked sloppy since his comeback from the injury which he sustained in the England tour. The swing which made him famous was missing.

But in this series, we saw the glimpses of old Bhuvneshwar Kumar. He swung the ball early in the innings and was the go-to bowler for Virat Kohli in the death overs. He troubled the Australian openers with his swing and Aaron Finch, the Australian captain, succumbed to his swing bowling three times in three matches.

Bhuvi looked a class apart at the depth. He was using his knuckleball to great effect and was nailing the yorkers. He ended up as the highest wicket-taker in the series with 8 wickets at an economy rate of 4.96, which is considered superb in ODI cricket.
