Hamilton: While India created history by winning the T20 series against New Zealand 5-0, KL Rahul also became part of history when he registered the most runs in a T20 bilateral series.

There was one more record—Rahul's Karnataka teammate Manish Pandey—who is often overshadowed in a star-studded batting line-up. Pandey achieved a unique feat by being unbeaten for the seventh consecutive time in T20 cricket, the first one (2 not out) being in the third match of the 2019-20 series against the West Indies in Guyana last August, followed by a sequence of 22, 31 14, 14, 50 and 11 in the last game at Mount Maunganui, NZ on Sunday.
