David Warner: 5/10

5 innings, 169 runs @ 33.80, HS: 68

Warner provided Australia a solid platform up top with his partner Khawaja, and was twice dismissed while looking for quick runs, but he would still have liked to get a bigger, statement score on tracks that did not have many demons.

Usman Khawaja: 9.5/10

5 innings, 496 runs @ 165.33, HS: 160

Khawaja scored two hundreds and as many fifties to cap off a memorable tour to the land of his birth. He was not dismissed for fewer than 90 and ended with scores of 97, 160, 44*, 91 and 104* to win the Player of the Series award.

Marnus Labuschagne: 5/10

5 innings, 170 runs @ 34, HS: 90

A largely forgettable series for the world’s number one ranked batter after he fell 10 short of a hundred in the series opener.

Steve Smith: 6.5/10

4 innings, 226 runs @ 56.50, HS: 93

Three of Smith’s four knocks ended with him reaching a fifty in the Test series. He adopted a conservative approach, taking 606 balls and playing at a strike rate of 37.29. He had a difficult time on the field, uncharacteristically spilling a number of chances.

Travis Head: 3/10

4 innings, 68 runs @ 22.66, HS: 26

After a breakthrough Ashes campaign, a tough series for Head. He did grit it out for a 70-ball 26 in Lahore, but he failed to reach 30 in what was generally a high-scoring series.

Cameron Green: 7/10

3 innings, 155 runs @ 51.66, HS: 79
3 wickets @ 57, BBI: 1-18

Another encouraging series for Green, building on a superb Ashes earlier in the winter. He batted well – though is still searching for his first Test hundred – and his numbers with the ball don’t do justice to the importance of the role that he performed.

Alex Carey: 8/10

3 innings, 179 runs @ 59.66, HS: 93

Carey had the second-highest batting average among Australians in the series, with two of his three knocks being fifty-plus scores. He managed to excel on low and slow wickets.

Mitchell Starc: 7.5/10

8 wickets @ 34.12, BBI: 4-33

Starc was at his destructive best, troubling batters with swing and reverse swing on placid wickets. In Lahore, he got the wickets of Fawad Alam and Mohammed Rizwan in no time, to set the stage for that series-clinching win. Like Green, his numbers probably do not reflect the extent of his impact.

Pat Cummins: 9/10

12 wickets @ 22.50, BBI: 5-56

The only bowler from Australia to average less than 34, Cummins was Australia’s bowling star. He was lethal in Lahore, especially, ripping through the order with a five-for as Pakistan lost seven wickets for 20 runs. The best bowler in the world for a reason. 

Nathan Lyon: 6.5/10

12 wickets @ 44.91, BBI: 5-83

Lyon silenced critics with a series-winning five-for in the fourth innings at Lahore.

Mitchell Swepson: 3/10

4 innings, 2 wickets @ 133, BBI: 2-32

Swepson made his debut in the series but struggled to make a lasting impact on the outcome. He took two wickets in the first innings that he bowled in but went wicketless thereafter. He ended with a strike rate of 272 and only bowled 10 overs in the fourth innings at Lahore.

Josh Hazlewood: 4/10

2 innings, no wickets

Hazlewood went wicketless at Rawalpindi before sitting out the final two games of the series as Australia opted to field two spinners.
