The elegant Rohit Sharma had tried to experimenting with his game in the first two ODIs but stuck to his original template of wait and attack during his series-winning century against Australia on Sunday.
Rohit (119) scored his 29th ODI hundred to deliver another 'Hit-Man Show' in a successful chase of 287.
"On days like this, if it comes off, it looks good," said Rohit after winning his umpteenth Man of the Match award.
"The first two games, I was trying to do something different, and it didn't come off. Today, I just wanted to be there, and I was able to stay till 35th or 36th over," Rohit added.
The vice-captain praised his skipper, who has been a master of big chases.
"It was an important game, the decider, and we wanted to come out and enjoy ourselves. To keep that Australian batting under 290 was a great effort. Once KL got out, it needed nobody better than the captain himself," he added.
