Mumbai Strapping Australian all-rounder Shane Watson was awarded the man of the series in the seven-match ODI rubber against India which the visitors won 4-2 after the final game was washed out in Mumbai on Wednesday.

Watson, who opened the innings, was third in the Australian run-scorers' list behind vice-captain Michael Hussey (313)) and skipper Ricky Ponting (267) with 256 runs to his credit with an average of 42.66 per innings from six matches with 93 being his highest score.

The 28-year-old Queenslander also contributed with the ball by snaring 10 wickets, the highest among the Australians, at a strike rate of 22.

The prize distribution ceremony was held at the team hotel after persistent rains forced the final ODI at the D Y Patil Stadium to be called off without a ball being bowled.
