*India's Struggles:*

1. First 0-3 series loss at home in a series of three or more matches.
2. Joint-most home Test losses in a calendar year (4).
3. Rohit Sharma's five defeats in 16 home Tests as captain is the second-worst for an Indian captain.

*Ajaz Patel's Achievements:*

1. Most wickets by a visiting bowler at Wankhede (25).
2. Second visiting bowler to take multiple ten-wicket hauls in India.
3. Ten wicket hauls (2), joining Richard Hadlee and Daniel Vettori.

*Other Notable Records:*

1. First instance of left-arm spinners taking five-fers in each of the four innings (Ravindra Jadeja and Ajaz Patel).
