Sahibzada Farhan in the post-match presentation said, "Whenever I make runs, my team wins, and I am very happy with that. The conditions weren't different, but Saim Ayub and I wanted to take the game on and keep scoring whenever there was an opportunity. I enjoy batting with Saim, we help each other, we are looking forward to forge many more century partnerships. Happy to have won two out of the last three series."
Farhan was named Player of the Match for his brilliant fifty, while Nawaz was awarded Player of the Series.
Pakistan skipper Salman Agha praised his side for the series victory and said it was a complete team performance, throughout the series we were very good.
"Complete team performance, throughout the series, we were very good. We just want to keep improving and keep moving forward. For me, it doesn't matter win or lose, yeah, winning is very important, but as long as we keep improving and keep doing the right things, that's what matters," Salman Agha said.
