Player of Match: Michael Bracewell

Bracewell: When you have a few new guys you always want to do well. That's pleasing. To win the series is added bonus.
Mohammad Rizwan | Pakistan captain: Disappointing series for us. Babar played well, two fifties in this series. I give credit to New Zealand in all three departments. It's difficult conditions for us here but they played good in Asian conditions as well.
Ben Sears | Player of the Series: It was a good couple of days. Pretty exciting, really good experience. It's awesome to play with Duff and O'Rourke, it's good fun.
Michael Bracewell | Player of the Match: It was an enjoyable day. We wanted to put in a good performance in front of a great crowd. The wicket played a lot better than it expected. A great game of cricket. A reduced one, but enjoyable. With reduced number of resources, you get to put your foot down earlier. I was able to play my natural game. The way all of us bowled, it was outstanding. (On his catch) My body is getting a little bit older, just managed to hold onto it with my fingertips.
