Mohammad Nabi | Player of the Series: [on his young son who has come out alongside him here] Yes he loves his cricket. In my mind from the last World Cup, I thought of retiring, if I play one Champions Trophy it will be great for me. Just small contributions from my side to the youngsters and my insight to them will be more useful. Lot of time I speak to Ghazanfar and Nangyeyal on what to bowl. Last series I did not do well with the bat, I worked hard before the series, that was my target to perform in this series and great to perform for the team. Spoke with Omarzai and told him to look for the singles, play straight and boundary will come, the wicket is easy.
Azmatullah Omarzai | Player of the Match: I want to thank Almighty Allah. It was tough for me coming back from the two games, but I was positive hitting the ball where I wanted to. Gurbaz was there, so I was confident, if I miss a few balls, I don't care as Gurbaz can cover. Whenever I get loose balls I go after it. Wicket was slow, the ball was sticking, so I used more variations, I was speaking to Rashid and he told me to mix it up and that was the plan. I never bowled in the last overs, it was the first time for me so it was tough. It means a lot for me, it is my first Man of the Match in my four-year ODI career and I'm thankful to Allah.
22:02 Local Time, 18:02 GMT, 23:32 IST: Afghanistan are flying high. Their third consecutive ODI series win and they are over the moon.
