Moeen Ali | England Captain:"Very happy. The way we batted was brilliant. It shows that if we stick to the process, it helps. The difference is if we don't lose wickets upfront, we can keep going after the bowling. There were all orthodox shots played, and enjoyed it. This has been a brilliant series so far, and looking forward to the decider on Sunday.
Buttler is feeling good, and we will decide whether we will play him on Sunday. We will decide whether we will take the risk of playing him for one game before going to Australia for the World Cup."
Babar Azam | Pakistan Captain: "Yeah, definitely. I think with the way the pitch was behaving, we were aiming for 170. But, I think we were short by ten runs in the end. We really tried hard but couldn't get through.
They batted really well. There was a lot of dew. They bowled well as well. But we were able to get around 170. The dew made it the bowlers hard to grip the ball. Shadab did well. They came all gun blazing from the beginning. We will come back stronger in the next game."
Philip Salt | Player of the Match: "Definitely one of my best T20 knocks. Good to step up with the series on the line. It's always a challenge to play at the top of the order. Grateful to get the backing from the management and to keep batting the way I play. The competition is great and everyone is trying to put their best foot forward."
