Salman Ali Agha (Pakistan Captain): "I am always smiling. It was a complete team performance. We have been really good in this series and we have a
It doesn't matter if we win or lose. Winning is important but working according to plans is off a higher importance.
The way our spinners bowled throughout the series, the way Haris bowled and how Hasan Ali showed character in the last over, makes me feel great as a captain.
Whatever series we play, it is important for us. For me, it is more important for us to follow the process. If we follow the process, then we will win more often."

Shai Hope (West Indies Captain): "Firstly, I must commend the bowlers for their effort throughout the series. Felt that we could still chase down 190 but if one has to be critical, maybe we conceded a few runs extra. We are seeing progression but just need to be consistent. We are trying to have a complete cricket game. As I said, I am seeing progression but I am looking for a complete game.
Alick Athanaze showed his class and Jewel Andrew in the first game as well. If you want to compete against the best teams, you have to be consistent. There wasn't much time between the games, so we didn't have plenty of time to discuss or make detailed plans. But no excuses, we have to find ways to get better. The fans want results, hopefully we can do that soon."

Mohammad Nawaz (Player of the series): "When you get these kind of conditions, then the plans get simpler. The conditions favored spinners and you just had to bowl in the right areas.
I did new ball before as well, in my career. Caribbean people are strong, so I had to be cautious about my line and length.
I think, these days if you bowl at one line and length then the batters can predict you easily. So, you have to outsmart the batsman.
My favourite all rounder is Yuvraj Singh. I grew up watching him a lot."

9:07 AM IST, 11:37 PM Local Time: Sahibzada Farhan and Saim Ayub line Pakistan up for a series win. Sufiyan Muqeem, with his economic spell, ensured West Indies doesn't get to the total.
Salman Ali Agha, Captain of Pakistan, won the toss and opted to bat first, looking to put up a strong total and put the hosts under pressure. Mike Hesson, before the match, also hinted towards posting a total over 10 runs above the par score.
Saim Ayub and Sahibzada Farhan opened the innings for Pakistan in the decider and started off steady. The two batters were rock solid and were in no mood to play a rash shot and hit themselves out. After the initial spell of conservatism, Sahibzada Farhan took charge of the innings, taking the pressure off themselves. It didn't take long for Saim Ayub to join the party too, as they ripped the Windies bowling lineup apart. The opening partnership added 138 runs and lasted 16.2 overs, putting the visitors firmly in place in the series decider. Wickets started to fall in quick succession after the first wicket, but quick runs from Hassan Nawaz, Khushdil Shah and Faheem Ashraf contributed valuable impactful runs at the end, taking Pakistan to 189/4 at the end of 20 overs.
Coming out to chase 190, West Indies were off to a flying start, on the back of their young exuberant openers who showed fearless intent right from ball one. Jewel Andrew gave his team a solid start, scoring 3 fours in the first over. After a 44 runs opening stand, he departed for 24 off 15 balls.
Alick Athanaze, the other opener, too went hard right from the start and was mighty impressive. He got to his maiden T20I fifty in 31 balls. Athanaze, ended up at 60 off 40 balls, scoring 8 fours and a maximum.
Pakistan kept themselves into the contest despite the West Indies batters looking to be destructive with their good line and length and the grip from the surface.

His knock consisted of 4 fours and 3 sixes.
Sufiyan Muqeem bowled a sensational spell of 4 overs 20 runs and a wicket, ended up being the pick of the bowlers. Eventually, West Indies fell short by 13 runs and Pakistan has won the 3 match T20I series away from home, 2 games to 1.
