Yasir Shah(Abbottabad Captain)- "Score was gettable. Our bowlers bowled well and as per plans from the start.
We played excellent cricket throughout the tournament. Our debutants were good and they performed well under pressure.There was very little dew here and we should have chased the run today but we can't.
Adil Naz, Fayyaz, Shahab, Afaq all were brilliant. Our seniors like Fakhar Zaman also played well throughout the tournament."

Asad Shafiq (Karachi Whites Captain): "Yes, when match started, we wanted to get to 170. We lost wickets in the middle overs. If we bowl to our potential, we could win this game and that was the talk.
The way we bowled with the new ball. We need to get early wickets. Dahani and Khan started well and that set the tone for us.
Yes, this happens. The situation demanded the fast bowlers to be used. The spinners were there to be hit. I think that was the aim and happy to win in the end.
This credit goes to KCC and the players that have played well with us. Everyone stood up and being counted and happy with them.
Playing the final in Karachi and at National Stadium and captaining the side and winning the trophy is great and happy ending for me.
The youngsters are there and they are stepping upto the plate. The future is in great hands and I can go and retire easily with no worries."
