Player of the Match: Saif Hassan
Saif Hassan (Player of the Match): "Yeah obviously, happy to contribute for the team. Hopefully, we can continue with this form.
No, last one-two years, I'm playing like this, I'm trying to enjoy my batting.
In the last tournament, I opened. But in this one, I was told to bat at No.3. so, I had a clear plan.
Yes, the bowlers have been exceptional, you can see, this ground is small, and they have done a brilliant work for the last 2-3 months. Thank you."

Player of the Series: Nasum Ahmed
Nasum Ahmed (Player of the Series): "No, this ain't my best. There have been two more series- against Australia and New Zealand I have done well.
I tried to take the benefit of the wicket. It was on the slower side and capitalise on it.
Yeah, I'm very happy."

Rashid Khan (Afghanistan Captain): "We played bad cricket and they played outstanding cricket throughout the series with bat, ball and in the field. We were so much behind and missed so many catches. Bowling-batting is different but we were so far behind in fielding.
In T20 as a batting side when you go in there you have to have a positive mindset. We haven't shown the intent which we are famous for. We were not too aggressive and that's why we haven't had good starts. We have to look into it. As soon as we have a good start, we have a good lower order that can take us to a good total. They always come in the middle and they need to play out. We need to come back stronger.
[on making a challenge in T20 WC] The skill and talent is there. It's about the right frame of mind. It is much needed. It is about reading the condition really well and knowing what is required. The talent is there in Afghanistan. It's about how you use it in different conditions. We have only 8-9 games till the World Cup.
[On the debutants] They are the future of Afghanistan. They have done well in domestic and have the talent and skill. Bashir is a very good bowler. Abdullah has got pace. Team is struggling, they have the talent. It is about time they have a bright future."

Jaker Ali (Bangladesh Captain): "The boys know how to manage after a disappointing Asia Cup. If you see the series, we did a good job as a fielding side. Bowlers did a very good job making it easy for the batters.
All are capable and good players. The need belief that they are the best and they can perform well. They need confidence.
[on cleansweep] It's a great feeling. We know they have great spinners. We prepared with the bat and we knew what we could do better. Everyone did their job cleanly.
Every time the crowd supports us everywhere. Big thanks to them."

That's it from a fantastic bilateral T20I series. Neck-to-neck encounters but the result reflects a complete Bangladesh dominance as they take the series 3-0 in Sharjah! The ODI leg of the tour will commence this Wednesday. That will be it from our coverage as well.
