Shoriful Islam is the Player of the Match.
Shoriful Islam (Player of the match): "I am pretty happy we worked hard and won this game. I have been listening to my bowling coach who rectified my errors and helped me to perform better. The bowling partnership with Taskin really helped me."
Fazalhaq Farooqi (Player of the Series): "First of all, congratulations to everyone back in our country. I was not bowling the right lengths in Sri Lanka and I have worked really hard on that. I realized what should I do in this series and we also had a camp in Abu Dhabi that helped me to prepare for this series."
Litton Das (Bangladesh Captain): "Yes, definitely. Before the next series we needed this and we are happy with the boys effort. Definitely. The way Taskin and Shoriful bowled at the start and Shakib and Mehidy, Taijul in the middle overs. The bowlers did the job for us. Yes, there was no run rate pressure so batted sensibly. Areas to work on for us but confident about the next series. Thank you and look forward to the T20IS."
Hashmatullah Shahidi (Afghanistan Captain): "Yeah, we are happy about the performance of the team, today was a bit tough for us as we lost the game, it's part of the game and we will learn from this. I think Bangladesh played well today and they put us under pressure right from the beginning. I won't be there for the T-20 series but my best wishes are always with the team. Special thanks to all Afghanistan fans for supporting us."
Hashmatullah Shahidi now goes across and collects the trophy from Mr Jalaj Younus Khan. Now, he will take the trophy to his team mates for the celebrations. They deserve this win as they win the series 2-1. It was not their day today, but they win the series in the end.
That's a wrap up for this ODI and the ODI series. Both teams will be back on Friday for the start of the T20I series where the first T20I will be played on that day. Do join us for that game and for all other fixtures across the globe, stick around to our network.
