Nigar Sultana (Bangladesh Women Captain): "I think from the very first game we were on the back foot and we didn't bounce back. I totally surprised by the way we played."
Player of the Match: Kim Garth.
Kim Garth (Player of the Match): "Bowled well today. Bowled with nice rhytm and bowled well as a group. Happy to get the job done. Yes, pretty good to look into the World Cup and hope to do well in the coming games. Happy with my performance today."
Player of the Series: Ashleigh Gardner
Ashleigh Gardner (Player of the Series): "It has been a challenging series for us. Bangladesh have challenged us very well throughout the series. I guess, we have assessed the conditions well enough as we will be back here in a short space of time. Now we will look forward to the T20 series.
Naturally it spins more in the sub-continent. Different from conditions back at home where there is less turn and more bounce in the wicket. We had to adapt quickly and I guess we did well in doing it, both as a spin and batting unit."

Alyssa Healy (Australia Women Captain): "Yes, 100% wanted it. Championship points were up for grabs and we are at the top which was important. We have to wait and see what the wickets will be for the T20IS. Whether it will be spin friendly. It will help us in adjusting to the conditions and see how it goes. We are well balanced and variety is there. We can do damage up front with new ball and spinners to do the rest. I am sure they will do well. Fantastic to come here and play here against Bangladesh. T20IS will be tight and well contested and we will have to be at our best to win the game. Let's see how it goes."
Alyssa Healy now goes and collects the trophy and then takes it to her team mates as they pose for the photographs in front of camera. The celebrations will go on for a while.
Alyssa Healy becomes the FASTEST to 3000 women's ODI runs (by balls faced).
