Shadab Khan Man of the Match:

"Thanks to Allah and my parents."

"I enjoy playing here. Got some experience at Big Bash, so good to use that here."

"Our top order didn't score well in the ODIs, but they did well in the T20s, so maybe that's the difference."

"I enjoyed my time in New Zealand. Time for the PSL now."


Mohammad Amir Man of the Series:

"Thank you, tough tour for us, and this win is special for us, especially after the ODI series. Happy for our fans."

"In this format we were using our variations. Credit to team management because we've been working hard on those techniques."

"The ODIs didn't go well, but this series win and this award means a lot. Thanks to my family and dear Allah."


Sarfaraz Ahmed:

"Credit goes to my boys. It's not easy coming back after 6-0."

"Just told the boys, 'nothing to lose. We're 6-0, worse case we'll be 8-0'."

"Fakhar was great today, and the wickets in hand helped at the end. The way Haris, Amin batted are excellent."

"Being No. 1 in the world is all thanks to the hard work of my team and my team management. Thank you so much to the crowd for their support."

Waiting for posters to come and tell us it was a fluke series win and a fluke number 1 ranking (not that I read into a t20 ranking)
 
"Mention must be made of Amir also. When the game was on the line in Eden Park and here, he's turned up for us and that's testimony to his character. I've always said he's a big match player and he hasn't got the wickets he possibly deserves over the past year but he's won us games and when the game is on the line, he's wanted the ball and he wants the pressure situations so I'm really happy for him."

Can't call the tour to be a failure for Pak now. Lost the ODI series but won the T20 series. If someone wants to argue that ODI cricket holds more value then it's a different story.

The tour would not have been a failure if Pakistan had won 2 ODIs. This tour is by and large a failure for Pakistan although t20i series win has made it a little more respectable.
