"Wanted to make use of the new ball as we have bowlers who swing the new ball well" : Safaraz Ahmed
Sarfaraz Ahmed speaking to the media
"We had been losing to them (NZ) but we knew that our team would do well and we made a good comeback today"
"We wanted to make use of the new ball as we have bowlers who swing the new ball well - so we had Shaheen Shah Afridi and Faheem Ashraf bowling together as Junaid Khan was unfit"
"So the tactics was to take wickets with the new ball which allowed us a comeback"
"Imam-ul-Haq's situation is good and he has been discharged from hospital, and we hope he will be fine"
"I believe we played the bouncers really well today"
"Fakhar Zaman batted really well and played shots to all four corners of the wicket, Babar Azam also played well"
"If they have a plan for bouncers then we can also play positive shots and these are not bad options as you play shots that you feel are right"
"We were a little wayward with the new ball but we made a good comeback with our spinners Mohammad Hafeez and Shadab Khan who controlled the game in the middle"
"But then when Shaheen Shah Afridi and Hasan Ali took wickets that was also very good"
