wining captain Sarfaraz Ahmed comments,

its was a complete team performance. we were hoping for a comeback and we did that. indeed.we were trying to use the new ball. shaheen afridi is good with that. Imam Ul haq has been discharged from the hospital and he will be fine soon. they way we batted tonight, it was great Babar azam played  the bouncer well. it was a superb display of batting. our bowlers did well to contain the batsman early. spinner did a good job in the middle overs and then pacers took wicket we will try to play good cricket and win the final game.

losing captain Kane Williamson comments

we never fired a shot. scraped our way through to a total. Not the total on this surface. the boys tried hard with ball but but we were outplayed. we definitely need to improve on a lot of areas. we head to Dubai and the surface has a lot of similarities. So we need to address the areas we need to work upon. With the ball the guys did try hard but there were not enough runs. Lockie has pace and under lights it skipped on and he was effective. we don't do that bowl bouncers all the time but today was an exception  as we were well behind the game. we have been in such situation earlier, so excited for the last game.

Lockie Ferguson bagged three wickets after retiring hurt Imam ul Haq with a bouncer that hit his helmet but at no point did Pakistan look out of control in their 210 runs chase. Led by Fakhar, who return to form with a run a ball 88, Pakistan overhauled the total of 209 in 40.3 overs to leave the series with a 6 wickets win in Abu Dhabi on Friday.
