Babar Azam | Peshawar captain (translated from Urdu): It is a par score and you need a good start but unfortunately we lost 4 wickets in the powerplay but the way Aamer Jamal played, you never know, those sort of innings are rare. [on his run-out] It was a wrong call, it was too early, miscalculation happens sometimes. Part of the game. I back my decision to bowl first. Here second innings is always chaseable and whatever cricket we have played here, it is good to chase. And after 6 overs, it is easy to play spinners. We have a lot of positives even in bowling, there were short spells which were good. We executed things which we did not do in the last game. It's so cold tonight.
Hunain Shah (translated from Urdu): It is a brilliant opportunity. The team is supporting me a lot. Islamabad is known to support youngsters. I try to focus on my strengths. I was told to bowl on a hard length which is my strength and to hit the seam, which is what I did. [on Naseem] He is very experienced, not only for Pakistan, he is one of the best in the world. He advises me a lot not only during the match but before as well. When I took the first wicket, he came and told me not to get too excited. As a bowler you have to learn every day. I try to perfect every ball, be it length, yorker as much as possible so that I can execute on a given day. [on Shadab] As a captain he doesn't talk, he talks more as a friend. When we get hit for a boundary, he says don't worry and to back yourself. He treats us well.
22:43 Local Time, 17:43 GMT, 23:13 IST: This game was dead and buried when Islamabad reduced Peshawar to 3/3 and then to 18/5. But a tremendous fightback from one man - Aamer Jamal who struck a 49-ball 87 and nearly gave their opponents a scare. Clean striking and he was outstanding.
