With 10 wickets in the series, Jomel Warrican of the West Indies walks away with the Player of the Series as well as Player of the Match award.

On his batting: "I back my gameplan, once the ball is in my zone, I back myself to clear the boundary. I trust my defence as well, and my ability to rotate the strike." On his bowling: "Just the variation of pace and hitting the same length over and over. Consistency is the key to everything I do."

I think the only option left was to bring the fast bowler on and have a crack (on if he could have done anything better on the first day). They batted well, but that's something that we have to learn. We have struggled to get the tail out here, something that we did well in South Africa and Australia. Even in the game we lost right now, the first day, we were in a position where we wanted to be, just one bad performance, it led to a domino effect, but you can't forget the way we have played right through We have realised that one extra partnership can have a big effect on games, that's what we want to learn quickly. It's a game of all stakeholders, appreciate the players to be willing to throw themselves into the den without being used to it (on their batting failure). We did win 3 of the 4 Tests on such pitches, we did well on the first session here as well. It's important to see some encouraging signs - when Saud and Rizzy got their fifties, I got a 60-ball fifty in the first Test, Babar contributed as well. We might not get those big hundreds, but you need to be proactive, Brathwaite took the game on with his 50 and that's what we need to be aware of and probably be better going further.

On the win: "We haven't played in Pakistan for a number of years, but we haven't won here in a while, so to come here and do it as a young group is incredible." 

On being brave with the bat: "On this pitch, there's a ball with your name on it around the corner. We did that with the bat in the second innings, and it was good to see. It was a good experience. When you get on better pitches, you can have a similar mindset and it will help you in the long run." 

On Warrican: "He always says he's one of the best players of offspin in the Caribbean, it's good to see him get some runs. Him and Motie in the first innings really set the game up for us. He's been in and out for a long time, but he showed his class, and he's here to stay."
