Player Of Match QuoteAjaz Patel | Man of the Match: For me my gameplan was pretty simple. Obviously the scoreboard didn't look too simple but we just kept plugging away. We as a unit believed that we could do something special and it all went our way. A lot of credit goes to the environment we have; it is a very relaxed environment we have and we look to keep things nice and simple. In terms of pressure on my debut, I have put in a lot of hard work and I felt like I was ready and just left the rest to the Almighty. I only looked to hit my areas and make use of that wicket because it is not everyday that we get pitches like these. It is a great feeling to pull off such wins in the final innings for your country; just a great dream come true. Pakistan have many good
