Right, that's all from us for today. We'll be back again tomorrow to bring you all the action from the final of the tri-nation. Do join us for that. Until then, it's goodbye.

Babar Azam: Definitely I'm happy. We are playing well, a win always gives you confidence. We weren't up to the mark with the ball. Me and Rizwan started well and Nawaz was outstanding. We were waiting for our middle order to step up and win us a match. Looking forward to the final and carrying momentum from this game

Shakib al Hasan: It's been difficult (on the series). We played our best game today. We could have scored more in the last over with the bat. The position we were in we could have scored more but if you gave me 170 at the start of the innings, I'd have taken that. We're clear on our plans for the World Cup. My bowling's not been up to the mark.

Mohammad Rizwan is the player of the match: Credit to Bangladesh's bowlers. They bowled really well. We wanted to keep wickets in hand in the first 10. I'd like to credit Mohammad Nawaz as he made it easy in the end. Nawaz's innings changed the momentum. Obviously, the win gives us confidence. New Zealand is playing at home (on the final tomorrow) but we have confidence.

Mohammad Nawaz took a beating with the ball but his cameo with the bat has helped Pakistan get over the line. Mohammad Rizwan was solid as ever, nearly batting through the innings, but had it not been for Nawaz's timely hitting, Pakistan might have fallen short. Babar Azam was into the runs as well, making a fifty and laying the foundation for the chase along with Rizwan. Couple of wickets late in the chase brought Bangladesh back into the contest but Nawaz held his nerve to take Pakistan home with a ball to spare. Bangladesh will rue their last couple of overs with the bat which accounted for just 12. So no consolation win for Bangladesh and Pakistan go into the final with confidence under their belt.
