Speaking at the post-match presentation, Salman said that there were lots of positives from the series for the Men in Green. He added that it's a big achievement for the Men in Green to win the ODI series against Australia after 22 years.

"I think in the middle overs we didn't capitalize the start, we lost too many wickets. Lots of positives, the way some of the players batted and bowled, these youngsters will come good. It's a big achievement for us to win a One Day series here after 22 years, could've done better in the T20 series but we'll come back stronger. They have been amazing," Salman said.
