After the game, Player of the Match, Green appreciated his team's performance, acknowledging the favourable conditions for bowlers at the ground. He highlighted the effectiveness of off-cutters on a pitch with something for the bowlers. "Great game for our team. This year there have been so many high scores and there is a little bit of something there for the bowler and our bowlers were brilliant from the start. 

"We identified that pace on is easy to play, Khaleel bowled a lot of off-cutters which were gripping and tough to target and we tried the same in our bowling. This is such a small ground and there is something in there for the bowlers which is good to see," he said as quoted by Cricbuzz.
