    Hamid Hassan played in Afghanistan's first ever game, their first World Cup win and again today. Him being injured made a massive difference. They will learn from this.

    Pakistan captain Sarfaraz Ahmed: "Thank you all the fans, they cheered every ball. It is a great win for us on not an easy pitch.

    "We know it was not an easy target. Their bowlers used the conditions very well. Everyone chipped in, it was good team work.

    "We all know that it is not easy to win our last four games, we go match by match. We will all be watching India v England tomorrow."

    Afghanistan captain Gulbadin Naib: "We fight really well, the boys gave 100% but in the end we missed an opportunity to win the match. Credit to Pakistan, they controlled their nerves.

    "We missed again. You can face a lot of these situations, we are working harder and harder. The matches we have lost, we have improved.

    "It was bad luck [when I went for 18 in an over]. Hamid Hassan was injured, it was very difficult for Pakistan to chase that total on a turning wicket. It was the turning point.

    "We didn't score enough, including myself. To win these sort of matches we need someone to get 80, 90,100."
