Pooran is the Player of the match and the series: I definitely love Guyana. I love performing here. We wanted to bat first and get some batting practice. Kyle batted really well and came by leaps and bounds. I ask my players to trust me. They are not always going to like me. The pitch was under covers and if it was ideal for someone, it was Mayers. Odean Smith could’ve put us ahead in the game if he batted well. That was the intention behind sending him in
Mahmudullah: I think we had an opportunity. The run-out opportunity was to be created. The partnership between Mayers and Pooran was crucial. They took the game away from us. We should’ve stuck to our lines and made them hit against the wind and to the longer sides. We were 10-runs short. Our batting department has made its plans clear and bowling needs to improve.
