Winning skipper Rohit Sharma said:
"Yeah was a great performance. To come out and play like that in the final shows the mental character. Great start with the ball and clinical finish with the bat. I was standing in the slips, and something we take pride in - our seamers have been working really hard. Very very clear in their mind. It was good to see that. Such a performance we will cherish for a long time. I never thought it's going to do that much. Comes down to the skillset of individuals. Siraj has to be given a lot of credit. Rare for seamers to move the ball in the air and off the pitch. He's coming off age. We did everything we could've achieved as a team in this tournament. Look forward to the series that is coming up in India, and then the World Cup. The way Hardik and Ishan batted in that pressure situation against Pakistan, and then KL and Virat getting hundreds. The way Gill has been batting. Guys have stood up at various stages," Rohit stated.
Kuldeep Yadav adjudged POTS!
"From last one and a half years, been working on my rhythm. Being more aggressive through the crease. Loving my bowling. In T20s also the length matters a lot. It's about not thinking about wickets, just about the lengths. Have worked hard on that. Credit goes to Rohit bhai. He encouraged me to work on my speed. When fast bowlers give you couple of wickets in powerplay, it becomes easy for spinners," Kuldeep Yadav said.
Mohammed Siraj named POTM
"No biryani here. Have been bowling well since a long time. Was missing the edges earlier. But found them today. The wicket was seaming earlier, but there was swing today. Thought that I will bowl fuller because of the swing. When there's good bonding between fast bowlers, it's helpful for the team. I was thinking it would be great if I could stop the boundary. My best spell. This cash prize goes to the groundsmen. This tournament wouldn't have been possible without them," Siraj said.

The Men-in-Blue will lock horns with defending champions Sri Lanka (SL) at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, September 17.
Speaking about their respective campaigns, team India’s first game in the group stage against arch-rivals Pakistan yielded no result after persistent showers lashed down at the venue in Kandy. However, a magnificent win against debutants Nepal helped them seal a spot in the Super Four.
Meanwhile, Sri Lanka won both their fixtures against Bangladesh and Afghanistan in the group stage to earn a spot in the next stage of the tournament. In the Super Four, team India became the first team in the ongoing ACC event to confirm their berth in the final of the event after a resounding win against Pakistan by 226 runs followed by a victory against Sri Lanka in a low-scoring affair.
Meanwhile, the Lankan Lions led by Dasun Shanaka earned their first points after a solid win against Bangladesh but their campaign nearly came to a halt after the loss against India. What followed was a crucial match against Pakistan which proved to be a virtual knockout in the race to reach the final of the competition.
Sri Lanka narrowly won the contest in a final-ball thriller against Pakistan in a rain-marred affair to book their spot in the summit clash. Now, the defending champions will look to come all guns blazing against the Men-in-Blue to retain the title. It remains to be seen if Rohit Sharma and Co. will be able to push through and clinch the coveted title before shifting focus to the 2023 ODI World Cup.
