“It’s the belief of the dressing room, we believe we can chase anything in these kinds of wickets. We can always analyse the wicket better when chasing. There was a plan coming into this game, we know they have good batters, but the boys executed the plans really well. As I mentioned in the toss, partnerships was the key to winning the game. We had spoken about that, and now we now how to approach matches and win games,” Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka said after the win over Afghanistan.

Afghanistan skipper Mohammad Nabi felt that the side was about 20-25 runs short of a winning total. “We were about 20-25 runs short, and also we didn’t field well or bowl in the right areas. It's a better pitch today than the one we played on against Bangladesh, which is why I said we were a few runs short. We didn’t bowl brilliantly, but we bowled really well. We dropped some catches, which if we took the game would have been different,” Nabi said.
