Talking to reporters at the end of the match in Dubai, Tahir said, “To be honest with you, I don’t know what happened. Sarfraz was playing well, so I was just making some plans. As a team, we really played well. The wicket wasn’t assisting spin. I’ve always believed in variations. It worked for me and the team. I’ve been asked these questions before (celebration). It’s just passion, and I don’t take things for granted. This performance is for my wife and son, who have come all the way here to watch me.”
