Mominul
Haque,
Bangladesh
Captain:
It
was
a
team
work,
everyone
was
keen
to
win
this
match.
Everyone
put
in
their
support
in
all
departments.
We
won
because
of
our
bowlers,
they
bowled
in
the
right
areas
and
tried
to
follow
the
process
as
well.

“We
know
when
the
sun’s
out
in
New
Zealand,
the
wickets
spin
and
we
try
to
utilise
these
things.
Ebadot
was
unbelievable.

“Outstanding
effort.
We
didn’t
play
well
the
last
couple
of
times
in
the
Test
matches
here,
so
it
was
very
important
to
put
our
legacy
to
the
next
level
in
the
Test
matches.
Today
I
want
to
forget
this
and
we
have
to
look
forward
to
the
Christchurch
match
as
well.”

Tom
Latham,
New
Zealand
captain:
“We
weren’t
quite
there
in
all
three
facets
really,
Bangladesh
certainly
showed
us
how
to
go
about
things
on
that
wicket.
They
were
able
to
build
partnerships,
apply
a
lot
of
pressure
and
unfortunately
we
weren’t
able
to
do
it
for
long
enough.

“There
have
been
only
two
Test
matches
here,
both
matches
have
been
similar,
probably
a
little
bit
slower
than
what
we
expected
and
did
not
quite
break
up
as
much.

“We
sort
of
knew
what
it
would
be
like,
probably
looking
back
at
the
first
innings,
the
position
we
were
in
–
if
we
get
450,
then
it’s
probably
a
different
story
but
full
credit
to
Bangladesh,
they
thoroughly
deserve
the
win.
It
hurts
but
we
have
got
to
turn
to
Christchurch
in
a
few
days’ time
and
hopefully
we
will
take
the
learnings
from
this
and
apply
them
to
what
will
be
a
different
surface
at
Hagley.

“Every
individual
has
to
reflect
on
their
learnings
from
what
was
a
slightly
different
surface
here
and
our
focus
has
got
to
turn
to
Hagley
and
hopefully
we
can
put
up
a
good
performance
there.”

Ebadot
Hossain,
Player
of
the
match:
“First
of
all
thanks
to
Allah.
Secondly,
in
New
Zealand
soil,
our
brothers
and
teams
didn’t
get
win
in
the
last
21
years.
We
set
a
goal
this
time.

“We
raised
our
hand.
We
have
to
beat
New
Zealand
in
their
own
soil.
They
are
Test
champions,
our
next
generation
has
to
beat
New
Zealand.

“In
the
last
two
years,
I
am
working
with
Ottis
Gibson.
Conditions
are
always
flat
at
home.
We
are
still
learning
how
to
bowl
and
reverse
in
away
conditions.
I
am
trying
to
hit
the
top
of
the
stumps.

“I
needed
to
be
a
little
patient
for
success
to
come.
I
am
a
soldier
of
Bangladesh
Air
Force
so
I
know
how
to
do
the
salute.
It
was
a
long
story,
from
volleyball
to
cricket.
I
am
enjoying
cricket,
representing
Bangladesh
and
Bangladesh
Air
Force.”
