Chennai, Feb. 19 -- Ibrahim Zadran dedicated his Player of the Match award to the departing head coach Jonathan Trott after Afghanistan's 82-run win over Canada as they finished the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 campaign with a morale-boosting win in Chennai on Thursday.

After receiving his POTM award during the post-match presentation, Zadran said, "I would also like to dedicate this Player of the Match award to our coach, Jonathan Trott. I've learned so much from him - he has encouraged and supported not just me, but the entire team. Under his guidance, we've achieved a lot in international cricket and ICC events. This is his last day with us, and we will truly miss him. I wish him all the very best for the future."
