00:00 ..performs well, it's a pleasure.

00:02 Yaseer, you were also a selector.

00:03 You tell us, when you were a selector, there were many rumours going around..

00:08 ..that Pakistan's senior players will be given leave..

00:11 ..and some players will be sent back.

00:14 If you want to share something inside, we'll discuss the team's performance.

00:19 Yes, when I was a selector, my first assignment was..

00:25 ..to play T20 series with Afghanistan.

00:28 And they wanted to get the senior players to rest.

00:35 And they did that.

00:37 But the output of Semmy and I was that..

00:41 ..we should definitely be concerned about the senior players.

00:44 And whether they want to leave the series or not.

00:48 Because they are your backbone.

00:50 And if you want to feed the youngsters..

00:53 ..then feed them in such a way that..

00:56 ..you feed two youngsters with the senior players.

00:59 It's not like you feed all the youngsters at once..

01:02 ..and the team loses later and that becomes a reason for a bad reputation.

01:09 I don't think that's the way to do it.

01:11 But it was a series with Afghanistan.

01:15 We underestimated the side of Afghanistan..

01:18 ..in which we found out that they won the first match against us in T20.

01:25 And they won the second match.

01:27 But if you look at the recent performance of the team..

01:32 ..if you look at yesterday's match and the day before..

01:35 ..we almost lost that match.

01:38 But thanks to Naseem Shah and Shadab Khan..

01:42 ..who played a smart inning, I think Pakistan won that match.

01:46 You can't underestimate a team like that.

01:48 Especially players like Afghanistan who are improving day by day.

01:52 You never know how they will perform in the next event.

01:55 They have good spin bowling.

01:58 They have a talented bunch of players..

02:00 ..who want to play and improve.

02:03 So that was one thing that we gave rest to the senior players.

02:08 But giving rest to all the senior players at once..

02:12 ..I don't think it's a wise decision.

02:16 Sorry, Yasir. I want to know from you.

02:19 From your answer, I understand that..

02:22 ..when we played T20 against Afghanistan..

02:25 ..Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Shaheen Chowdhury..

02:28 ..they were given rest without any discussion.

02:31 No, I'm not saying that they didn't discuss.

02:36 They did discuss.

02:37 But the output that I gave and Sami and I..

02:42 ..we discussed this with our chief selector.

02:46 Especially when I had a meeting, I told him..

02:50 ..that we have to discuss with Babar and Rizwan..

02:53 ..and then take a decision.

02:55 I don't know what they did after that.

02:57 But we obviously spoke to them later.

03:00 The chairman was there.

03:02 He spoke to them and gave them confidence.

03:04 And then they were given rest.

03:06 So, this is what I'm saying.

03:09 Okay, that's good.

03:10 But you understand one point..

03:12 ..that is being discussed everywhere.

03:15 Pakistan is winning.

03:17 But you're also saying that..

03:20 ..our matches are getting stuck.

03:21 We're getting a close win.

03:25 Is this normal?

03:27 Because if we see in cricket..

03:28 ..Holland can beat South Africa..

03:30 ..UAE can beat New Zealand..

03:32 ..then one day, even Afghanistan can upset anyone.

03:36 Look, Shoaib, I told you before..

03:39 ..that you shouldn't compare Afghanistan's team..

03:42 ..with Holland and them.

03:44 Because they're a subcontinent team.

03:47 And all these players..

03:49 ..if you look at their players..

03:50 ..if you look at Gurbaz, he scored 150 in the last match.

03:53 He played very clean innings.

03:55 He played quality innings.

03:56 And Pakistan's bowling..

03:59 ..our top fast bowlers..

04:01 ..Shaheen, Naseem Shah..

04:03 ..any batsman..

04:05 ..playing from the top..

04:07 ..playing openly isn't easy.

04:09 Especially on pitches like Sri Lanka..

04:10 ..where the ball sticks.

04:12 Where the ball comes from the back.

04:13 There's a little wear and tear.

04:15 So, I'm saying that..

04:18 ..if Afghanistan's team is visible..

04:20 ..if they're provided backup on time..

04:24 ..with players coming from behind..

04:26 ..then they'll play even better matches in the coming days.

04:29 And they'll give even better results..

04:32 ..which will be very surprising.

04:35 And they're visible..

04:39 - They're visible. - Consistency.

04:41 - Consistency. - Either you..
