00:00 So, as you can see, Mr. Waqar didn't explain anything
00:05 He didn't give a clear explanation
00:06 He said that the ball will turn, it will swing, it will seam, what should happen
00:10 He said it very simply, run the ball and defend it
00:16 If I talk about pitches, I will have to go into detail
00:19 Why did such pitches happen?
00:21 If we look at the previous matches, there were a lot of runs
00:24 When India and Pakistan play, we know about under-lat
00:27 There is bowling on this ground, especially fast bowling
00:30 So you get a swing
00:33 When you come to white ball cricket, we are not used to the swing
00:38 Batters go for runs and in good condition
00:42 Because they play on good pitches every day
00:45 So it becomes difficult for them to play in this condition
00:47 Then we come to another match
00:49 When India bats and Duneet, like Vela Lage
00:54 Their bowling was amazing
00:57 We saw that spinners have to dominate and attack
01:03 So these changes happen
01:05 But what is the reason?
01:06 One is that it is raining a lot
01:08 And when back-to-back matches are happening
01:10 That's why we keep saying that there should be a lengthy event
01:14 So that the pitches can also get a chance
01:16 And the same thing is that when we played cricket in Pakistan
01:20 We said that matches are happening daily
01:22 And there is a problem with the pitches
01:24 There is moisture and the ball doesn't come on the bat
01:27 So it doesn't feel good
01:28 So when the matches came in PSL
01:30 Then we started making good pitches
01:33 And the boundary was also reduced
01:35 So this is one reason
01:36 So I think this is exactly what is happening
01:38 Spinners will have a big role in today's match
01:40 We have to pray that first of all
01:43 There is no rain and we win the toss
01:46 So that the back-of-mind that if you are batting second
01:50 Or even if there is a delay in the match
01:52 So in such a situation, our first batting or bowling comes
01:57 Which is suitable for us
01:59 And like today there are five changes
02:01 May Allah make it beneficial for our team
02:03 We will talk about the changes in detail
02:05 Mr. Shahid, if we look at the stats
02:08 So there are 155 total matches
02:10 Pakistan won 92 and Sri Lanka won 58
02:12 So clearly the advantage is on Pakistan's side
02:15 On top of that, all the past 8 completed one-day internationals
02:19 All Pakistan won
02:20 That is, from 2015 to now
02:22 We have won all the one-day matches against Sri Lanka
02:26 The surprising thing is that these two teams play so much together
02:29 From 2018 to now, there have been only two one-day matches
02:32 So the gap that has come, the players do not know each other so much
02:36 Yes, the stats are the stats
02:38 But every day is new, every match is new
02:40 The way Sri Lanka is playing cricket
02:42 The way their spinners are running
02:44 The way their middle order showed resilience
02:47 Made a match from 99 for 7 in the 63 partnership
02:51 According to me, Dhananjaya De Silva should be understood
02:54 He also gets a shot in the test
02:56 On a crucial occasion
02:57 And in this match too, Dhunit Vilalage did better batting
03:01 And he showed more responsibility than Dhananjaya De Silva
03:05 So all these stats you are telling
03:07 All the past 8 Pakistan won matches
03:09 But today's match is crucial
03:11 You have made so many changes
03:12 It's a panic-like situation
03:14 But if it rains, then maybe the rain-shortened match
03:17 Will favor Pakistan more
03:19 T20 will be cricket
03:20 In 50 overs cricket, you play a lot of part
03:23 If it is 20 overs cricket
03:25 Maybe they can tolerate 4 overs of Vilalage and other spinners
03:28 And you have selected most of the players for 20 overs cricket
03:32 Absolutely right
03:33 Now, one by one, the composition of our team
03:37 Three are our force changes
03:39 So we didn't have anything in our hands
03:42 We had to do that
03:43 First of all, if we start
03:45 Then Mohd. Haris comes to mind
03:48 And in that, Yunus tell me
03:50 You have a proper opener on the bench
03:53 Abdullah Shafiq
03:54 You go for Haris
03:56 First of all, he hasn't played one day
03:58 On top of that, he doesn't open
04:01 Where he plays, on the 5th or 6th number
04:03 If he had got a chance on that number, he would have understood
04:06 Secondly, this is Colombo
04:09 Conditions are not supporting the slogger
04:12 What do you think about this decision?
04:14 Maybe it will be beneficiary
04:17 The reason is, when you make a plan
04:19 Which I think
04:21 When you have Fakhar
04:23 First of all, we have to go deep in this
04:25 Why Fakhar Zaman and then Imam-ul-Haq open
04:28 That is because they are complimenting each other
04:31 Fakhar will play fast
04:33 Will play his national game
04:34 And opposite to that, if we talk about Imam-ul-Haq
04:37 He will go, play steady
04:39 And will build his inning
04:41 I think this is the reason
04:43 Ideally, Abdullah Shafiq should play
04:46 Because we have to understand
04:48 We are learning
04:50 The benchmark is India
04:52 We are talking about this event
04:54 So you tell me, in any such match
04:56 When they batted
04:58 How much was their run in 10 overs?
05:00 If we see the average, it is 50-60
05:02 Then they go to the next gear
05:04 And target 30-30 in the next over
05:06 Even in the last match, this happened
05:08 If we see, they had 50 runs
05:10 Then they accelerated in 4-5 overs
05:13 And suddenly the average was 7-8
05:17 But after that, they got out
05:19 And then they came back
05:20 So we have to understand this
05:22 If we are talking about
05:24 Mohammed Haris is good, may God bless him
05:26 He is a very good player
05:28 May God bless him to perform
05:30 But this is not long-term planning
05:32 You have the World Cup coming up
05:34 I think this decision has to be revised
05:36 The reason is
05:38 If we think every day
05:40 And do this only
05:42 Then it will be very difficult in the future
05:44 And see, nothing is that bad yet
05:46 But after the World Cup
05:48 And God forbid
05:50 If I talk about other teams
05:52 We couldn't talk in detail
05:54 If we see in this transmission
05:56 They are coming very well set
05:58 And in every position
06:00 They have made 2-3 chargers
06:02 May God bless them
06:04 But the panic button is on
06:06 And I hope
06:08 Today it will be good for Pakistan
06:10 And the toss will be good
06:12 And the situation will be according to you
06:14 And it will be according to you
06:16 Kamran, it is being said again and again
06:18 That spinners will have an important role
06:20 It is being said today also
06:22 You have Osama Mir
06:24 Then why don't you try him
06:26 If you had put him in the match
06:28 Wouldn't it have been a good selection
06:30 We are saying this from the beginning
06:32 That there should be a specialist
06:34 I was not in favor of Haris
06:36 That you should have dropped Fakhar
06:38 He has played 20-25 runs
06:40 You should have given him more confidence
06:42 He is your match winner
06:44 He has to play 1-1 and his form should come back
06:46 If I was there, I would not have put him out of the match
06:48 But what happened is
06:50 They gave Haris the chance
06:52 I would like to see Haris
06:54 Open the opening
06:56 This would have been a batting order
06:58 Your combination would have been good
07:00 Rizwan, because he is opening
07:02 He has an idea
07:04 In this condition
07:06 He is not comfortable
07:08 Maybe he will play better
07:10 In the new ball
07:12 And
07:14 I think
07:16 Osama Mir
07:18 Definitely
07:20 If you
07:22 Don't want to play Fakhar
07:24 In this condition
07:26 You are playing Nawaz
07:28 Your batting lineup is this
07:30 You should have put a specialist
07:32 You should have gone for bowling
07:34 You know how well India has moved
07:36 They have played Akshay Patel
07:38 So it can be seen from here
07:40 They have worked hard
07:42 They have an idea
07:44 The captain and the coach
07:46 The pressure is coming
07:48 They make a team
07:50 But if they wanted to change
07:52 I think Abdullah
07:54 Was a better choice
07:56 And they should have taken him
07:58 But let's see the result
