00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:03 Hello.
00:06 Assalamu alaikum.
00:07 Good afternoon, and welcome to the Pavilion.
00:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:10 --Sports and Sports and the ARY Zap app.
00:13 Our continued coverage of the ICC Men's World Cup 2023
00:16 from India.
00:17 And well, here's another big day, another big game.
00:20 Actually, a very special game.
00:21 Two semifinalists are going to be going
00:24 at each other this afternoon.
00:25 And we're going to be discussing about that.
00:27 But before that, let me bring in my esteemed panelists
00:29 into the discussion.
00:30 I've got four former captains, four outstanding gentlemen.
00:32 They analyze the game of cricket with us here in the Pavilion.
00:35 All four have represented Pakistan really well
00:37 and served the game of cricket really well.
00:39 I've got first up the young dynamic, Shoaib Malik.
00:42 Good afternoon.
00:43 Assalamu alaikum, Shoaib.
00:43 Good afternoon.
00:44 Walaikum salam.
00:45 Assalamu alaikum, everyone.
00:47 Mr. Dependable, one of the most successful test
00:49 captain in Pakistan's test cricket history,
00:50 Misbahul Haq.
00:51 Good afternoon.
00:52 Assalamu alaikum, Misbah.
00:53 Waalaikum salam.
00:54 Assalamu alaikum.
00:56 Known as the Man of Crisis, and we
00:57 call him the Silver Fox of the Pavilion,
00:59 I've got Moin Khan.
01:01 Assalamu alaikum and good afternoon.
01:03 Waalaikum salam.
01:03 Good afternoon.
01:04 Assalamu alaikum, everyone.
01:06 Chichko Chichkinderia, Doterian Domeria.
01:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:12 The cricket royalty himself, ladies and gentlemen,
01:14 the Sultan of Swing, the king of all all-rounders,
01:17 Wasim Akram.
01:17 Wasim, Assalamu alaikum and good afternoon.
01:19 Good afternoon.
01:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:23 I hope everybody's well and having a great Sunday.
01:25 Doterian Domeria.
01:27 Bingo.
01:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:29 All right, let's get going.
01:31 This is what we have in store for you.
01:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:34 Two semifinals.
01:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:39 It's India versus South Africa.
01:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:45 And this is going to be a really exciting game of cricket,
01:47 because there are two teams that are looking the best in this
01:50 World Cup so far, India versus South Africa.
01:52 It's going to be great fun.
01:54 And we're going to talk about this game momentarily.
01:56 It's a special day in India as well.
01:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:01 So very, very happy birthday to Virat Kohli.
02:03 Oh, look at that.
02:04 Wasim enjoying-- I like that, yes.
02:06 I want to congratulate Virat Kohli.
02:08 Happy 35th birthday, buddy.
02:10 You're doing great.
02:10 Keep up the good work.
02:12 And you are the best batter in the world.
02:14 Yep, there you have it.
02:15 Happy birthday, Virat Kohli.
02:17 And with that, let's get cracking on what happened last night.
02:21 Yesterday, we had two games.
02:22 It was a double header.
02:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:25 Now, Wasim Jr., they're looking really good with 3 for 16,
02:44 his 10 overs.
02:45 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:47 But look at that.
02:50 That innings by Ravindra, just fantastic.
02:53 This young man is making his mark in this World Cup.
02:55 And he's going to go a long way for Pakistan.
02:57 But in reply, it was the Fakhar Zaman show.
03:00 He was just unstoppable.
03:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:05 And the New Zealand bowlers had no answer for Fakhar Zaman.
03:08 And then the captain, Babar Azam,
03:09 they're coming in, complimenting Fakhar Zaman, playing a very,
03:12 very intentful innings there yesterday,
03:14 rotating the strike and also hitting boundaries
03:17 and look like a totally different Babar Azam.
03:19 A lot of determination and grit there by the team Pakistan.
03:21 Pakistan winning this one by 21 runs,
03:24 Duckwood and Lewis method [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:26 Let's not take away anything from that innings of Fakhar Zaman
03:29 because that set the tone and made sure that we were ahead
03:31 in DLS.
03:32 So that's how it went down yesterday.
03:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:36 And of course, the defending champions, England,
03:41 they are nowhere in this World Cup.
03:44 286, Australia [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:50 But look at that, Wokes 4 for 54,
03:52 Rashid picking up those two wickets,
03:54 Wood picking up those two wickets.
03:56 However, the English batting was in tatters.
03:59 Once again, they just couldn't deliver the goods.
04:01 And Zampa walking away with 3 for 21.
04:03 Now remember that Zampa made a very good innings of 29 runs
04:07 yesterday as well.
04:08 Probably what set up the difference between the Australia
04:10 England victory.
04:12 Congratulations to Australia.
04:13 They cruised ahead.
04:14 And for England, I think it's an end of an era.
04:17 They'll have to go back to England
04:18 and go back to the drawing board and restart and restructure.
04:21 They've done that before as well in 2015
04:23 when they set up for the 2019 World Cup.
04:25 And I'm sure they're going to come back much, much more
04:27 stronger.
04:28 So that's how it went down.
04:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:30 Since we are now at the business end of the tournament,
04:35 this is how it's looking.
04:36 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup India 2023.
04:37 This is the [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] right now.
04:39 India and South Africa have both qualified.
04:42 Now look at India.
04:42 India has played seven games in this World Cup.
04:44 And they go undefeated.
04:46 Just amazing how they've been playing some fantastic cricket,
04:50 14 points up top.
04:51 But South Africa, right behind them,
04:52 they've only lost one game.
04:54 They had a close game with Pakistan.
04:55 But this is how South Africa has been going.
04:57 They're up there with the 12 points.
04:58 Australia also there with 10 points now.
05:01 They've got two games left.
05:03 And New Zealand sitting on the fourth place.
05:05 Pakistan in the hunt, in the hunt.
05:07 Now this is still wide open for Pakistan.
05:10 It is still open for Pakistan.
05:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:13 We're going to talk about that momentarily.
05:16 But this is how it's looking like there.
05:17 But for England, a very, very disappointing World Cup.
05:20 They sit at the bottom.
05:21 Will they qualify for the ICC Champions Trophy?
05:23 We will find out at the end of this tournament.
05:25 But that's how the points table is looking like right now.
05:27 And let me just start off, firstly,
05:30 with that game of that [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] yesterday.
05:34 Just outstanding, Wasim.
05:36 Outstanding probably is not the right word.
05:38 It's got to be better than outstanding.
05:40 We have to come up with some new words.
05:41 The way he played 11 sixes and getting 100 plus in just 25
05:46 overs, that talks about sheer volume of his talent,
05:50 consistency.
05:51 And he took the game away.
05:52 It was, like I said last night, it
05:54 was Fakhar versus New Zealand when he came out to bat.
05:58 I mean, Babar was just there as a--
06:01 give him the strike.
06:01 And that was very sensible move by our captain
06:04 to give the guy a strike.
06:05 And he was-- every time he hit the ball,
06:07 like Misbah said last night, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:12 Yeah.
06:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:14 Nice one.
06:20 I wish we could get the numbers scores like that as well.
06:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:23 But explain to us, what was the difference between the lengths
06:31 and the line that Shaheen, that Rauf, and Hasan Ali
06:35 were bowling?
06:35 And what was different that Wasim Jr. was doing?
06:38 Because he got 3 for 60 in the same place, same--
06:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:43 --opposition.
06:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:45 Was it technically different to Tino Bowler's
06:48 or Wasim Jr.?
06:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:54, fuller length.
06:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:59 Right.
07:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:18 Right.
08:43 So let me ask you this.
08:44 Can other bowlers not copy the template of one
08:46 successful bowler on the other end?
08:48 I mean, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:49 Maybe I should just copy this template.
08:55 Maybe I should follow what he's doing right now.
08:57 Can that not happen in the game?
08:59 It is, but different skill [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:01 Generally, he generates a lot of pace.
09:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:12 But better, they're just using your pace.
09:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:16 I think for starters, it's impossible to [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:31 He's running in that action.
09:36 He's got this follow through.
09:38 Pace is there.
09:39 The problem, as I explained while we were showing
09:41 his clips, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:43 You see, I've been telling this again and again,
10:01 saying this again and again, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:04 It's kind of easy for bowler, because [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:07 Especially when the partnership is going,
10:15 especially after the 10th over till the 39th, 40th over.
10:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:19 Hence, you get hammered more.
10:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:31 Yeah, you can improve the line in it.
10:35 About the New Zealand side, now, New Zealand side,
10:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:39 How does batsman, any batsman, achieve that?
10:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:53 How does he achieve that?
10:55 How does he stay in form?
10:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:58 He's a player.
10:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:00 Being a captain for so long of New Zealand,
11:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:36 Being a captain, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:50 You know, his thumb was in a cast.
12:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:03 So do you think you would be able to practice with that?
12:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:10 You'd ask that question to Shoaib,
12:14 before just changing the subject about Haris Rauf or other bowlers.
12:18 Can't they bowl the length?
12:20 Wasim was bowling it.
12:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:35 Talk about-- talk about--
12:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:57 Look at this catch.
13:06 Look at this.
13:07 Look at that.
13:08 Look at him running backwards.
13:11 Wow.
13:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:27 Let's see-- let's see that.
13:33 Let's see.
13:34 Let's see that.
13:35 Let's see if that's his left hand.
13:36 Right hand is the fractured one.
13:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:39 And it was protected with a lot of protection.
13:45 All right.
13:46 And with that, we're going to take a break right here
13:47 in the pavilion.
13:48 When we come back, we're closing the action.
13:49 It's the two semifinalists colliding with each other.
13:51 See you on the other side.
13:53 Welcome back to the pavilion.
13:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:55 And today, we have the two semifinalists
14:01 face to face with each other.
14:02 It is South Africa versus India.
14:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:05 And with me in the pavilion, I've got four fantastic gentlemen.
14:09 I've got Shoaib Malik, Miz Fawal Haque, Moeem Khan,
14:11 and the great Wasim Akram.
14:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:15 Between India and South Africa in the World Cups.
14:17 This is how it's gone down.
14:18 They played five matches against each other in the World Cups.
14:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:22 But remember, this is a very different-- sorry.
14:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:27 And this is a very different India team
14:29 now that we're talking about.
14:31 India versus South Africa.
14:32 Five games.
14:33 Three won by South Africa, two by India.
14:35 Wasim, South Africans, they like to set up a target.
14:40 India likes to chase.
14:41 This is going to be an interesting battle.
14:43 Very interesting.
14:44 Two table toppers.
14:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:48 Table toppers.
14:51 Yeah.
14:52 I love it.
14:53 The best fast bowling teams in this World Cup.
14:55 The best batting team in this World Cup.
14:57 Two best teams.
14:58 And this is called a clash of the top guns.
15:01 I mean, incredible.
15:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:15 But psychologically, this game is very important for either side.
15:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:20 And India, I mean, so far, is looking kind of unbeatable, man.
15:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:28 Yeah.
15:32 Both, like I said--
15:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:34 Yeah.
15:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:42 So it does help fast bowlers more than the spinners so far,
15:51 which we haven't seen in this World Cup.
15:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:38 [LAUGHTER]
16:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:51 It'll be easier team, I suppose, Moeen defense.
16:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:55 Here's a question.
17:06 Same batters, same pitch, same ground, same opposition
17:09 that they're playing against.
17:10 How is it that when they're batting first,
17:12 it's a different beast altogether?
17:14 And when they're chasing, they become a totally different beast?
17:17 How does that work?
17:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:20 How does it change?
17:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:25 OK.
17:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:25 All right, with that, we're going
18:26 to take a break here at the Pavilion.
18:27 But when we come back, we'll close the action.
18:29 Stay with us.
18:31 Welcome back to the Pavilion.
18:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:33 And we're getting closer to the action.
18:36 Two semifinals.
18:37 What a clash.
18:38 It's going to be India versus South Africa.
18:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:41 The conversation was chasing or setting up a target.
18:45 Both teams have their own choices.
18:47 But now let's talk about some of the batting
18:49 geniuses on both sides of this.
18:51 Let's start with South Africa, Quinton de Kock.
18:53 How special is he?
18:54 And what makes me sad is that he says
18:56 that he's going to retire from ODI cricket
18:59 after looking at what he's been able to do.
19:02 Yeah, he announced it just before the World Cup, I think.
19:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:06 There'll be a sad day for cricket.
19:08 I mean, what a form he's in.
19:09 What a player he's in.
19:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:11 And he's a brilliant keeper.
19:15 He's got 400s in this World Cup already.
19:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:21 I mean, 400s already in this World Cup.
19:29 And the way he plays, he takes the game away
19:31 from the opposition.
19:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:33 545 runs already.
19:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:48 I'm cool.
19:49 I'm cool.
19:50 I mean, I got back from the World Cup
19:51 when the batsman at the other end told me, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:54 I go, hang on a minute.
19:55 What does that mean?
19:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:57 Stay calm.
20:02 The stream is there.
20:03 With that, we've got a little feature on Quinton DeKoch.
20:05 Let's take a look.
20:06 Misma, what does it take for a batsman who gets his start
20:09 and then doesn't stop at a 50 but goes all the way,
20:11 wants to go for big innings?
20:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:14 What mentally do you calculate in your head?
20:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:17 How does that work?
20:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:00 Whenever he gets set, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:04 Well, it's all about habits.
21:13 And talking about habits, we have another habit
21:15 over here in the pavilion, and that's to take a break.
21:17 So we're going to take a break.
21:18 See you on the other side.
21:19 Welcome back to the pavilion.
21:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:24 And we are getting closer to the action.
21:27 It is India versus South Africa today.
21:29 It's going to be a great game of cricket.
21:31 But before that, let's take a look at the pitch.
21:34 Right, Wasim, what did you make of that pitch?
21:37 He said it's a pitch where you should
21:39 back pass if you win the toss.
21:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:42 And he also said, OK, India don't mind chasing,
21:55 but [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:58 They'll be in big trouble because slowness in the pitch.
22:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:03 Even first game, Bangladesh or Netherlands,
22:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:23 World Cup record set here, South Africa,
22:26 82 sixes previously held by England,
22:28 79 sixes in the previous World Cup.
22:30 They've hit so far 82 sixes.
22:32 It's still not over yet, right?
22:34 How much would this pitch affect that kind of batting?
22:37 Because we know that Clarson, Miller, Hanson,
22:40 they all like to hit big.
22:41 And they like the ball to come onto their bat.
22:44 Of course, but [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:46 Early wickets [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:48 How to play so many overs.
22:53 Right.
22:54 Or with the same momentum.
22:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:56 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:00 So you back yourself as a batter to hit big shots.
23:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:15 Spinners lying in the middle overs.
23:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:18 South Africa is near this elusive record as well.
23:31 There are 194 sixes in a season, ODI calendar year.
23:35 Wow.
23:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:37 Wow.
23:43 They're only about 10 and about--
23:46 Yeah?
23:47 15 away.
23:48 15 away.
23:49 And they still have a lot of--
23:51 And it shows [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:58 So interestingly, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:07 Is this because of the IPL and because they want a lot of runs
24:18 to be scored, a lot of boundaries to be scored,
24:20 a lot of commercial aspect to the game,
24:22 that these outfields have been sent this way?
24:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:02 I might differ with you, but subcontinent [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:07 Right.
25:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:16 And same goes for India.
25:18 And I suppose if it's a rainy day, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:24 But generally, yes.
25:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:31 Yeah.
25:49 Having outfields so fast in different venues,
25:52 but even battle [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:56 Absolutely.
26:14 One more thing, Mishra.
26:15 The stadiums-- the stadiums look really good in India.
26:18 Every stadium has shown lights [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:23 I mean, and every stadium is unique.
26:25 It's a lot of investment in infrastructure there.
26:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:52 Normally, you are like that.
26:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:20 Across the pavilion.
27:24 Right.
27:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:33 As a commentator, as a viewer, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:48 Even the stands--
27:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:00 Even the stands--
28:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:16 But as a viewer, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:22 I know.
28:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:29 They're getting closer to the action.
28:33 You are literally sitting--
28:35 the player is standing just there, fielding in front of you.
28:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:44 Go nuts.
28:45 Time for a break.
28:46 We'll see you on the other side.
28:47 Welcome back to the pavilion.
28:51 We've been talking about South Africa.
28:53 Let's talk about the Indian batting lineup,
28:55 that formidable Indian batting lineup.
28:58 Waseem, who do you think in this batting lineup is somebody
29:02 you'd say, yeah, this is the weak link in this batting lineup?
29:05 Because Iyer, we thought was, but in the last game,
29:08 he scored some big runs as well.
29:09 It's just--
29:10 You thought I did.
29:11 Yeah, that's true, though.
29:12 That's what I thought.
29:13 He was the weak link.
29:14 These are a player apart from two seniors, the captain and one
29:17 of the greats of the game.
29:18 Captain [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:19 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:23 We've got a toss going on.
29:29 It's time to flip.
29:30 It's Samsung flip.
29:31 Well, Waseem, what you wanted is happening.
29:33 You wanted to see both of them do something unusual.
29:36 Out of their comfort zone.
29:37 Out of their comfort zone.
29:38 But it's going to be out of their comfort zone
29:40 for sure for South Africa.
29:41 For South Africa, yes.
29:42 But India, I think they look very confident.
29:44 And what I like about the skipper, what he said,
29:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:47 So pitch is just maybe overrated at times.
29:52 But exactly [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:53 Two proper spinners.
29:59 It's a good side, winning the toss.
30:01 And straight away after winning, I think India is favorites now.
30:04 Yeah, it is, definitely.
30:05 Hardik Pandya is out of the World Cup.
30:07 Moeen, how much does that kind of have
30:10 an impact on the Indian squad?
30:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:13 Although he's one of the very good all-rounder currently
30:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:24 Once he's not here, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:36 So we don't want to change any in this World Cup so far.
30:46 So I think [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:02 But then it actually did really expose.
31:12 In fact, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:13 So it seems like the Indian batting side
31:20 is completely covered in all directions, up and down the order.
31:23 I think if we look at the whole teams in the World Cup,
31:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:58 Misbah, take us through this.
32:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:01 And then the same bowling lineup, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:20 So it's a very good balanced team.
32:23 And the way everyone is performing,
32:25 I think they'll be confident.
32:26 It would be.
32:27 And the South Africa team, take us through this, please.
32:29 Yeah, no change in South African side.
32:31 No, there is one change, actually.
32:33 One change.
32:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:35 Good to see.
32:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:38 They put an extra mystery spinner in there,
32:42 opener, De Kock, the skipper.
32:44 De Kock is in good nick.
32:45 Skipper also played well in the last game, went and do some.
32:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:49 One of the best middle order batters in the world.
32:54 And Miller, the killer.
32:56 We've seen him bat.
32:57 And I think the most number--
32:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:00 And then, of course, two spinners,
33:09 Samshi and Maharaj, and then Rabada and Nagito.
33:11 So again, a very balanced side.
33:13 But toss have tilted a little bit towards India in my book.
33:16 All right.
33:17 So India looks favorite right now.
33:20 This toss, as Wasim says it.
33:21 And with that, we're going to take a break.
33:23 When we come back, we are closer to the action.
33:25 Stay with us.
33:26 [MUSIC PLAYING]
33:29 Welcome back to The Pavilion.
33:36 And you're watching Esports, Stance Sports in the air
33:38 by Zap Habit.
33:39 We're getting very close to the South Africa-India clash.
33:41 Now, the news is India have won the toss
33:43 and have elected to bat first.
33:45 So it's going to be fireworks from the Indian batting order.
33:48 With that, it's time for Express Powers expert predictions.

34:44 Fielder?
34:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:46 Rohit Sharma for me.
34:48 Rohit Sharma, the skipper.
34:50 Skip.
34:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

35:17 I'll have a chammy.
35:18 All right.
35:19 With that, those are your players to watch out for.
35:21 Our question is, since we have to go to the action,
35:25 I think they want us to go to the action.
35:27 So we'll have to say thank you, gentlemen.
35:29 Thank you, Shoaib.
35:30 Thank you, Mohin.
35:31 Thank you, Mizba.
35:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

35:38 Good luck to both the teams.
