00:00 Shakeel, what a talent and the way Saud performed in this season,
00:04 the way he's playing, he's playing really well.
00:06 And in the last season, he tweeted
00:08 about which he said, let's show you the aftermath.
00:12 I'm not in a good mental state, I tweeted something I shouldn't have.
00:17 And the past is in the past.
00:20 I worked for a year, but you can see that
00:23 when the management gave me a chance,
00:25 they gave me a chance at a number that
00:27 I think suits me. If I had played this again at 4 or 5,
00:31 I wouldn't have performed like this.
00:33 And then they gave me so much backing,
00:35 even though the matches I played weren't good,
00:38 but I didn't feel any pressure that I have to play all of it.
00:40 So, there are good times and bad times,
00:44 but you should control your mind in bad times,
00:48 which I didn't have.
00:50 Absolutely. Mr. Shahid, while talking,
00:52 you seem very mature and sensible, Saud Shakeel.
00:56 And what he said just now,
00:58 that you have a state of mind.
01:00 I tweeted about the phase I was going through.
01:02 If you ask someone about PSL 9's surprise package,
01:05 it's Saud Shakeel.
01:07 He didn't get a chance in the last editions,
01:09 he was frustrated too.
01:11 But he proved that if a player's technique is good,
01:15 if he is successful in Test cricket,
01:17 he can play in T20 cricket too.
01:19 And he is lucky that he got the upper number,
01:21 he got to open. He is absolutely right
01:23 that if he played at 4 or 5, he would have struggled.
01:25 But whenever he is getting a pace,
01:27 he is hitting on it,
01:29 he is hitting on the fours and sixes.
01:31 And yesterday's inning, he took it deep in the match.
01:33 He thought that if I don't stand,
01:35 then my team might not be able to chase.
01:37 Deep, he was on the crease till the last game
01:39 and he won the match.
01:41 Brilliant 88 on 65.
01:43 What would you say, Mr. Basit?
01:45 Play for the Karachi unions,
01:47 like Srafraz used to play.
01:49 This time the form is not good.
01:51 He told in his interview
01:53 that the number I got,
01:55 it is the requirement of that number.
01:57 Because it is a timer.
01:59 And for a timer,
02:01 it is better than five numbers
02:03 that it becomes a top order.
02:05 And he has given a performance in top order.
02:07 And the way he played yesterday,
02:09 although he hit two fours,
02:11 one on the switch hitting,
02:13 the one he hit in front,
02:15 he hit a six on the last ball of 19th over.
02:17 The same one, the one he hit the four,
02:19 he hit a six.
02:21 So he knew where the gaps were.
02:23 And he batted sensibly.
02:25 And he played very well.
02:27 He played a very good inning.
02:29 Along with that,
02:31 he obviously doesn't forget the press.
02:33 The question was asked to him
02:35 on the statement of Aqib Javed,
02:37 which he said,
02:39 how are the world's power hitters
02:41 and their arms are small.
02:43 He said something like this.
02:45 What answer was given to him,
02:47 everyone has their own point of view.
02:49 And it is possible that after seeing something,
02:51 they say, and maybe the numbers
02:53 I was playing in the World Cup,
02:55 that is their point of view.
02:57 So everyone can have their own point of view.
02:59 There is nothing wrong in that.
03:01 But I am happy that the opportunity
03:03 that was given to me here as an opener
03:05 and I am capitalizing on it,
03:07 and my team has qualified,
03:09 I have been a man of the match for two months,
03:11 so what can be more than that?
03:13 So we don't think like this.
03:15 The question was, who is playing at those numbers
03:17 and I am playing at that number.
03:19 What will you say?
03:21 It is exactly like that.
03:23 Aqib Javed, all his players who are tenured,
03:25 should not talk about height.
03:27 Great Sachin Tendulkar has given them a slap.
03:29 Forget that, whatever it is.
03:31 Saush Shaquil, I think,
03:33 is a very good player.
03:35 Like Shahid Bhai has said,
03:37 that a test match player can play
03:39 all types of cricket.
03:41 I think the example before this is of Hashim Amla.
03:43 He won his heart with test cricket
03:45 in white ball cricket.
03:47 Whether it is T20 or 1 day.
03:49 So this is the beauty of long cricket.
03:51 And he has said a very good thing
03:53 which you will obviously relate to a lot.
03:55 He has said that you should give respect
03:57 to your domestic cricket.
03:59 You play all types of cricket in this,
04:01 this makes you tough.
04:03 You are tired of saying this.
04:05 Absolutely, I still say that you have to play.
04:07 If you want to become a big player,
04:09 make a big name, make respect in the world,
04:11 then you have to play test cricket.
04:13 And I think,
04:15 the way he has batted,
04:17 the way he has found gaps,
04:19 he can play the same player
04:21 who has good technique,
04:23 who is mentally strong,
04:25 who knows where the gap is.
04:27 Like he hit a six to Jandad,
04:29 Shaheen hit a four in the last over
04:31 at the mid-off.
04:33 He is not an ordinary thing,
04:35 he shows talent.
04:37 He can hit a short tail.
04:39 He was able to play T20 cricket
04:41 and get a base in the open
04:43 and get a base in the open
04:45 but his franchise was cracked.
04:47 He made a very good decision.
04:49 And he was successful in that.
04:51 We were sitting together in the World Cup.
04:53 We said that the Patla pieces in India,
04:55 I was very sad that
04:57 the great Babur Azam
04:59 didn't make three centuries.
05:01 A week ago,
05:03 Babur said the same thing
05:05 that we said during the World Cup.
05:07 He also realised that.
05:09 And the thing is that
05:11 in the World Cup,
05:13 our batsmen's performance
05:15 was not like the others.
05:17 Is Virat Kohli a power hitter?
05:19 Is Babur Azam a power hitter?
05:21 Not at all.
05:23 It's a simple thing.
05:25 Sachand also came to T20 as an opener.
05:27 He was also a timer
05:29 when he came to T20.
05:31 He gave a performance there.
05:33 If Saud comes as an opener,
05:35 he will give a performance
05:37 that is 100% on 5th number.
05:39 There is no such player.
05:41 You give credit to Shane Watson
05:43 who realised that
05:45 he should bring him up.
05:47 The previous coaches didn't have brains.
05:49 That's why they didn't even feed him.
05:51 And this mistake was made by Lahore Club London.
05:53 Abdullah Shafiq is a good timer,
05:55 a good stroke player.
05:57 You dropped him by sending him down.
05:59 If he was also playing as an opener,
06:01 he would have made more runs.
06:03 Pakistan fans were asking in every match
06:05 why he was sent down.
06:07 Babur Azam is a world class player,
06:09 a timer, he will make runs whenever he plays.
06:11 He was put under so much pressure
06:13 by Pakistan Cricket Board
06:15 and by many media.
06:17 He was under so much pressure
06:19 that he was able to make runs.
06:21 Gautam Gabbir had said before the World Cup
06:23 that he will make a storm.
06:25 That's true.
06:27 He was under tremendous pressure.
06:29 Many people...
06:31 You know...
06:33 He was the chairman of Pakistan Cricket Board.
06:35 Viewers, today's match
06:37 is between Karachi and Peshawar.
06:39 Karachi is already out.
06:41 Peshawar has to keep their place
06:43 in the top two spots.
06:45 And everyone
06:47 in the top four teams...
