00:00So, now you are watching the historical world of cricket, where the new ICC T20 World Cup has come to an end.
00:07India is the winner, the team that won the first match, and today they have won their last match, their final as well.
00:13Kamran Akhmed, will you agree with Basit Bhai?
00:16I mean, you are standing 24x24 and after that, you had to play very badly.
00:22You had to make some exceptional mistakes, only then you would have lost.
00:25Otherwise, there was no reason to lose in South Africa.
00:28Otherwise, you would have lost.
00:29Yes, you would have lost, but congratulations to India for their comeback.
00:33And Harthik Pandya has shown that he is the number one all-rounder in the world.
00:37He didn't get much time in batting, but in bowling, I think he made a comeback.
00:44After that, Bumrah made an impact.
00:46Amazing!
00:47Amazing!
00:48This match shouldn't have gone like this.
00:49He should have finished 9-10 balls earlier.
00:52But Miller took such a long time.
00:54He took it till the end, till the deep.
00:56His job was to create momentum and carry it on.
00:59He lost and went till the last over.
01:02Amazing!
01:03Even in the last over, when the whole disaster happened,
01:08even after that, when you needed 6-16,
01:11and the unbelievable catch that you have caught at that time,
01:14unbelievable catch,
01:15if that catch hadn't been there,
01:17and if you had played 10 runs on 5 balls,
01:19then you could have come back to South Africa.
01:21Yes, you could have, but T20 is a free cricket.
01:24One wicket changed Klasen's entire match.
01:27One catch took Surya Kumar Yadav's beautiful relay catch,
01:32went back and came back.
01:34He didn't let his feet hit the ground.
01:36And the best fielding side and best captain of this tournament was India.
01:40We can say that the team that deserved to win the trophy,
01:44was won by the Indian team.
01:45Throughout, their performance was good.
01:47Before the match, you could have said that India deserved it.
01:50That's right.
01:51But after Klasen played against India,
01:53I think South Africa should have won.
01:56100%.
01:57Even they won't believe this match.
02:00And the catch that Shahid Bhai spoke about...
02:02Amazing!
02:03A catch by Atsar Patel and a catch by Sky.
02:06They said that they are going up.
02:10Mr. Najeet, in such a pressure situation,
02:12you are standing at the corner of the boundary line,
02:14it's the last over, you need 6-16,
02:16and you know that if this goes, then it's 5-10.
02:19When did they catch the ball?
02:21When did they catch the ball again and again?
02:23And finally, they hold the ball.
02:25That's the thing.
02:26Controlling the nerves,
02:27which we call a big match,
02:28is the most important thing.
02:29And the way Klasen was hitting,
02:31and the amazing innings that he played,
02:34after that, he just controlled his nerves,
02:36waiting for one chance.
02:38And he got the chance,
02:39after Klasen got out,
02:41and he grabbed it beautifully.
02:43But in this event,
02:44the two teams that came close,
02:46to defeat India,
02:48they wrapped the gift themselves.
02:50One was Pakistan and the other was South Africa.
02:52This game was out of their hands.
02:54Despite that, India won.
02:58So, I say,
02:59this is the amazing thing about South Africa,
03:01that at this point,
03:02when they needed 24 on 24,
03:04how can you lose after that?
03:06After that, Mr. Basit,
03:08was the strategy wrong?
03:09Or in hindsight, we can say that
03:11when you need 24 on 24,
03:13after that, when the match was in your hands,
03:14you run a ball,
03:15you don't play unnecessary shots,
03:16you don't take risks.
03:17Mr. Basit,
03:18being out,
03:19when a batsman is out,
03:21like Klasen was out,
03:22that impacts the T20.
03:24Right.
03:25But with that, Miller was there.
03:26Right.
03:27And a player of this type,
03:28who can easily win a match,
03:30I have seen him,
03:32playing 20-20.
03:33No doubt,
03:34the catch that he did,
03:35we won't say that it was a bad fiddling,
03:37or a bad shot.
03:38When they needed 16 runs,
03:40this was the shot.
03:41This is what they should have done.
03:42But, I think,
03:44at one point, I felt,
03:46they understood the body language of India.
03:48This is out.
03:49Where Bhoomra made an over,
03:51Yes.
03:52From there,
03:53he created a buzz in the Indian team.
03:55I think, he gave one or two runs.
03:57And took a wicket.
03:58And good captaincy,
03:59that the captain made Bhoomra over.
04:02In today's match,
04:03I liked Markram's captaincy.
04:04Okay.
04:05Because,
04:06the new ball that he made,
04:07from Maharaj,
04:08Yes.
04:09Even though,
04:10there were two fours on two balls.
04:11He made India back foot
04:13in the 6th over.
04:15Yes.
04:16If there were not three outs,
04:17then,
04:18I am saying that,
04:19people will feel bad.
04:20What is that?
04:21You don't see Virat's 76 runs.
04:2475 runs.
04:25Brilliant captaincy by Rohit.
04:26Okay.
04:27Because, you keep thinking
04:28about the 18th over.
04:29What will you do in the next two?
04:31Should I get the 19th over from Bhoomra,
04:32or the 18th?
04:33Yes.
04:34He got the 18th over
04:35from his two best bowlers.
04:36And got the 19th over.
04:37Two runs in the 18th.
04:38Four runs in the 19th.
04:39Again, he showed his bravery.
04:40Excellent captaincy.
04:41And the moment he brought Pandya,
04:44he told Pandya
04:45to bowl off-side or off-stump.
04:47It was a good wide.
04:48Even if he had left it,
04:49it would have been a wide.
04:50Kamran bhai,
04:51whose captaincy was better?
04:52This is smart captaincy.
04:54If there are 20 in two overs,
04:55then,
04:56you get the 19th over
04:57from your best bowler.
04:58Yes.
04:59To give as few runs as possible.
05:00If there are more in the last over,
05:01you get a chance in that.
05:02So, very smart captaincy.
05:04After that,
05:05it was a big match.
05:06He was a big player.
05:07And Virat Kohli played big innings.
05:09Yes.
05:10Like there were three outs.
05:11He showed his class.
05:12His class is permanent.
05:13I think,
05:14that was a time
05:17when there was another partnership break.
05:20Like Akshay Patel
05:22and Virat Kohli.
05:23So, maybe,
05:24in 150-160,
05:25the team would have been out.
05:26Okay.
05:27Virat Kohli was saved from trolling.
05:29If Bindiya had lost,
05:30he would have been a serious trolling.
05:32This is my next question.
05:33This is a very strange thing.
05:35In the same way,
05:36if they play Rizwan,
05:37who is 50 in 48,
05:38and if they get a chance later,
05:39to make 20-25 runs,
05:40then we say,
05:41what have they done?
05:42Yes.
05:43And here,
05:44Virat Kohli has played.
05:45So, we are praising him.
05:46I understand,
05:47the wicket was falling from the other side.
05:48But,
05:49they slowed down a lot.
05:50And,
05:51it is visible.
05:52Because,
05:53when the tommy fell,
05:54then the speculation started
05:55that it was Kohli's fault
05:56that India was losing.
05:57Because,
05:58looking at the score on this pitch,
05:59the mistake that South Africa made,
06:00the score was not enough.
06:01So,
06:02that is why,
06:03it slowed down a bit in the middle.
06:04Najeeb,
06:05his own opinion.
06:06Yes.
06:07I believe,
06:08the three outs,
06:09they were not on a good ball.
06:11They were out by mistake.
06:12Like,
06:13if you give a punt,
06:14the other ball is playing.
06:15It is out on a full toss.
06:16Rohit Sharma,
06:17hits the same ball,
06:18inside out.
06:19Or,
06:20it was a six on the mid-off.
06:21After that,
06:22Surya Kumari comes.
06:23There is a bit of pressure.
06:24At that time,
06:25as a batsman,
06:26you take time.
06:27What we mean is,
06:28whether it is Rizwan or anyone else,
06:29here,
06:30he was handling one end.
06:31Then,
06:32Akshay Patel,
06:33then Dubey,
06:34came and took it out.
06:35After 50,
06:36he also changed his gear.
06:37But,
06:38yesterday,
06:39we were saying,
06:40170.
06:41He did 177.
06:42So,
06:43there was a chance
06:44to fight.
06:45To take South Africa
06:46to the back foot.
06:47Now,
06:48it is obvious,
06:49that you won.
06:50And,
06:51in that victory,
06:52Kohli contributed.
06:53Yes,
06:54it is obvious.
06:55Credit.
06:56Yes,
06:57yes,
06:58please.
06:59Along with that,
07:00Amrahat Manas,
07:01show the score card.
07:02He is right.
07:03He did 50 on 47-48 balls.
07:04But,
07:05at that time,
07:06the team was needed.
07:07And,
07:08in South Africa,
07:09if anyone would have played
07:10such innings,
07:11we would have appreciated
07:12that he made a decent total.
07:13And,
07:14look at the bowling figures.
07:15Bumrah,
07:164 overs.
07:1714 tot balls.
07:18Bumrah.
07:19Yes.
07:20In India's
07:21World Cups,
07:22it was the second slowest 50.
07:23In T20 World Cups.
07:24And,
07:25you know,
07:26the slowest 50,
07:27was made in New York.
07:28So,
07:29see,
07:30the condition there
07:31was tough.
07:32It is understandable.
07:33According to here,
07:34it was very slow.
07:35Even,
07:36the player,
07:37he is a big player.
07:38He should have played
07:39a little faster.
07:40But,
07:41I think,
07:42the condition was
07:43demanding.
07:44I think,
07:45the only difference
07:46between Babar and Kohli
07:47is that,
07:48Babar does not have
07:49the liberty
07:50to have such players
07:51around him.
07:52Yes.
07:53If he comes,
07:54he starts playing fast.
07:55He is playing slow from the front.
07:56We have this.
07:57Can we have
07:58such an opportunity,
07:59Kamran?
08:00No.
08:01You tell me one thing.
08:02You said,
08:03there are no such players
08:04around Babar.
08:05No.
08:06No.
08:07No.
08:08No.
08:09No.
08:10No.
08:11No.
08:12No.
08:13No.
08:14No.
08:15No.
08:16No.
08:17No.
08:18No.
08:19No.
08:20No.
08:21No.
08:22No.
08:23No.
08:24No.
08:25No.
08:26No.
08:27No.
08:28No.
08:29No.
08:30No.
08:31No.
08:32No.
08:33No.
