00:00Welcome to Sportsroom, I am your host Najeeb Ulhasnain and finally we have a good news from Paris.
00:20Arshad Nadeem has moved ahead to win a medal. He has qualified for the final of Javelin Throw.
00:26The coach of Arshad Nadeem is with us now. Let's talk to him.
00:31Hello Arshad, thank you for taking the time.
00:33Hello.
00:35Congratulations to you. We have heard good news from Paris Olympics. What would you like to say?
00:43Congratulations to all of you. Congratulations to the entire Pakistani nation.
00:48Arshad Nadeem has qualified for the final.
00:53Let's all hope that he will win the gold medal in the final.
00:59Inshallah, Inshallah. 86.59 meters.
01:04He has qualified for the final for the first time.
01:09How are you feeling? I feel that the best player doesn't show his moves.
01:15He has more strength in his shoulders and he will throw a bigger throw in the final.
01:21Yes, Inshallah. I hope he will throw a 95 meter throw in the final.
01:26If he gets close to the medal, it is for sure.
01:29How happy are you? Tell us a little about this journey.
01:33What was your role in making Arshad Nadeem reach this far?
01:37Tell us about Arshad's hard work.
01:40I made Arshad compete in 2011 in Miyachanu.
01:46I was a member of the Punjab Athletic Federation.
01:49I made him compete in school.
01:52Arshad was only 14 years old at that time.
01:55He made gold in short board and javelin.
02:00I saw his long arms and legs.
02:04I felt that he can go to the Olympics if he is taken good care of.
02:13I tried for this and his father came to me.
02:18He said that he is your son and you have to take care of him.
02:24I took care of him and trained him.
02:32There was no ground in Miyachanu.
02:35But we trained him and sent him to Lahore, Multan, Rawalpindi, Islamabad.
02:50He was so brave.
02:53He prayed for 5 times.
02:56Allah sent him here because of his courage.
03:01Rashid, you have done a great job.
03:05I would like to know about you and your family.
03:09Pakistan is a country where you can do anything in sports.
03:15You have a good body and soul.
03:17You take it to cricket.
03:19How did you think that you will succeed in this sport?
03:25I was an athlete in 1974-1975.
03:29I was the best athlete in my college for 2 years.
03:34I was interested in this sport.
03:37I used to help athletes.
03:41Boys and girls used to train a lot in my academy.
03:46When I saw Rashid, I promoted him.
03:52100 years ago, in India, there used to be an Indopark.
03:58Kings used to promote their wrestlers.
04:08When they didn't have financial problems, they used to show their work.
04:15If we promote our athletes in Pakistan, it will be great.
04:23This is the sad part.
04:25In our country, people focus on raw talent and hard work.
04:29We don't have a proper sports policy to support our athletes.
04:36Tell me about the Birmingham throw.
04:40It was a great throw.
04:42Everyone remembers it.
04:44We need a medal.
04:46Everyone remembers that performance.
04:48A week ago, I told Birmingham that Rashid will score a goal.
04:58Rashid scored a goal.
05:00It was a 90-plus throw.
05:03I pray to God that Rashid will score a 95-plus goal.
05:13Thank you very much.
05:15It is very important to have a team, a coach and a family behind an athlete like Rashid.
05:24His family is very happy.
05:26What are their expectations from Rashid?
05:32His family is with me.
05:37What are their expectations from Rashid?
05:42I am very thankful to God.
05:44My son is very hopeful.
05:48He will score a lot of goals.
05:51My son will score a lot of goals and win medals.
05:58I am very happy that Arshad Nadeem has made our family proud.
06:02We are very proud of him.
06:04I am very happy that Arshad Nadeem has scored a goal.
06:10I am very happy that Arshad Nadeem has scored a goal.
06:12Pakistan Zindabad!
06:14Arshad Nadeem Zindabad!
06:16It is our fault too.
06:20Only when the Olympics are around, we remember such athletes.
06:25The rest of the time, we focus on other sports, especially cricket.
06:30Arshad Nadeem can do this.
06:32He has done this before.
06:34He has won medals for Pakistan.
06:37He has made Pakistan proud.
06:39God willing, Arshad Nadeem will succeed.
06:42The public has high expectations from Arshad Nadeem.
06:44Let's see what he has to say.
06:46He has done a great job.
06:49God willing, he will win a medal this time too.
06:53Arshad Nadeem is our last hope.
06:55God willing, he will make Pakistan proud.
06:57Arshad Nadeem is a ray of hope for us.
07:00The entire Pakistani community is on his side.
07:03Two years ago, he had a great record.
07:06I hope he will continue to play well and win medals for Pakistan.
07:11We have high expectations from Arshad Nadeem.
07:14God willing, he will win a gold medal for Pakistan.
07:17He is an old player.
07:18He has won medals for Pakistan before.
07:20God willing, he will win an Olympic medal.
07:22Wishing him very best for Thursday, where he will compete.
07:26His main rivals are Neeraj Chopra and Julian Weber.
07:30He is going to have a tough competition with them.
07:33Moving on, we will talk about the Paris Olympics.
07:35America and China are fighting for medals.
07:39Let's take a break.
07:40Don't go anywhere.
07:41We will be right back.
07:56Glad to have you back once again to Sports Room.
07:58Now, we will talk about cricket.
08:00To find new talent, the Pakistan Cricket Board has decided
08:03to inaugurate three new domestic tournaments.
08:07To talk about this, we have our sports correspondent, Shahid Hashmi.
08:10Mr. Shahid, greetings.
08:12Greetings.
08:13Mr. Shahid, there will be three new tournaments.
08:15Champions T20, Champions One Day Cup
08:18and Champions First Class Tournament.
08:21Do you think this will be beneficial?
08:25Or are these the same old things?
08:28No, it should be.
08:29Your domestic tournament performers
08:32of four days of cricket, One Day and T20
08:36will play their best lot in the Champions Tournament.
08:39It's good to talk about it on paper.
08:43But it's the duty of the PCB to implement it properly.
08:47Waqar Yunus, Nadeem Khan and Junaid Zia are here.
08:51They should implement it properly.
08:54The results will come.
08:55The best line that the PCB has spoken to domestic cricket
08:59so far is that
09:01domestic cricket and international cricket
09:04want to reduce the gap.
09:07The total number of matches is 131.
09:10You have already said that this season will be very busy.
09:14International cricket will also be played in between.
09:16How will the workload management
09:19and the fact that your main players take your domestic cricket seriously
09:23become practical?
09:25We will have to see.
09:27The international commitment is very good.
09:30Two test matches in Bangladesh and England
09:33and then Pakistan has to tour Zimbabwe and South Africa.
09:36There is a Champions Trophy.
09:38There are a lot of tournaments.
09:40There is also an international commitment.
09:42A lot of leagues will be played in between.
09:44Players are allowed to play two leagues as per the central contract.
09:48All these things will have to be managed.
09:51Waqar Yunus has come to the staff.
09:54He is a big cricketer.
09:55He has been given the position of administration for the first time.
09:58All these responsibilities have to be managed.
10:01The biggest thing is to manage them properly.
10:04In this press conference,
10:06clearly, Mohsin Naqvi said that
10:09if it is about domestic cricket,
10:11then obviously no one could say anything else.
10:13My question is that all these things are in their place.
10:15But what happened to the surgery?
10:17There is no update on that.
10:19There was news in the middle that
10:21there was a dispute against two or three players.
10:24Exactly, there will be a committee.
10:26They have made a separate press release.
10:29It's okay if they didn't do the surgery.
10:33Address it properly.
10:35Call the players.
10:36We haven't heard from Babar Azam and Gary Kirsten
10:39what happened to Pakistan in the E20 World Cup.
10:42They should have said something
10:44so that the whole nation would know
10:46why Pakistan lost two matches.
10:48Babar Azam should have said something.
10:52I don't understand.
10:53After such a big disaster,
10:55there is so much silence.
10:57How is this acceptable?
10:59I don't understand.
11:01They said that there will be a surgery
11:03and they will alter it.
11:05They will call each player.
11:07Apparently, nothing happened.
11:09The main thing was that
11:10Gary Kirsten should have said something.
11:12Exactly.
11:13He could have released his podcast.
11:16Babar Azam was there.
11:17He could have said something.
11:18Babar Azam should have said something.
11:20They have talked about grouping.
11:21They have talked about disciplinary breaches
11:23in the team's performance.
11:26The whole world is saying that
11:27you are going down in the rankings.
11:29You should have said something.
11:31Thank you very much, Shahid.
11:33He was updating us about the domestic tournaments.
11:36Obviously, everyone is wondering
11:38if the surgery was just to say that
11:43or if something will happen.
11:45Right now, we can see that
11:46nothing will happen.
11:47Moving on,
11:48you should know that
11:49PCB's Bangladesh Cricket Board
11:51is planning to send Pakistan soon.
11:53According to sources,
11:54a test team has been sent to Pakistan
11:56for training.
11:58ECB has not yet responded to PCB.
12:01Remember that due to the political situation,
12:05their players are not able to practice.
12:07Shahzad Malik is with us to update on this.
12:10Yes, Shahzad.
12:12Yes, Najeeb.

12:14has to play a series in Pakistan.
12:17Due to the political situation in Bangladesh,

12:25for the past two days.
12:27After this, the Pakistan Cricket Board
12:29has proposed to send the Bangladesh Cricket Team
12:32to Pakistan soon.
12:34The source says that
12:35this proposal has been made
12:37for the Pakistan training of the test team.
12:40The ECB has not yet responded to the ECB's proposal.
12:45The Bangladesh Cricket Team

13:04and was updating us on this story.
13:06That's all for now.
