00:00Hello and welcome to SportsZoom. I am your host, Najeeb Alasnain.
00:17It's been a long time since we've seen Pakistan's cricket.
00:21It's a very timely performance.
00:24The Pakistan team has come into rhythm before the Champions Trophy.
00:28We wanted the Pakistan team to play well,
00:31against big teams, when they have full strength.
00:35All the main players are playing.
00:37When Pakistan plays against these teams, there is always a B or C team.
00:41It's not our fault.
00:42But a full strength team is not available.
00:44This time, what we have done in South Africa,
00:47South Africa has lost the Whitewash in their own country.
00:51And what a great performance.
00:53Saim Ayyub became the best player of the series.
00:57Mr. Shahid Hashmi is with us in the studio.
01:00Basit Ali will join us on the telephone line.
01:02First of all, Mr. Shahid, Assalam-o-Alaikum.
01:04Welcome to the show.
01:05And congratulations.
01:06Congratulations.
01:07I hope the Champions Trophy starts the day after tomorrow.
01:10The team is in great form.
01:12There will be a tri-series.
01:14New Zealand and South Africa will come again.
01:16That will start in the first week of February.
01:19Pakistan's preparations are excellent.
01:21Australia is in Australia.
01:24Defeating South Africa after 22 years and winning the Whitewash for the first time.
01:28The team is on a roll.
01:29Absolutely.
01:30Mr. Basit Ali has joined us.
01:32Assalam-o-Alaikum, Mr. Basit.
01:35Mr. Basit, can you hear me?
01:37Yes, I can hear you.
01:38Mr. Basit, we have won the Whitewash series.
01:42And our youngsters have performed.
01:45This is always a good sign.
01:46When your young players get a chance, they should avail it.
01:50What do you think?
01:53You are absolutely right, Mr. Nadeem.
01:56Assalam-o-Alaikum.
01:57Assalam-o-Alaikum.
01:58The game is about confidence.
02:01Almost 80% of the team was like this.
02:05And they were performing so well.
02:07Let's not forget one name here.
02:09His name is Atif Javed.
02:10Yes, absolutely.
02:11As soon as he joined the team, or when he wanted to be a selector, he did one thing.
02:17And he succeeded.
02:18The boys gained confidence from him.
02:22Because of this confidence, you can see that Saim Al-Yoob failed so many times in the last 20-30 matches.
02:29We were also saying that he has a lot of chances.
02:32But the selectors and coaches trusted him.
02:35The captain trusted him.
02:36The way he played in the test match.
02:38So, this is the thing.
02:39After gaining confidence, you can see that Babas played a role in the last two matches.
02:44It's too early to say that I remembered Javed.
02:48He played with him.
02:50First, he played with Saim in the second match.
02:53He played with Rizwan.
02:54And now he is playing with him.
02:55Our top four who are performing well, except Abdullah Chaudhary, who was out on zero in the third match.
03:01You see, Salman Ali Agha, Kamran Kulam, Niazi and Tayyab Khan.
03:06Their confidence level was so good.
03:08They were hitting sixes and sixes in front of us.
03:10So, this shows that you gained confidence in batting.
03:14Because of which we were losing.
03:16We were not getting a case.
03:18That has changed completely.
03:20And we pray to God that this confidence remains.
03:23So, God willing, you will reach the Champions Cup with ease.
03:29Absolutely.
03:30It seems so.
03:31Mr. Shahi, the thing is that Babas always plays well.
03:35It happens in the T20 format that he slows down or comes up.
03:39So, he can't enjoy the power play properly.
03:42But the problem here was not about playing.
03:45The problem was about their captaincy.
03:47The problem was that you were not allowing new talent to come in the regular interval.
03:52People also call it friendship.
03:54But you didn't give a chance to new talent.
03:56Then everyone used to say one sentence.
03:58What will a single barber do?
04:00Now, there are youngsters at the top and at the bottom.
04:02They are all contributing.
04:04So, when young boys get a chance at the right time, will they deliver?
04:08Absolutely.
04:09Rizwan gave a chance.
04:10The selection committee chose.
04:12Rizwan gave a chance.
04:13Aqib Javed has always liked and promoted youngsters.
04:17And in development, Aqib's work is not of anyone.
04:20In 2004, when Pakistan won the Junior World Cup, Aqib Javed was the coach.
04:24In 2009, he was a part of the coaching staff in the T20 World Cup.
04:28Now, he has got the coaching of the senior team.
04:30So, God willing, Pakistan will get more honor.
04:32Defend the Champions Trophy.
04:34And next year, Pakistan should do something better in the T20 World Cup.
04:39The T20 team has gone down.
04:40The ODI team has come up.
04:42We have become the No. 3 ranking team.
04:44So, youngsters get a chance.
04:45They get confidence.
04:46They get a chance with consistency.
04:48So, they run.
04:49As far as Babar is concerned, Babar did not learn in the captaincy.
04:53He kept evolving himself as a batsman.
04:55Now, he has learned this.
04:56He has seen that his T20 place is also in danger.
05:00I was out of my test team.
05:02Now, I have the ODI format left.
05:04In which I am the world number one.
05:06So, I have to play with the players.
05:08Like Basit said.
05:09In one match, he played with Rizwan for 115 runs.
05:13In the third match, he played with Saim for 114 runs.
05:16And in all three matches, Rizwan and Babar have provided the platform.
05:21From which the players have come down and hit.
05:23And the Pakistan team has played in two halves.
05:25In the last match, after 25 overs, the next 25 overs were great.
05:28In the first 25 overs of yesterday, 120 runs.
05:31In the next 22 overs, 188 runs.
05:33It's an amazing batting.
05:34It's an amazing batting.
05:35The way you are playing one day.
05:37If you hit sixes and fours.
05:39And keep your wickets in hand.
05:40If you charge the bat in the last 20-25 overs.
05:42Then your team will win.
05:43Basit bhai, what will you say about Saim?
05:45Because in the beginning, everyone was saying that he will get a no-look shot.
05:50But it's such a strong shot.
05:52It's a scoring shot for him.
05:53And he is hitting all around the park.
05:56And he is playing fearlessly.
05:59He didn't hit a no-look shot in these three matches.
06:02Look, Saim is a very good performer.
06:06You can see Saim's performance in Babar's batting as well.
06:11In Rizwan's batting as well.
06:12In Salman Ali Agha's batting as well.
06:14He is relaxing the rest of the team.
06:15He is giving a flying start.
06:18The power flicker start.
06:20We were lagging in that.
06:22Unfortunately.
06:23Fakhar Zaman, you know, is not in the team.
06:25He is giving confidence in his batting.
06:28Saim is in the batting.
06:29And they are cashing from the bottom.
06:31What I am saying is that they are cashing.
06:33You said a very good thing.
06:34Babar was trapped in the captainship.
06:37He was not able to decide whether to focus on his batting or his captainship.
06:42Now you see, the way Rizwan is fighting, he has united the teams.
06:46In these three matches or in the Zimbabwe team,
06:49you wouldn't have heard that Babar's group is different,
06:53Saim's group is different.
06:54That's right.
06:55Rizwan has united everyone.
06:57This is the sign of a good captain.
07:00And in the end, I will say only one sentence.
07:02The system of nature comes in front.
07:06Saim Ayub has shown a great performance in this series.
07:10235 runs overall in these three matches.
07:13When he got this honor,
07:15he said that he is very satisfied with his performance.
07:21But when the team wins, there is a lot of happiness.
07:23What did he have to say?
07:24Let's see.
07:26It's special because we won and credit to all the team.
07:29And this award is for all the team, not just for mine.
07:32Because they all chipped in.
07:34They all helped me to take this award.
07:36I try to not take much time to take experience and learn from every game.
07:41And seniors helped me a lot to learn from every match, from every mistake.
07:46Mr. Shahid, you see all the youngsters.
07:49Sufian Mukeem's last T20 game was not so good.
07:54He came here in the second over.
07:56He didn't do so well in the beginning.
07:58Then he recovered very well later.
08:00The one who took the wicket in the first over became the third Pakistani.
08:04One is Shahid Mahbub and who is the second?
08:06Inzamam Ul Haq.
08:08I don't remember this.
08:10But I remember that Inzamam outed Brian Lara.
08:13It was Brian Lara's first series.
08:15Inzamam outed Brian Lara.
08:17And as they say, slow left arm volley.
08:22He didn't come on the volley.
08:23It was Lara's and he was out.
08:24One quality of Saim is humility.
08:27May God keep both his feet on the ground and not fly in the sky.
08:30He has got so much success.
08:32He got a chance with consistency.
08:34He didn't even have a 50 in 21 T20 innings.
08:37He did 80 in Australia.
08:39In Adelaide, one day Pakistan chased him.
08:42He came here and made a century in Zimbabwe.
08:44He made two centuries here.
08:46He has made three centuries in nine matches.
08:48The way he is getting value,
08:51Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist,
08:53he is being praised all over the world.
08:55Pollock praised him so much that he has so much talent in 22 years.
08:59When everyone is praising him,
09:00the mind gets a little out.
09:02May God keep both his feet on the ground.
09:05He has humility.
09:06And he has made a product with consistency.
09:08He played at the age of 16.
09:10He played under-16.
09:11He played under-19.
09:12He played Pakistan Juniors and came in the senior team.
09:15He has got regular chances.
09:17He has come this far.
09:18May God keep him like this.
09:20He has humility.
09:21Basit bhai, tell us,
09:22he played very well.
09:23He also has a good form.
09:25Do you feel that if his form is bad,
09:27he will have a problem?
09:31He might have a problem in adjusting to the bounce.
09:36But the way he changed his technique,
09:39the initial movement,
09:41he used to move his back foot.
09:44In South Africa,
09:45the initial movement was of his front foot.
09:48This makes it very easy for you to cut and pull.
09:51It felt good to see.
09:52And in Asia,
09:53the problem that you are talking about,
09:57I don't think there is a problem in Asia.
09:59If the form is bad,
10:00there will be a problem.
10:01I think that in Champions Hockey,
10:04there will be only one voice.
10:06If you call Saim,
10:07the Pakistan team will be under pressure.
10:10Actually,
10:11a big player is only recognized when he is out of form.
10:14How he came out of form,
10:16that will make Saim Ayub a great player.
10:19But his quality is that
10:20he didn't play ODI cricket like T20 cricket.
10:23When he made the first century,
10:25Pakistan was chasing 240.
10:2750 was in his 73 balls.
10:29He got a beat,
10:30he got a catch,
10:31but he didn't save Afrat Afri.
10:33And even yesterday,
10:3450 was in his 54 balls.
10:36But he was standing calmly.
10:38He got a miss,
10:39he got a ball,
10:40he got a beat,
10:41he got an edge.
10:42But this is the quality
10:43that every format plays according to it.
10:45Let's take a break from here.
10:47We will come back after the break
10:48and continue the discussion.
10:49Stay with us.
10:54Guys, we are back once again to the sports room.
10:56And before going to the break,
10:57we heard the voice of the public.
10:59So, Basit bhai,
11:00the public says that
11:01they feel the lack of Fakhar Zaman.
11:03It will become a dream team
11:04if Fakhar Zaman joins.
11:06Along with that,
11:07we should also mention Imam-ul-Haq.
11:09His one-day record is amazing.
11:12In fact,
11:13he has scored 89 runs
11:16in the Champions Cup.
11:19How do you see it?
11:21Fakhar doesn't need a performance.
11:23He just needs to show himself.
11:25And that is an automatic choice.
