00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:03 Hello.
00:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:05 And welcome to the Pavilion.
00:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:08 Sports are continued coverage of the HBO PSL season 9.
00:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:15 It was between Karachi Kings and Multan Sultans.
00:18 And the Sultans stamping their authority at their home ground,
00:21 winning this one with a margin of 55 runs.
00:24 Before we talk about the game, let
00:25 me bring in my four panelists, four very special guests
00:28 that I have here in the studios with me.
00:30 First up, a very, very kind-hearted human being,
00:34 a real thorough gentleman, very polite, and a very, very great
00:39 batsman for Pakistan.
00:40 He's played a lot of test matches in Pakistan,
00:42 led Pakistan in ODI and test matches.
00:44 I've got Azhar Ali.
00:45 Azhar, good evening and welcome.
00:46 Good evening.
00:47 Next up, Mr. Dependable.
00:49 Whenever the Pakistani batting order was out of order,
00:52 he was always there holding one end up really strongly.
00:54 And one of the most successful test captains of Pakistan Test
00:57 Cricket history, Ms. Fawlah.
00:58 Good evening.
00:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:02 Now, you may have gone to some really fancy colleges,
01:05 private schools, and universities,
01:07 but you've never met a professor like this one.
01:10 We've got the man himself, the professor
01:12 of the game of cricket, also an outstanding cricketer,
01:16 all-rounder, off-spin bowler, batted for Pakistan,
01:18 many a glorious innings.
01:20 I've got Mr. Hafeez with us.
01:21 Hafeez, good evening and [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:23 Very good evening.
01:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:25 And finally, ladies and gentlemen,
01:27 the Australians call him a world-class banker.
01:30 We know him as a great rapper, the sultan of swing
01:33 and the swinging sultan.
01:34 That is what he is.
01:36 And he has come up with some absolutely fantastic gems
01:40 throughout this pavilion journey.
01:43 Without him, the pavilion would be incomplete.
01:46 And Pakistan's cricket history as well.
01:48 I've got the legendary Waseem Akram.
01:50 Good evening and [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:51 Good evening.
01:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:52 Also--
01:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:00 I'm leaving the foundation so that we can cover on the end.
02:04 All right.
02:05 Let's take a look at the match summary first up.
02:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:17 Hendricks there with a great inning.
02:18 It's a 79.
02:19 But Milan also contributing 52.
02:21 Very interesting.
02:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:22 The order, 28 of 13 balls.
02:24 Hamza and Sam's there picking up one wicket each for four.
02:28 But what was surprising was that everybody
02:32 was expecting that Tabrez Shamsi is going to do some fireworks.
02:34 He was the most expensive bowler for Karachi Kings.
02:37 Now Karachi Kings in reply, well, 20 overs,
02:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:41 Shoaib Malik recently [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:46 But put up a good fight there.
02:47 53 is experienced, definitely showing.
02:49 Unfortunately, he couldn't close the game.
02:51 Masood there with Shaan Masood, the captain, 30 of 31 balls.
02:55 And Pollard in the end with some kind of resistance.
02:57 Look at that bowling figure.
02:58 Ali, 3 for 23 in his four overs.
03:00 Fantastic.
03:01 Abbas, 2 for 16 in three overs.
03:03 Also very good.
03:04 And Willie, now we know why Multan Sultans picked up Willie.
03:07 Because if you remember, at the beginning of the innings,
03:10 the difference was made there.
03:11 2 for 22 for Willie.
03:13 So well done.
03:14 And congratulations to Multan Sultans
03:16 as they open their campaign in this HBLPSL ninth season
03:21 with a 55 run victory.
03:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:27, double header.
03:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

03:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:47 [LAUGHTER]
03:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:13 And he's a gun fielder.
04:15 OK, they tried somebody else.
04:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:22 It's a big stage for these young boys.
04:24 He might be a very good player.
04:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:30 But you see-- [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:46 Front leg.
04:47 Front leg-- [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:51 He was the one-- [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
05:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:01 He scored a lot of runs.
06:03 So he's in form.
06:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:12 they could have picked a far better--
06:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:43 You need extra better in there somehow.
06:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
06:48 Malik, who played well, got 50, but lone warrior kind
06:51 of innings.
06:52 Then Nawaz at six, Pollard at seven, Daniel Sams at eight.
06:56 So I'm all for all-rounders.
06:58 Nawaz at five, sir.
06:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:06 You guys can tell better.
07:07 I think they missed out on-- especially on Diplo.
07:10 He was--
07:11 Yeah, we're not talking about Diplo.
07:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:17 You know, as a skipper, you like to have more options.
07:19 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:21 Or you know, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:25 Pollard is a finisher.
07:27 But [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:39 [INAUDIBLE]
07:40 Seven runs.
07:41 Seven runs.
07:41 He hasn't booked.
07:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:46 Decent bowler.
07:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:50 You know, he was good.
07:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
07:54 Otherwise, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:03 At least [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:05 Impact players [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:07 Top seven.
08:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:11 Then 100.
08:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:23 Anchoring is not going to help.
08:25 But interestingly, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:38 They've lost some momentum.
08:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:41 That gap came in.
08:45 Credit to the Karachi Kings bowlers at that period.
08:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
08:49 I spoke to Milan.
08:56 And he said they bowled well.
08:57 So you've got to credit to the bowlers
08:59 when they bowl good spells.
09:00 So maybe that was a little spell.
09:01 They looked good.
09:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:07 I understand that.
09:08 They'll probably get the combination right
09:09 in the next game, hopefully.
09:10 Yes, but the margins need to be closer, right?
09:12 You're right.
09:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:14 Please let's talk about Hasan Ali there now.
09:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:17 But there was nothing--
09:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:31 Which I think he's working on it.
09:42 Like even test wicket, maybe he was
09:43 struggling to have that pace.
09:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:47 I'm just saying--
09:48 You can.
09:49 You can tell it better than me.
09:50 As a fast bowler, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
09:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:36 He was consistently bowling 140, 140 plus there
10:40 in South Africa.
10:42 Yeah, 140 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:44 138, 139, reverse, bouncers, slow balls.
10:49 And then suddenly, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
10:52 I could see that maybe he needs to work on his strength
11:03 more.
11:04 Why?
11:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:06 It's all about fitness.
11:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:09 And then he goes to England, which
11:11 are also favorable conditions for fast bowlers.
11:13 Why would--
11:13 I think it's all about--
11:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:17 Yeah.
11:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:41 Bowling endurance, bowling muscles,
11:44 plus [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:46 muscle strength [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:50 Azhar?
11:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
11:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:04 Late bowling, right?
12:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:07 Doesn't matter how much--
12:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:44 He goes slightly leg-sided.
12:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
12:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:06 I have one question to all three of you.
13:19 So when you win a toss and you chase,
13:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:26 So they won the toss, and they fielded.
13:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
13:53 So you should have batted first, and instead--
13:56 but it's too late.
13:57 But I think--
13:58 Hindsight.
13:58 Again, early days.
13:59 Early days.
14:00 Early days.
14:00 With that, we're going to take a break right here
14:02 on the pavilion.
14:02 But when we come back, there's more on the other side.
14:05 Stay with us.
14:06 Welcome back to the pavilion.
14:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:13 HBLPSL9 special coverage right here
14:15 on "A Sports" in the pavilion.
14:17 And in the pavilion, I'm joined by four fantastic
14:19 cricketing minds.
14:20 I've got Azhar Ali, Miz Bahul Haq, Muhammad Hafeez,
14:22 and the great Wasim Akram.
14:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:25 Wasim, you had a good point.
14:30 It may be early days.
14:31 It's time for them to kind of go back to the drawing board.
14:34 But before, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:36 So tell us, what do you think?
14:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:45 What is a likely combination, or where
14:49 will they like to tweak now?
14:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
14:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:01 Correct.
15:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:24 I'm really impressed with the boss of free [INAUDIBLE]
15:45 Yes.
15:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
15:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:25 The history of any team, most by any team in the history of PSL.
16:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:34 And help them earn from those teams.
16:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:44 I think that really helped them.
16:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
16:59 So rightly, I think--
17:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:32 I think that is the event for--
17:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:35 But there was a plan.
17:49 They acknowledged the good bowling of the opposition.
17:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
17:53 So that is something I think they adjusted according
17:59 to the situation of the game very well as a team.
18:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:03 I think overall, it was a fantastic game for Multan Sultan.
18:08 Yeah, totally.
18:09 And strategically looking really on top of the game,
18:12 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:13 And then saying, you know, let's revise.
18:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:28 Finisher slash [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:30 185 always a big ask.
18:35 Yes.
18:36 And obviously, it was very windy today in Multan.
18:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:57 Yeah, so that's--
18:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
18:59 David Billy bats at number three.
19:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:07 Abbas Safridi is capable.
19:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:35 Ticket-taking options, it looks a very good unit.
19:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:39 And that also, you know--
19:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:44 I know, it was--
19:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:50 We'll get tested further.
19:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:52 But they have a thing--
19:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
19:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:00 Plus, yeah, getting percentage, there is something
20:07 that they do really well.
20:09 They absorb the pressure.
20:10 They take the defeat, you know, well.
20:12 And they know how to, you know, kind of move on.
20:14 And-- but let me ask you-- sorry.
20:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:33 [LAUGHTER]
20:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:39 [LAUGHTER]
20:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:47 Yeah, so three consecutive changes, three years.
20:53 It can play a part.
20:54 But I think--
20:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
20:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:15 [LAUGHTER]
21:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:20 Sorry, Shan.
21:29 Sorry, buddy.
21:30 You've got to take the--
21:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:32 Finally, but yeah, probably.
21:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:38 [LAUGHTER]
21:41 A nice one.
21:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:52 OK, fine.
21:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:56 Number one--
21:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
21:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:05 And then your ball is--
22:14 we're taking options.
22:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:19 And guys, remember in the morning pre-show,
22:26 I said especially--
22:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:29 And Blessing Mazhar Abani, he's there.
22:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:39 Overton actually was a very-- he's a good player.
22:43 He's got heavy balls.
22:44 140, 145.
22:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:48 Yeah, I mean, he gave him only seven runs.
22:53 Just seven runs.
22:54 I know.
22:55 I mean, this is strange.
22:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
22:57 The only thing--
23:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:04 It doesn't make sense, right?
23:15 Unless there is an injury, this doesn't make sense.
23:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:18 That's what I'm saying.
23:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:44 And he's also a keeper, am I right?
23:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
23:57 OK, you're finished, then I'll have a question for you guys.
24:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:23 Why you take under 19 guys?
24:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:26 I have a question to all three of you guys.
24:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
24:53 What's the reason?
25:01 Have you ever--
25:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:03 That's true.
25:09 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:20 That's true.
25:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:27 He struggled.
25:37 Basically, a top player.
25:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:47 Fast bowling, excitement, pace.
25:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
25:51 Jack McGurk or something.
25:55 He's a young guy.
25:56 No, no, he's a batter.
25:58 He is the future of Australian batting.
26:00 That's what Ricky Ponting said.
26:02 That's what Matthew Hayden says.
26:04 Jack McGurk, I think, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:06 Jack, I'm missing it.
26:08 I've seen him bat in T20 format.
26:11 Or I've seen him bat in 50-over format.
26:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:16 So Australia is crazy about him.
26:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:27 He's a gun fielder.
26:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:30 He couldn't even cover the line of the ball.
26:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
26:55 Wasim, here's your over that.
26:56 Look at the length he's hitting.
26:58 Look at that.
26:59 Look at that.
27:00 Incredible.
27:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:29 But he's not basically--
27:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
27:51 Because before I forget, this boy's name
28:10 is Jake Fraser McGurk.
28:11 Right.
28:12 You guys should watch him.
28:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:14 Wow.
28:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:19 He doesn't stop.
28:20 He doesn't stop.
28:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:22 You go play your own game.
28:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:25 I think Mazhar will tell me, he looks like 21, 22 to me.
28:30 And he's a gun fielder.
28:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:33 Yeah, he's good.
28:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:38 He's 21 years.
28:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
28:49 Let me tell you about this young boy.
29:05 I think future [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:07 One of my favorite young players, Jake Fraser McGurk.
29:11 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:15 For South Australia, the fastest ever 100 list day cricket.
29:18 Wow.
29:19 Wow.
29:20 So you've got to see his style, the way he bats.
29:22 There is an evolution of players around the world.
29:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:32 I saw him.
29:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:47 So we should praise that.
29:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
29:55 I think [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
30:11 Absolutely.
30:26 We're going to talk about that.
30:27 It's a good point that you bring in.
30:29 But I have to take a break.
30:30 But before we take a break today,

31:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

31:28 And with me in The Pavilion, I've got Azhar Ali.

31:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
31:56 He can forgive me.
32:09 OK.
32:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:11 Credit to Wasim Akram.
32:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:19 He was in the office at the studios.
32:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:36 Just in case you guys wanted to--
32:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:40 Thank you, man.
32:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
32:43 Earlier today, we had another game of cricket.
33:10 And that was the Quetta Gladiators
33:12 matching with Peshawar Zalmi.
33:13 And Quetta Gladiators opening their campaign
33:15 with a victory against Peshawar Zalmi.
33:17 It was a fantastic game of cricket.
33:19 In the end, Zalmi just not able to complete yet.
33:21 He met somebody.
33:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:23 Jason Royle [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:27 What was really good to see was South Shaquille scoring
33:30 that 74 of 47 deliveries.
33:32 It was a fantastic innings by this young man, South Shaquille.
33:35 A great prospect for Pakistan.
33:37 He's represented Pakistan.
33:38 He's had some trouble.
33:39 But he definitely still looks very promising to give--
33:42 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:48 You know, you bring up a good point.
33:50 But just before [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
33:53 As team director, you were with the team and coaching
33:57 as well and so forth.
33:58 There are moments--
33:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:01 Of course, we lost the series.
34:03 Of course, New Zealand results were not good.
34:06 But there were so many key moments throughout the series
34:09 when it looked like [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:11 Twice.
34:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:14 And we just couldn't get it.
34:20 Catches dropped at the most crucial times.
34:22 But there were sessions we were definitely
34:24 dominating Australia.
34:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:33 We'd given it away because [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:36 Especially the Melbourne [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:48 They were 40 for four and then the drop catch by--
34:50 16 for four.
34:51 16 for four and then they'd given it away.
34:53 But it happened.
34:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
34:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
35:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
35:25 I have to give you credit, Hafeez,
35:51 because you came to the press and said we came to win.
35:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
35:55 I did that because I noticed--
36:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
36:20 We gave them a boost.
36:21 And they've shown that in the ground.
36:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
36:49 I have so many things to say.
36:51 I'd rather keep my gob shut.
36:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
36:54 Pakistan haven't made an air tour to Australia since 14 years.
37:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:18 I'm all for them, but--
37:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:28 They were talking about some other parts.
37:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:35 I remember.
37:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:40 So let's work on this.
37:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:47 Pakistan A, or Pakistan women team.
37:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
37:59 '83, '84, maybe even '81, '82, '83, '84,
38:04 Pakistan Cricket Board.
38:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:15 Went to Australia to play great cricket.
38:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:22 They play cricket on every weekend.
38:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:28 They're still playing.
38:32 It's very tough.
38:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:46 Arrange--
38:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:50 Right.
38:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
38:57 They'll play for Pakistan.
39:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:19 I'll tell you a very good story if you have time.
39:21 Yes, of course.
39:22 Couple of minutes.
39:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:24 So my captain at the time, the great man, Skipper Imran Bhai,
39:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:33 '86, April--
39:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:40 --actually, January, February, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:42 --league.
39:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
39:44 50 pound a week.
39:55 Money didn't matter to me at the time.
39:57 I just wanted to play cricket.
39:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:01 Quite a few cricketers were playing league cricket
40:22 in that area, quite a few.
40:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:26 I got 100 there.
40:38 I got wickets there.
40:39 But confidence--
40:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:52 April, I didn't know the weather is winters.
40:55 And I mean, I think--
40:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
40:57 So that made a lot of difference to me.
41:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:08 Somehow, I'm competitive.
41:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:16 Position--
41:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:19 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:21 Was still remains there.
41:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
41:48 Yes, self-management.
41:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:01 These things compound together to create a--
42:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:29 We're going to take another break right here on the Pavilion.
42:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:32 #AskThePavilion.
42:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
42:40 Right here in the Pavilion, you're watching "A.S. Sports,"
42:52 our continued coverage of the HBO ESL season 9.
42:55 Stay with us.
42:56 [MUSIC PLAYING]
42:58 [WHISTLE BLOWING]
42:59 All right, welcome back to the Pavilion.
43:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
43:03 Our continued coverage of the HBO ESL 9.
43:05 And this is the Pavilion.
43:06 With me in the Pavilion, I have got four fantastic cricketing
43:09 minds.
43:10 I've got Azhar Ali, I've got Miss Paul Harker,
43:12 I've got Muhammad Hafeez, and the great Wasim Akram.
43:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
43:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
43:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
43:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
43:26 Is there a way, the message to make stadiums look more colorful
43:42 be communicated to the organizers or franchise owners?
43:45 Having more franchise flags across the ground would add value.
43:48 Going by the two games, we are getting good attendance
43:52 in the ground, and adding color would be awesome.
43:55 Ask the Pavilion from Green Brigade.
43:57 Wasim, they're saying there should be more color and all that.
44:00 And you have an issue with the stadium.
44:02 I do, I do.
44:03 So you can share that.
44:04 I can share that to PCB.
44:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
44:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
44:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
44:36 Yeah, that's not a bad idea.
44:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
44:39 T20 is all about festivity.
44:53 It's all about fest--
44:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
44:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:05 I think everything is missing now for some odd reason.
45:21 I think it's got to do--
45:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:23 --with the economy and also got to do with the leadership in PCB.
45:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:27 And all these issues, they do matter.
45:32 Leadership do matter.
45:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:34 He's got three years.
45:37 I hope he stays for three years.
45:39 I hope so.
45:40 And whatever time he stays for, I'm told--
45:43 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:44 I hope that there are some meaningful changes
45:49 very fast in the Pakistan cricket board.
45:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
45:54 --while discussing workload management for Pacers.
46:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:06 --wasn't playing back-to-back series or tournaments
46:11 in the past few years that he required workload management.
46:14 This is a typical--
46:16 excuse my French uncle mentality--
46:18 to say there's no such thing as workload management
46:21 while you're at it.
46:22 Can you ask, [INAUDIBLE] if the earth is flat?
46:25 So yeah, so he's basically asking--
46:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
46:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:13 So we know how to manage that workload thing.
47:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
47:39 Right.
48:02 Then you play for a passion, and you win the game.
48:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:05 You have to.
48:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:08 And who would solve the parks middle order problems
48:23 while it's batting?
48:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:25 You take this one.
48:27 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:28 He could be one.
48:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:36 Only thing which Pakistan needs to do--
48:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
48:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
49:20 And we have to look--
49:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
49:23 Agha Salman, right.
49:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
49:31 All right.
49:43 Question for-- OK.
49:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
49:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
49:48 Feels like the sum is less than its parts.
50:01 Wasim, let me bring this to you.
50:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:04 I know, but--
50:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:09 All right.
50:13 They'll get it there.
50:14 They'll get theirs.
50:15 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:28 I still believe--
50:29 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:30 It's good enough.
50:31 Good enough.
50:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:33 Yusuf Malik [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:38 Yusuf Malik [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:39 Can we expect Waqar Yunus and his silver shoes
50:42 on the pavilion?
50:43 Can he be the fifth panelist?
50:45 Actually, no, we cannot expect Waqar Yunus,
50:48 neither his silver shoes, which, by the way, Wasim loves.
50:51 He wants a pair for himself as well, if I'm not mistaken.
50:54 But Waqar Yunus [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
50:56 Yeah, all of them did.
50:57 Thank God I came here.
50:58 I mean, I'm all for kandura, but I'm not a kandura guy.
51:01 Right, right, right.
51:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
51:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
51:05 That's why he would not be joining us in the pavilion
51:17 in the near future, until he gears up his stamina.
51:19 With that, we're going to take a break right here
51:21 on the pavilion.
51:22 Stay with us.
51:23 We've got more on the other side.
51:24 Don't go away.
51:25 [MUSIC PLAYING]
51:27 Welcome back to the pavilion.
51:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
51:31 As you can see, sports continued coverage of the HBLPSL season
51:34 9 with me in the pavilion.
51:36 I've got Azhar Ali, Ms. [INAUDIBLE]
51:38 Muhammad Hafeez, and the great Wasim Akram.
51:40 Or #AskThePavilion.
51:42 Very good.
51:43 Well done, guys.
51:44 We're getting all the questions, and we want to answer them.
51:47 Right, also, we still have a lot of questions coming in on #AskThePavilion.
51:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
51:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
51:53 And I think they need to explain that.
52:17 We're also waiting to get some clarity on what happened,
52:20 why it happened, what was the reason.
52:22 Because we have to watch the game so that we can discuss it.
52:25 So we were also blinded for about two and a half--
52:27 So if people are asking these questions,
52:29 they'll understand that we're here.
52:31 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
52:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
52:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
52:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
52:48 I think the link was broken, or something like that.
52:54 We don't know that, but it was Pakistan Cricket Board and PSL
52:57 on the other side that were rectifying the issue.
52:59 And they did rectify the issue eventually.
53:01 [INAUDIBLE]
53:02 It happens, yeah.
53:03 Early days--
53:04 Yeah, early days again.
53:05 --can happen.
53:06 Early days again.
53:07 But definitely, everybody works very hard
53:09 to make sure that we bring to you uninterrupted and crisp
53:13 quality pictures to your screen so that you can enjoy the Pakistan
53:16 Super League really well.
53:17 With that, you know what?
53:18 I have some good news for you, Wasim.
53:22 Yeah, please get on with it, man.
53:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
53:25 It's chutti time in school.
53:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
53:27 Let's go.
53:28 All right, with that, first up, Azad, thank you very much--
53:30 Thank you.
53:31 --for being here with us.
53:32 And thank you, Muhammad Hafeez.
53:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
