00:00Hello and welcome to SportsZoom. I am your host, Najeeb Ulhasnain.
00:17The second and last test match of the series between Pakistan and Bangladesh will be played in Rawalpindi tomorrow.
00:23As you know, the guest team has won by 1-0.
00:27Pakistan has to save both the series and its reputation.
00:31Our sports correspondent, Mr. Shahid Hashmi is with us in the studio.
00:35Mr. Shahid, Assalam-o-Alaikum. Welcome to the show.
00:37First of all, it is a pity that you were there to see all this.
00:43And it is a very sad thing that Pakistan from Bangladesh,
00:46which is a team that faces the worst political unrest and comes here to practice and defeats us.
00:52Now the problem in this package is that everyone knows that Pakistan has to win the match and also fight the weather.
00:58Because if the match is drawn because of the rain, then the series will be lost.
01:03When luck is bad, then the weather is also bad.
01:06And it seems that if it rains more and the match is bad and affected,
01:11then maybe this test match cannot be decided.
01:14And Bangladesh will be very happy that this test match is not decided.
01:18Although in the first test match, they out Pakistan with their better planning and knowledge.
01:25And they had a very good insider in the form of Mushtaq Ahmed,
01:28who told them that this will be a flat pitch and the batting will be maintained for 4 days.
01:33And on the last day, the spinners will get help from the small cracks in it.
01:37Every player from Bangladesh came to 3 press conferences.
01:40Their coach came, Mushtaq Ahmed came and then the captain came on the last day.
01:44And on the last day, their players had the same opinion that this pitch will be maintained for batting and not for fast bowling.
01:51And Pakistan has always thought that if it rains, then we have to out quickly.
01:57We will out, we will win the toss, we will fly Bangladesh on fast bowling.
02:02Pakistan ran on all assumptions.
02:04And Shahan Masood said this even after coming to the press conference that we made these mistakes.
02:09And in cricket, if the edges get stuck, it becomes a boundary.
02:12If they get stuck, it becomes a boundary.
02:14If our edges get stuck, we become bold.
02:16I have seen such assumptions of Pakistan for the first time.
02:19And now Jason Gillis is also saying that he used to take drinks and gloves again and again,
02:25so our slow over rate has become.
02:27So brother, when you were bowling on the first day, why didn't you realize it on the second or third day?
02:32And you went to take 6 points, 12 points.
02:34You lost 6 points.
02:36We didn't eat or drink anything.
02:38We broke the glass.
02:40We lost 6 points.
02:42Tell me, I would like to add one more thing to what you said.
02:45You were thinking about the rain on the fifth day.
02:48How could that be a part of your plan that if it rains on the last day, the match will be saved?
02:53The weather of Pindi on all assumptions.
02:55We have our friends, we will take them in the program as well.
02:58Rizwan Hassan Ali.
02:59He often says that it will rain for 6 days.
03:02It doesn't rain.
03:03It rains for 1-2 days.
03:04This time also, apart from the first day, it never rained.
03:07So the weather there is like this.
03:09Our weather forecast is sometimes very accurate, sometimes not at all.
03:14But if you already decide on assumptions that this is a fast bowling pitch,
03:18the weather will be bad, we will take Bangladesh, then this is the result.
03:22You talked about Mushtaq Ahmed.
03:23There was an insider there who was explaining to him.
03:27All of them were sitting here and thinking.
03:30We are talking about this.
03:32Two days ago, the team announced that how can you go without a spinner?
03:36Now, even if you blame the Australian coach for this,
03:39he also feeds Nathan Lyon in the same condition.
03:41The Australian curator is equally responsible.
03:43The Australian head coach as well.
03:45In the last 10-12 years, 12 years ago, in 2012, in Perth,
03:50he went against India without a spinner.
03:53After that, the last year's Ashes series, because Nathan Lyon was unfit,
03:57he didn't feed Murphy in Old Trafford and went with an all-pace attack.
04:01In the last 12 years, a team like Australia,
04:04in just two tests, without a spinner.
04:06And here, in your home ground, as you know,
04:09when you made 448 runs,
04:13when you batted on the first day,
04:15and when you batted on the second day,
04:17you should have realized then that there is nothing left in this pitch.
04:20We shouldn't have declared on 448.
04:23If there was something in the pitch, you should have declared on 448.
04:26When you saw that there was nothing in the pitch,
04:28then you would have gone for 600-650 runs and would have batted only once.
04:32Okay, we have talked about the Australian coach and curator.
04:35My point is, why weren't the Pakistanis giving advice?
04:37Shahan Masood knows that he has played so much cricket here,
04:40that he can explain things here.
04:42Azhar Mehmood came every day, he justified every day.
04:45And what a disaster it turned out to be.
04:47Seriously, Pakistan misread the pitch and kept thinking that it would be a very good wicket.
04:51Azhar Mehmood gave a very remarkable quote.
04:54He said, we didn't misread this pitch,
04:57but it didn't turn out the way we wanted it to.
05:00So who misread it? You misread it.
05:02Absolutely right.
05:03Let's take a break here. We will continue the discussion later.
05:10Glad to have you back once again.
05:11There is very little time left in the program.
05:12Obviously, when the match starts tomorrow, we will talk about it in detail.
05:15Right now, the big news is that Shaheen is out.
05:18And this team is coming forward.
05:20So obviously, we have learned a lot from the mistakes of the last test match.
05:23You are including Abrar as well.
05:25And you were telling me about Sajid Khan.
05:28We have made a big mistake that he is not in the squad.
05:30When Sajid Khan went to Bangladesh two years ago,
05:34he scored 12 runs in one test match.
05:36Out of the top 6 orders in Bangladesh, he has 5 runs.
05:39You are not giving him an off-brick bowler.
05:41You didn't keep him in any list.
05:43And if Shaheen Shah Afridi had to rest for the second test,
05:46he went home on Sunday to meet his son.
05:49You called him back on Tuesday and now he will come back to Karachi.
05:52You should have told him earlier that you have to rest for the second test.
05:55He wouldn't have called you.
05:56And what kind of mistakes are you making?
05:58According to me, the kind of shot that Abdullah Shafiq scored,
06:01he should have either fined $1000 or got a warning in this test match.
06:07If you don't take a hard decision, then you will have such defeats.
06:12And there will be a lot of pressure on Shahan Masood as well.
06:14He is going to give his first 4 tests.
06:16His first 4 tests.
06:17His first Pakistani test.
06:18Absolutely right.
06:19And this is your home test.
06:20And he himself says that he wants to make his home a fort.
06:23The decisions that he is taking, the kind of work he is doing,
06:26it doesn't become a fort.
06:27Now this is a very common meme that Asian countries going to Australia or Sena,
06:32it has become difficult for Pakistan to play in Pakistan.
06:35It has become very difficult.
06:36And we are losing 5 out of 9 home tests.
06:38We have drawn 4.
06:39I don't know when we will win the next one.
06:41Yes, absolutely.
06:42Finally, what do you think?
06:43What should we do if we win the toss?
06:44What should be the strategy?
06:45They have already told 12.
06:46It is likely that we will see what will happen.
06:48We will know after seeing the pitch.
06:50Today they didn't see the pitch.
06:52It is raining again.
06:53It is raining again.
06:54So now whatever has to be done, Bangladesh has to do it.
06:56Pakistan has to do it.
06:57We have to tolerate it.
06:58We have to follow up.
06:59Absolutely right.
07:00For now, this is all for our program.
07:02We take your leave.
07:03Take care of yourself.
07:04Allah Hafiz.
