00:00Hello and welcome to Sportsroom. I am your host, Najeeb Alasnain.
00:17We are now used to the disappointing performances of the Pakistan team.
00:21Pakistan has been losing to lower ranked teams.
00:24We have an idea about this as well. This is nothing new.
00:27But the problem here is that the way the Pakistan team is playing, they are giving us a hard time.
00:33How can you think that there is a competition between Zimbabwe and Pakistan?
00:37When Zimbabwe was batting, they scored 60 runs in the 10th over.
00:41We scored 60 runs in the 21st over.
00:44And six players were out.
00:45And obviously when it rained, we were far behind Duckworth Lewis.
00:49And Zimbabwe got the victory.
00:51Former fast bowler Abdul Rauf is with us to talk about this.
00:54Rauf, tell me, is this a joke?
00:59Our cricket has become so bad.
01:01People give excuses that we are losing to our superstars as well.
01:05We have tried a lot of new players here.
01:08But where is the world going and where are we going?
01:11When other new players get a chance, they are ready for this opportunity.
01:16Our new players are so puzzled that Zimbabwe is not handling them.
01:22I think there is a difference in approach and inconsistency.
01:27There is inconsistency in your selection.
01:29There is inconsistency in your Pakistan cricket board.
01:32There is inconsistency in your team management.
01:35The way the players are inducted into the team,
01:41you cannot call it a better organization.
01:47Overall, I think you are not performing consistently.
01:53You win one series, you lose three series, and so on.
01:58One thing that is not digestible is that you are coming from a small team.
02:06You are coming from America.
02:08You are coming from Afghanistan.
02:10You are coming from Ireland.
02:11Zimbabwe had beaten you in Pakistan.
02:14Zimbabwe had beaten you on their home ground.
02:18So, this is a big victory for Pakistan cricket.
02:20Another big thing for me is that your batsmen,
02:25who have been in the National Cricket Academy for a long time,
02:28who have been on your payroll for a long time,
02:30who have been coaching the Pakistan team for 5-6 years,
02:33who have been in the manual,
02:35their performance is completely outdated.
02:38When you bring them on the bouncer pitches,
02:41they don't know how to play.
02:43When they don't know how to play on the swing pitches,
02:45their techniques are getting shattered.
02:47So, your attack, which you have been paying so much for,
02:51and you have been doing it for such a long time,
02:53the way you have done it, there is a question mark.
02:56The coaching staff shuffling again and again,
02:58sometimes you bring in Gary Christian, sometimes Hazar Mahmood,
03:01sometimes Justin Gillespie, sometimes Akif Javed,
03:03sometimes Amity Arthur.
03:05This shuffling again and again, the captaincy shuffling,
03:07there are a lot of things that are the reason for the inconsistent performance of the Pakistan team.
03:12The interesting thing is that the Pakistan team is such that
03:15if you praise someone for one day,
03:17they prove you wrong the next day.
03:19Now, we were praising Rizwan's captaincy,
03:22here the captaincy was so poor,
03:24that you created so much pressure at one point,
03:27then you got him to make 205 runs.
03:30So, this was also a very weak point of yours.
03:33Then you looked absolutely helpless in batting,
03:36and played so slowly.
03:37What is Rizwan saying,
03:39that Zimbabwe put pressure on our batting,
03:41which he could not tolerate, let him tell you first.
03:44Not good for us.
03:45Zimbabwe, they played with experience.
03:47Sikandar Razaini, they took time,
03:49and they went ahead in the end.
03:51So, I think that was the time they were going to give the match from us.
03:53They put us under pressure in the batting group,
03:55but we didn't handle that.
03:56Muzzar Abani and Nagama, they are experienced campaigners.
03:58We have seen them in lots of leagues,
04:00and they played in PSL, we have seen them before that.
04:02They are going to put you under pressure in every condition.
04:04Either you win, or you learn.
04:06Now, we are learning,
04:08because we are not getting the win.
04:10You are not getting the credit.
04:12Muzzar Abani, Sikandar Razaini,
04:14you are not getting the spin bowling of Sikandar Razaini and Sean Williams.
04:18These are the teams from outside,
04:20who are not used to spin bowling.
04:22This is how they play.
04:24This is not an excuse. What do you say?
04:27I don't think this is an excuse.
04:29Especially, this is the established record board of the Pakistan team.
04:33You have been in the ranking for 70 years.
04:36You have given the world big superstars and legends.
04:39And you are making excuses again and again.
04:41I am not hearing this for the first time.
04:43Once, twice, three times, four times, five times, ten times.
04:45We have been hearing this for a long time,
04:47that the team is getting better,
04:49they are bringing new talent,
04:51they are in the development process,
04:53there is a lot of rehabilitation process,
04:55Prana got injured and came out,
04:57Prana is out of form,
04:59so we had to bring him.
05:01This is not an excuse.
05:03You have an established record board.
05:05You should have a proper development process.
05:07You should bring the boys.
05:09Yesterday or day before yesterday,
05:11or seven years ago,
05:13like the teams of Afghanistan, Ireland or Netherlands,
05:15you are not that team.
05:17If you want to induct new boys,
05:19with the passage of time,
05:21keep them with the senior boys,
05:23groom them one by one.
05:25If they don't perform,
05:27then your bench should be strong,
05:29which can replace them.
05:31All other countries run like this.
05:33You have sung a new drama with us,
05:35we are giving chances to new boys,
05:37we are doing this, we are doing that.
05:39You can never give justifications like this.
05:41Because the parts you have done yourself,
05:43if you had so much pressure,
05:45you had new girls playing with you,
05:47then why did you get them batted?
05:49You couldn't see, you couldn't read the pitch.
05:51Then what is this?
05:53He is a Muslim,
05:55he has come to Pakistan,
05:57he has outclassed your batting.
05:59You went to play in Zimbabwe,
06:01you were not called a Muslim there.
06:03So this means that
06:05the part is not in the team,
06:07the part is in your technique.
06:09You are not playing bouncy balls,
06:11you are not playing swing.
06:13Then William came and took two wickets,
06:15Sikandar Raza came and outclassed your three batsmen.
06:17So he is not an exceptional spinner,
06:19he has helped them out a little bit.
06:21And he bowled in the line,
06:23and you didn't even play that.
06:25So keep this excuse in front of us,
06:27if they can give us any other excuse.
06:29I don't understand one more thing,
06:31you have lost in 21 overs,
06:33you have lost by 60 runs.
06:35You must have known for about an hour
06:37that it was going to rain.
06:39You can guess by looking at the atmosphere.
06:41So for Duckwood-Lewis,
06:43you go all the way.
06:45The way we were playing,
06:47it seemed like we were going to
06:49decide with Duckwood.
06:51See, they were basically
06:53attacked by Muzurbani
06:55and the other left-handers,
06:57they didn't understand.
06:59The chances they got,
07:01they couldn't score.
07:03And they were in survival mode.
07:05Their bowler bowled
07:07in an outstanding way,
07:09and they kept losing wickets in
07:11survival mode, and they didn't
07:13even get a chance to attack.
07:15So these things, I think,
07:17your basic question comes
07:19to your coaching staff.
07:21The Pakistan Cricket Board
07:23is going to understand
07:25who you have to make head coaches,
07:27who will be your technical coaches,
07:29who will be your biomechanical experts,
07:31and who will be the other coaching staff.
07:33So until our Pakistan Cricket Board
07:35chairmen understand this,
07:37see, it has never happened in the world
07:39that you have given head coaches
07:41or such big responsibilities
07:43to the intervals of the matter.
07:45Here, it is just a matter of mentoring,
07:47it is a matter of education,
07:49it is a matter of making a plan,
07:51it is a matter of making an assignment,
07:53it is a matter of making a long planning,
07:55so they were highly educated,
07:57like John Buchanan was kept by Australia,
07:59he had four master's degrees,
08:01so he won two World Cups for Australia,
08:03and all the top players,
08:05they worked under him,
08:07and gave Australia the upper hand.
08:09So he was not a first class player,
08:11he was highly educated,
08:13so the staff he had kept downstairs,
08:15they were highly technical staff,
08:17their bowling batting coaches,
08:19they had the ability,
08:21they were working together
08:23and we replaced Gary Christian,
08:25who is the world's super-duper coach,
08:27and who did we replace him with?
08:29So this is a very big injustice
08:31that happened to Pakistan cricket,
08:33it is a very big injustice.
08:35Okay, you said a little while ago
08:37that they lose every 2-3 years,
08:39after 4 years,
08:41from a small team,
08:43and give excuses,
08:45but now it feels strange
08:47to call it upset,
08:49because it is the fourth failure
08:51and if there is a mistake,
08:53then it is a habit,
08:55but we are used to it,
08:57is it right to call it upset?
08:59I think,
09:01if we call it upset,
09:03as you remember,
09:05in the 2007 World Cup,
09:07Pakistan was coming from Ireland,
09:09and there was a shore left in Pakistan
09:11and there was an incident
09:13of Bahubulman,
09:15and we still remember,
09:17because in 20 years or 10 years,
09:19the root reasons,
09:21we should identify the basics,
09:23that what are our problems,
09:25because of which our stable base is not standing,
09:27on which we have to build
09:29the entire Pakistan cricket building,
09:31so your baseline,
09:33as you have seen,
09:35under-19 teams have been announced,
09:37under-19 selection committee has been made,
09:39so there has been a lot of noise in Pakistan,
09:41that the top class performers,
09:43under-19 kids,
09:45have been fired,
09:47so we will have to find these root causes,
09:49that where is our basic problem coming from,
09:51until we find it out,
09:53these small teams will go away,
09:55and if we don't have a strong base,
09:57then we will have to build
09:59the entire cricket structure,
10:01which we have been presenting
10:03in front of the world for 70 years,
10:05we have been representing it,
10:07it has started to hang around,
10:09so I think we will have to fix it.
10:11Right, we will continue the discussion,
10:13let's take a short break.
10:17Glad to have you back once again to Sports Room,
10:19and Abdul Rauf is with us,
10:21Rauf, in the beginning of the program,
10:23I asked you where are we going,
10:25where is the world going,
10:27this is a great example of this,
10:29the test match that took place in Perth,
10:31between India and Australia,
10:33and the way they achieved success,
10:35Boombra is a unique talent,
10:37the captain was also great,
10:39but if you see the role of their young players,
10:41it was the 15th test match of Jaiswal,
10:43the way they came in the 2nd inning
10:45and came in a strong position,
10:47what would you say about this?
10:51I think it was an outstanding
10:53and remarkable day for Indian cricket,
10:55and Australia in Australia,
10:57especially in Perth,
10:59and when you come out in the 1st inning,
11:01and come back in the 2nd inning,
11:03and to come back against Hazlewood,
11:05Stars,
11:07and against Cummins,
11:09and against National Lions,
11:11I think it was a remarkable achievement,
11:13all the credit goes to Jaiswal,
11:15especially Jaiswal,
11:17because I saw him batting in the 1st inning,
11:19in Perth, he was not batting,
11:21when Mr. Stark or Hazlewood
11:23made him bowl,
11:25he used to pass the ball in the middle,
11:27he was not adjusting the speed,
11:29and the bounce,
11:31but in the 2nd inning,
11:33the way he has batted,
11:35I think if I consider him
11:37as one of the world's top class batsmen,
11:39then it won't be bad,
11:41and secondly,
11:43Jaiswal has played 15 first class matches,
11:45and he has played 9 centuries,
11:47he had an average of 65 runs in the 1st class,
11:49and then he came to the Indian team,
11:51and then he started playing against
11:53teams like England,
11:55and then he started playing for centuries,
11:57and he has played an average of 55 runs,
11:59and he is playing Test cricket,
12:01so this is the basic strong of his background.
12:03He should be very strong,
12:05talent comes on merit,
12:07and the way he performs,
12:09and the things that he does,
12:11that's all for today's program,
12:13take care, Allah Hafiz.
