00:00A South Africa managed to do a 180 degree, it's a win for them.
00:29Pakistan will save the series or South Africa will take the game, the decision will be made in today's centurion.
00:37There was a batting flop in Durban, now there is no room for error, they will have to make runs, that too fast.
00:43Babur's form is waiting for everyone, he made a mid century in T20, 10 innings have passed.
00:51Even in the opening combination, there is a chance of change, they can start with Saim Ayub, Babur or Rezwan.
01:01In the super sports park, Pakistan was an unbeatable defeat.
01:07Those who played 4 matches against the figure, all won.
01:11In the centurion, Totias's record was bad, Rezwan's team won only 6 and Mehman's team won 9 matches.
01:17In the centurion, the team that won the toss also won more matches.
01:20That's why the character of the toss will also be important.
01:26Hello and welcome to sports room, I am your host Najeeb Ul Hasanain.
01:30You have seen the report, two things are very important in this match.
01:33First, it is very important to save the series.
01:36The defeat here will be the series of South Africa.
01:38Secondly, we have never lost in the centurion, our record is very good.
01:43To talk about this and many other things, I have with me in the studio, our sports correspondent Shahid Ashmi.
01:48Shahid sir, Assalamualaikum.
01:49Walaikumassalam.
01:50The record is very good, the best score by a batsman, Babur Azam has 122,
01:58here bowling figures, in 2013, Omar Gul has 5 wickets of 6 runs.
02:02He has played very well here, but our batting is struggling in recent times.
02:07Here runs are also made a lot.
02:09Centurion's ground is a fast wicket and runs are also made on it.
02:13The ground is also small from one side and two sides.
02:16Pakistan has chased a target of 200+.
02:20It would be good if South Africa makes 200 runs and we make 200 runs.
02:24And then Babur Azam should do something because he has run in 10 innings.
02:28Babur Azam is criticized so much, he is a good player.
02:32But now he is not able to do it, he did not do it in the last 10 innings.
02:35But if he is not able to do it in 10 innings,
02:38it does not mean that he has made 4000 runs in T20 cricket.
02:41He is a very good player and I have full hope that he will make runs today
02:45and Pakistan will win the match and make a series.
02:48We are going on this hope that Babur will run sometime.
02:51I also had hope.
02:52But tell me that there is a lot of criticism on the opening pair.
02:55And it is not wrong that when they do the opening,
02:58they waste the power play and pressure on the upcoming batsmen.
03:02They have won matches and they have the highest partnership in T20 cricket in the world.
03:08But their strike rate is always a topic of debate.
03:11They should also think about it.
03:13Rizwan is now a captain, Babur Azam was a captain.
03:16Babur Azam is still considered one of the best players in the world.
03:20They should also think about it.
03:22Babur Azam is the highest strike rate among all the batsmen in Pakistan.
03:28But they should know that T20 cricket has now reached 150 with a strike rate of 120-130.
03:34You look at Travis Head, Tilak Verma, Sanju Samson,
03:38all the big cricketers who are playing T20 cricket now,
03:41Klaasan, Miller, Quinton de Kock, they all play with a strike rate of 140-150.
03:47They should realize that we have to go one gear ahead.
03:52My point is that let's say one person plays with a strike rate of 130.
03:56Babur Azam can afford it.
03:58Kane Williamson used to play slow.
04:01But the players around him play fast.
04:04If Rizwan, Babur Azam, and other players play slow,
04:08it won't work.
04:09There are some policies where Rizwan wants to be the anchor.
04:12He wants to play from start to finish.
04:14Or if Babur Azam is not out, he wants to play from start to finish.
04:17But there should be someone to hit in front of him.
04:20Tayyab Tahir scored a runner ball.
04:23Usman came and hit a runner ball in the first game.
04:25Then he went for a shell.
04:26If you don't hit from the other end,
04:29the anchoring system won't work.
04:31Now in international cricket, there is no anchoring system.
04:34Now you have to hit from both ends.
04:36Look at India, England, Australia.
04:39All the teams, you have to hit from both ends.
04:42That style where one will anchor and the other will hit,
04:45that won't work.
04:46It will work in a team where you have 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 big power hitters.
04:52That's why I sent Shaheen.
04:54Shaheen hits well.
04:56It's a big mistake to think of Shaheen as an all-rounder.
05:00He's not PSL. He's international.
05:02He's not an all-rounder.
05:03You can use him as a pinch hitter.
05:05When the captain doesn't do out-of-the-box,
05:08we say...
05:09This is not out-of-the-box.
05:11This doesn't make any sense.
05:14Irrfan Khan...
05:15Shaheen has scored big in PSL.
05:18I'm saying this. He's not PSL.
05:20He's not PSL. He's international.
05:21If you don't try, you won't develop.
05:24This bilateral series is to develop your players.
05:28You took a chance.
05:29You didn't click.
05:30If we were sitting here and Shaheen had hit 2-3 sixes,
05:33everyone would have said wow.
05:34This is the third time we've sent Shaheen in international cricket
05:37and it didn't happen.
05:38Secondly, Irrfan Khan is a fast-paced player.
05:40It's not like...
05:41Irrfan is a gentleman batsman.
05:43It should have happened that Irrfan came up and Shaheen came down.
05:46But they thought that the asking rate increased
05:48and the one who increased it was the captain.
05:50That's right.
05:51Tell me something.
05:52Now they're going to that point.
05:54The problem with the Pakistan team is that
05:56if you praise someone,
05:57the next day he comes and does something
05:59that you say you praised wrongly.
06:01In Australia, we were praising Rizwan's captaincy.
06:04In Wanda.
06:05In Wanda.
06:06Now the criticism is that Rizwan is the same captain.
06:10Like Babar was saying,
06:11whether you make him or him, it's the same thing.
06:13When this opening pair has gone again in the first match,
06:16are you feeling the same thing?
06:17Yes, it should have happened.
06:19The coach who is sitting in the dugout,
06:22he also always had the opinion that Rizwan and Babar should open.
06:25He said the same thing everywhere.
06:26Ideally, it was that Saim and Babar Azam or Saim and Rizwan should open.
06:31You would have a combination of left and right.
06:33And now you have in the top order,
06:35Usman Khan, Tayyab Tahir or Irrfan.
06:39You don't even have a left-hander.
06:41Maybe one reason is that
06:42Shaheen was sent up so that a left-hander comes.
06:45So you don't have a left-hander yet.
06:48If it would have happened,
06:49or you would have taken Irrfan Minhaj,
06:51he is a good hitter.
06:52You would have given him a few matches.
06:54You gave him a match in Zimbabwe.
06:56Pakistan's T20 cricket is very confusing.
06:59I don't understand how this will be fixed
07:01and how we will go to the level of the world's top teams.
07:04We are taking a lot of time.
07:06If we want to play the next T20 World Cup,
07:10then you have one more series.
07:12You can experiment.
07:13But you will have to go with a set plan.
07:16Even if you change your players in that set plan,
07:18but the plan has to be a set.
07:20What are the chances you are seeing today?
07:21There are good chances.
07:22In the Centurion,
07:23the Pakistan team will have a vibe
07:25that we always win here.
07:27We did good bowling,
07:28we did good batting.
07:29We are back to the walls.
07:31We are losing the last match by 11 runs.
07:33If we had played a little faster in the middle overs,
07:35in the 14th over,
07:36we got 4 runs.
07:37In the 15th over,
07:38we got 3 runs.
07:39Those were very crucial overs.
07:40And after that,
07:41after power play,
07:427, 8, 9, 10 overs.
07:44In 7, 8, 9, 10 overs,
07:46even if you don't bowl a boundary or a six,
07:48but at least make 10 to 11 runs.
07:51If you make only 23 runs in those 4 overs,
07:56then you will go back.
07:57Before going to the break,
07:58today's important news is that
08:00Imad Waseem has announced his retirement from international cricket.
08:03He said in a message on social media
08:05that playing for Pakistan was the greatest honor.
08:08Every moment he played for Pakistan
08:10was unforgettable.
08:12Before T20 World Cup,
08:13Imad Waseem announced his retirement.
08:15And then he came back to T20 World Cup.
08:17His performance was not that good there.
08:19And he was blamed a lot in the match against India.
08:22How do you see Imad Waseem's career?
08:24I feel he could have achieved a lot.
08:27He has underachieved.
08:28Imad was a good player.
08:30He had some fitness issues.
08:32People complained about his attitude.
08:35The selection committee also treated him unfairly.
08:38He was a very good ODI player.
08:40His average in ODI is 42-43.
08:42His economy in T20 is 6.
08:44Which is a good economy for a spinner.
08:47But he didn't play regular cricket.
08:49He couldn't give Pakistan what he should have given.
08:52Pakistan had gambled to bring him to T20 World Cup.
08:55But that goal was not achieved.
08:57Especially that match against India.
08:59If Imad Waseem had batted well there,
09:01he made 23 runs in 15 balls.
09:04If he had won that match there,
09:06everyone would have called him a hero.
09:08He would have been the captain of India.
09:10Anything can happen.
09:12Let's take a commercial break.
09:30Glad to have you back once again to Sports Room.
09:32One more big news.
09:34Jason Gillespie's departure.
09:36Mr. Shahid told us about it yesterday.
09:38He was about to resign.
09:40He didn't extend Tim Nielsen's contract.
09:43He knew he would resign.
09:45His resignation was accepted.
09:47And Akif Javed has been made the interim coach.
09:49How do you see this?
09:51Pakistan is very good for cricket.
09:53Because Gillespie didn't influence it at all.
09:55He was not aware of Pakistan's culture,
09:57Pakistan's pitchers,
09:59Pakistan's players.
10:01He didn't give him time.
10:03You said he was writing a diary.
10:05Each person's number,
10:07each thing.
10:09But he didn't impress at all.
10:11Especially in the Bangladesh series,
10:13I got an idea after watching two test matches.
10:15That he is a completely different coach.
10:17And the way he adopted
10:19the Hikmat-e-Amli rule.
10:21Both test matches will be won by Bangladesh
10:23on pace pitches.
10:25We don't have spinners.
10:27The feedback he gave,
10:29Azhar Mehmood's feedback was also there.
10:31There are no spinners in Pakistan.
10:33And even if there are, they are not fit enough
10:35to play test cricket.
10:37I got an idea from Bangladesh's two test matches.
10:39When the first test match was held in England,
10:41I got an idea that Gillespie's
10:43shelf life was over.
10:45He had to do all the coaching.
10:47He had started this internationally.
10:49He had to move forward.
10:51He did all the coaching in Yorkshire,
10:53in South Australia. It's over.
10:55Pakistan has good coaches.
10:57Pakistan depends on its coaches.
10:59But this image doesn't go wrong
11:01that you called Gary Kirsten.
11:03First you call him, then you give him everything.
11:05You select, you do this, you do that.
11:07Then you start taking things back.
11:09Now there was a lot of noise about Tim Nelson
11:11that he brought his man.
11:13Now Aqib Javed has come, so didn't he bring Shahid Aslam?
11:15It happens that the man who
11:17trusts his people.
11:19Every player also praises Shahid Aslam.
11:21The way he throws down,
11:23the way he works hard.
11:25Of course, you brought a batting coach.
11:27You brought a big player.
11:29You tried with Muhammad Yusuf.
11:31You tried with Yunus Khan.
11:33There is no consistency.
11:35If you brought Yunus, you kept him tall.
11:37Yunus is a great player.
11:39If you brought Yusuf, you kept him tall.
11:41You put him in the selection committee.
11:43You made him a batting coach.
11:45You put him in the junior selection committee.
11:47You made him the head coach of the junior team.
11:49Don't give so many posts.
11:51Give one post and work on consistency.
11:53This is what you have done in the U19.
11:55You made 5-6 coaches.
11:57Look at the other teams.
11:59They have coaches who know every player of the U19 for 3 years.
12:01Tell me one thing.
12:03You made Aqib Javed.
12:05What do you see ahead?
12:07We are talking about the international league.
12:09There are not so many coaches in the international market.
12:11All the big coaches
12:13do T20 leagues.
12:15They rest for 6 months.
12:17They spend time with the family.
12:19They have a good bank balance.
12:21If you have a first class level coach
12:23like Sunil Gavaskar
12:25he is not ready to come.
12:27You contacted Adam Borges.
12:29He refused.
12:31He has been giving 3 titles to Western Australia for 2 years.
12:33He is a good coach.
12:35There are many other coaches.
12:37But no one is ready to come.
12:39After these things, there will be no more.
12:41Let's talk about the Gabba test.
12:43What will India be able to do?
12:45Indian great Sunil Gavaskar
12:47believes that
12:49after the first test match
12:51the gap of 10 days
12:53has broken the momentum.
12:55Do you agree with this?
12:57Sometimes it happens.
12:59Australia's domination in pink ball
13:01has been shown in Adelaide.
13:03Out of 12, only 1 test match was played.
13:05Out of 13, only 1 test match was played.
13:07Hazlewood has come back.
13:09Brisbane's pitch is always fast.
13:11But India should remember
13:13that in the last series
13:15they won a series deciding test match.
13:17If we remember that
13:19both teams are batting well
13:21and bowling well
13:23whoever wins the toss
13:25has a big advantage.
13:27The decision is made
13:29by looking at the pitch.
13:31The pictures look very green.
13:33Obviously, Brisbane's pitch is always fast.
13:35Do you think Akash Deep will get a chance?
13:37If he sees that the pitch is fast
13:39and the grass is not cheating
13:41the grass is really grass
13:43it happens often.
13:45He will decide
13:47and play a fast bowler.
13:49Thank you very much
13:51Mr. Shahid Harshmi.
13:53I hope you liked the program.
13:55Please allow me to leave now.
13:57Take care.
13:59Allah Hafiz.
