00:02 Welcome to another exciting episode of Surf Excel,
00:14 The Fourth Empire Show.
00:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:19 Quite an interesting day.
00:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:38 They went on scoring some runs or saving grace.
00:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:43 262 runs.
00:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:54 48.2, to be very precise.
00:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
00:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:02 So this was not quite an intelligent chase.
01:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:10 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
01:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

02:18 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:28 Yes.
02:28 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:30 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:34 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:35 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

02:45 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:51 Yes.
02:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
02:58 Yes.
02:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:02 Misha.
03:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:09 I have a blank paper today.
03:11 I have nothing to say.
03:12 So Misha--
03:13 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:14 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:16 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:17 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:18 What is it?
03:18 Related to the first match?
03:20 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:21 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:22 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:23 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:24 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:25 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:26 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:27 No, I think actually, [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:29 South Africa, 1 by 2, 29 runs.
03:32 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:33 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:34 So I think that's going to really be--
03:36 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:37 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:38 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:39 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:40 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:41 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:42 Misma.
03:43 Misma.
03:44 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:46 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:47 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:48 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:49 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:50 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:51 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:52 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:53 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:54 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:55 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:56 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:57 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:58 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
03:59 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:00 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:01 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:02 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:03 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:04 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:05 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:06 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:07 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:08 [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]
04:34 He missed the trick. What do you think, Amar?
04:36 I think England is coming into the last match.
04:39 And psychologically they have always been dominant on South Africa.
04:42 They lost in the last World Cup.
04:44 So big teams always give them tough time.
04:46 And during this World Cup, the momentum they have gained
04:50 from the last two to three matches, I have been very impressed.
04:53 Because, as much as the small team can play well,
04:56 they are carrying with the momentum from the last two to three matches.
05:00 In today's match, although they lost 4-5 players early,
05:04 but the way Saebrand and Van Beek...
05:08 I'll tell you. Engelbracht.
05:10 Engelbracht.
05:11 Engelbracht.
05:12 -Bracht. -Yes.
05:13 Saebrand...
05:15 -Logan Van Beek... -What?
05:17 -Logan. -Logan.
05:19 -Logan. -Van.
05:20 -And Beek. -Wow.
05:21 -It's a full tune. Check it out. -Wow.
05:23 -All the... Okay. -Logan Van Beek.
05:26 -Yes. -It's the same.
05:26 -It's the same. -It's the same.
05:28 Yes.
05:30 It was a difficult time.
05:31 We were thinking that we can hardly run up to 150.
05:35 But they scored a great score.
05:39 They put it on the board, 262.
05:41 -And they gave Shalanka a tough time. -Yes, absolutely.
05:44 Shalanka is not an easy team.
05:45 And they came in such a condition and played the way they did.
05:49 So, I think they played very well so far.
05:51 They played very well.
05:52 And I would like to talk a little about the work done by the tail-enders.
05:56 Yesterday's match was played in Pakistan.
05:59 All our tail-enders...
06:00 If we talk about their batting...
06:03 Because I love Hasan Ali.
06:05 And I love him a lot.
06:07 And he's bowling very well in this World Cup.
06:09 I saw his video a few days before the World Cup.
06:13 He was practicing batting.
06:16 And he was bowling well in the middle of the video.
06:19 If we can show that video on Twitter,
06:22 please do, Asif.
06:24 But when we practice so much,
06:25 we don't see any plan of our tail-enders in the match.
06:30 If we compare, Sumil,
06:32 their tail-enders, who are an emerging team,
06:37 and our team, who have a strong team,
06:40 why do our tail-enders become so quiet?
06:45 The word you used, "quiet",
06:47 -Yes. -actually, they become quiet.
06:49 The problem is game awareness.
06:52 If you talk about the Netherlands' batsmen,
06:54 or the lower middle order, or the tail-enders,
06:57 they tried to take the match as deep as possible.
07:02 You give yourself a chance.
07:05 We talked about this yesterday.
07:07 When you talked about Hasan Ali and Shaheen's batting,
07:10 we realized we can't win the match.
07:12 So, as a player, what does game awareness tell you?
07:17 You should drag the match as far as you can.
07:21 Because it's not a bilateral series.
07:24 It's a big tournament.
07:25 -You know you have to play five more matches. -It won't depend on the colour.
07:29 So, when you play as a player,
07:33 you don't get this information through bias.
07:35 You're a professional, you're representing such a big team,
07:39 so your mind should work.
07:41 If you become quiet,
07:43 -the results will be... -What did you say?
07:45 -Quiet. -Quiet.
07:46 -Is that a good thing? -Very good.
07:48 -Very good. -I said it.
07:50 -It's like a mark. -How many marks do you get?
07:51 -From the entertainer. -No.
07:54 I'm a look-see-man.
07:56 -I'm changing the seat. -I have a question from the city.
08:00 How many marks do you get?
08:01 -10/10. How many? -It's 0/0.
08:04 It's 0/0.
08:05 But it's simple.
08:07 I don't know how to teach you game awareness.
08:11 I said it's an individual's...
08:14 It's on you. Nobody teaches you.
08:17 What is game awareness?
08:18 You learn knowledge of the game by playing games.
08:22 You learn by playing.
08:24 What is experience?
08:25 You learn by playing what to do in different situations.
08:29 You have to win the first goal.
08:31 But if you feel you're not winning,
08:34 what's better for your team?
08:37 That is game awareness.
08:38 The two of them did it today.
08:41 The Dutch batters.
08:43 They know that the current one-day cricket
08:47 is not doing well.
08:51 So, they revise their targets and minimize them.
08:54 They try to give themselves a chance.
09:00 -And they did. -They paid back.
09:02 They put up a show. They fought well.
09:06 They chased the target in the 49th over.
09:08 We talked yesterday about Sri Lanka having an upper hand.
09:13 But the Netherlands will give them a tough time.
09:15 -And they did. -They gave it.
09:17 So, this is game awareness that we're lacking.
09:20 You asked what went wrong with the Netherlands.
09:23 I think they made a wrong call.
09:25 When they won the toss,
09:27 there was moisture on the pitch.
09:29 The commentator was talking about it.
09:31 The ball was early on swing.
09:34 I think they decided to bat after winning the toss.
09:38 That was a mistake.
09:40 On the seeming pitch...
09:42 -They have good bowling. -They bowl with discipline.
09:46 They are seasoned bowlers from the county.
09:49 -They play county cricket. -They know how to bowl on the seeming pitch.
09:53 Sorry, I'm interrupting.
09:54 I know that their domestic experience
09:59 is better than all the players from the Pakistani team.
10:03 -Is that true? -They play county cricket.
10:06 -They play at home. -Some play in South Africa.
10:09 -Some play in New Zealand. -They play mostly in county cricket.
10:12 In England.
10:14 That's why their bowlers are effective wherever they get a seam.
10:18 You know, in red ball,
10:21 the ball swings and you have to bowl a channel.
10:24 That's why they've been doing well.
10:26 They know how to hit a consistent area.
10:29 If they had won the toss and bowled,
10:31 Sri Lanka would have had the same situation.
10:33 -They could have won five or six early wickets. -They did.
10:35 But I don't know what was in their mind
10:38 when they took the decision.
10:39 Somehow, it was a trick.
10:41 Misha, what do you want to say?
10:42 I just wanted to add that they play county cricket.
10:45 They have an edge because they look like a new team
10:48 but they've also played in the IPL.
10:49 Most of the players have played in the IPL.
10:51 They know their conditions from the pitches.
10:54 That's why they've been performing well on these pitches.
10:56 They play county cricket, but we play bounty cricket.
10:58 -What are we doing? -Basically, in this...
11:00 -Misha... -Nice.
11:02 Misha B. C. Sohail is right.
11:03 They play in the counties.
11:05 Another advantage is that many of the players are not local.
11:08 In South Africa, there are three players playing in this.
11:12 There's Ackerman, Sebrand,
11:16 and Vanderma.
11:18 -He's from South Africa. -Vanderma has played in South Africa.
11:21 -He's from South Africa. -All three of them have played.
11:22 -All three of them have played. -All three of them have played.
11:24 -Good. Focus on it. -And they can play
11:27 in their call-back system.
11:29 And the counties are registered.
11:31 Obviously, they're used to playing in the counties
11:34 and they play well.
11:37 So, that's their advantage.
11:38 The Netherlands got a lot of advantages today.
11:40 I think they'll take a lot from this World Cup.
11:44 They've learnt a lot of things here.
11:47 And they've actually put up a show.
11:48 And quite an interesting one also.
11:50 The credit definitely goes to the bowlers of Sri Lanka.
11:53 -If we... Faizan, because... -Thank you.
11:56 -You obviously follow cricket a lot. -Yes.
11:58 The way Sri Lanka bowled today,
12:01 do you think they can improve in the future?
12:04 -Because it's obvious. -I really doubt it.
12:07 Because they couldn't capitalize on the wickets they took in the beginning.
12:10 And the lower-down players have run on them.
12:13 -The 7th and 8th number. -The 7th and 8th number players.
12:15 Which is very alarming for them.
12:17 -Yes. -They consider their bowling very well.
12:19 -Especially their spinners. -Mystery spinners.
12:20 But they got a run and I think it's a little difficult for Sri Lanka.
12:24 -It's a little difficult for Sri Lanka. -Yes.
12:25 Okay, let's address the elephant in the room, which is England.
12:30 Let's talk about England.
12:32 What's going on? I think there should be a bangla on this.
12:35 -Because this... -Bangla for England.
12:37 Look, England has learnt a lot from us.
12:45 -Yes. -They have taken a lot from us.
12:47 -They have taken our boys too. -They have taken our boys too.
12:50 Not only Kohinoor,
12:52 they have taken some of our Kothaiyans too.
12:55 Sir, I will give you the internal report.
12:56 -Because I am from the UK. -Oh, wow.
12:59 -UK, Umerport. -Oh, okay.
13:01 -Yes, tell us. -Guys.
13:03 Sir, the problem with England is that they have taken South Africa.
13:07 South Africa is taking it, but the neighbours have changed it.
13:09 -Okay. -Because Holland did it to them.
13:11 -Okay. -They were their neighbours.
13:13 They said, "We can't do anything to Holland.
13:14 We will do something to England."
13:16 -And today, they have done it. -And what an amazing performance.
13:18 AB de Villiers had already told us
13:21 that 400 on the cards is definitely visible.
13:23 And they understood it.
13:25 But one trick, like we talked about the Netherlands,
13:28 most of the captains are missing the pitch.
13:31 I don't understand this.
13:33 What do you think, in this match,
13:34 Sohail, do you think there was a problem with the batting earlier?
13:39 I think England's mindset was that
13:43 because their bowling is weak,
13:47 although their batting is not in form yet,
13:50 but they rely more on their batting.
13:51 So I think they thought that
13:54 let's suppose South Africa does a 330-340,
13:56 which is a pattern,
13:58 we have enough power in our batting lineup.
14:00 -That we can do it. -To chase it down.
14:01 But they missed the trick.
14:03 You can see that in the subcontinent,
14:06 here and in Pakistan,
14:08 there is a slight flickering in the evening.
14:11 Under the lights, the ball swings.
14:13 -Absolutely. -In the daytime,
14:15 the ball doesn't swing.
14:16 In the first few hours, the ball may swing a little,
14:19 but after that, it becomes very easy for the batters
14:22 to bat in the daylight.
14:24 But as soon as the lights are on,
14:26 and it's time for Maghrib, and the second inning starts,
14:28 you can see that
14:30 the ball swings due to the flickering.
14:34 You saw that in the South African bowling lineup.
14:37 When they were bowling,
14:38 it looked like a bowling pitch,
14:41 but South Africa was batting, so it looked totally different.
14:44 So I think, as you said,
14:46 most of the captains are missing the trick.
14:49 I don't think they are reading the pitch,
14:53 or making mistakes in the decision-making.
14:56 Because you can't go with a set pattern.
15:00 You have to make a decision
15:02 based on the given day, the ground, and the pitch,
15:08 whether you want to bat or bowl first.
15:10 And South Africans, they are too good batting first,
15:13 but batting second, we saw that they lost against the Netherlands
15:16 while chasing.
15:17 So I think they should have kept these things in mind.
15:21 But England looks like they have lost it totally.
15:24 And whenever England comes under pressure,
15:28 they never make a comeback.
15:29 And I think it will be very difficult for them.
15:31 Omar, we have blamed Haris Rauf a lot throughout the World Cup.
15:36 We have had four outings.
15:38 He was very expensive and we have beaten him up a lot.
15:41 But when this wood came to us in Pakistan,
15:45 he made us run around and created a mess.
15:48 Today, he took out all the wood.
15:51 So Haris and the share pace, definitely,
15:55 but somehow not working at all.
15:57 So why are we blaming ourselves?
15:59 He was a world-class bowler.
16:00 The team that was successful before the World Cup,
16:05 if you look at the East World Cup,
16:07 I think India and South Africa are two teams
16:10 that are well-prepared,
16:12 and have variations based on the conditions.
16:16 They have benchers at every position
16:19 who can replace them.
16:21 If we talk about their bowling or batting,
16:23 today, the captain of South Africa wasn't playing.
16:26 - Think about it. - Instead, a new player came.
16:28 He is playing the first World Cup match.
16:30 He bowled 85.
16:32 And 85 is not like he bowled 100 balls.
16:34 He bowled 75 balls.
16:36 He didn't let us feel that he is playing the first World Cup match.
16:39 It means that they are well-prepared.
16:41 - They know the conditions. - Just like Williams is not playing in New Zealand,
16:44 whoever plays for them, they go for centuries.
16:47 - Secondly, you mentioned something earlier. - Thank you.
16:50 You mentioned about reading the conditions.
16:53 Who is reading it well?
16:54 In the last match, South Africa had a spin trick.
16:59 - They made the coach sit down and let Shamsi bowl. - He didn't let him sit.
17:03 There was a bounce on the pitch.
17:05 He was carrying the ball.
17:07 He knew that if he had to bowl in the evening,
17:10 the ball would swing in the evening and fly.
17:13 So, he made Shamsi sit down.
17:15 It means that they are well-prepared.
17:17 They have players in every position.
17:19 - Variety... - How many players did they take?
17:21 - 15. - Why do we feel so less?
17:24 - And Utsa... - We have more than 20.
17:25 - Look at this. - After one diamond, another one.
17:28 Before the World Cup, you rotated the players for every position.
17:32 If you rotate players for every position, you get 22.
17:35 I think it's called well-equipped.
17:38 They have players available for every slot.
17:42 And their backup is also ready to play.
17:45 So, it's difficult for them to select.
17:47 It's difficult for us too, but it's difficult for them.
17:49 - For us... - It's difficult for them.
17:51 - It's difficult for us too. - Look at this.
17:53 - They are looking for a chance. - I think...
17:56 - Their best point is their batting. - Exactly.
18:00 - It's very informative. - South Africa too.
18:01 South Africa's batting.
18:02 - And the way they are playing... - Clash and go.
18:07 - I think they should keep it. - Oh, my God.
18:09 In the last 6-8 months, I haven't seen a more destructive middle order batsman
18:17 than him. When he hits on one side, he can hit all four sides.
18:22 - 360. - So, that is a very plus point.
18:25 He is equally good against spinners and fast bowlers.
18:29 And you should check, not only Faizan,
18:31 but River is also sweeping.
18:34 And he is hitting the front.
18:36 So, he doesn't get a glimpse of the gluzener.
18:39 Clash and go are playing well, but Yenson is here.
18:42 - He has run 75 runs on 42 balls. - Yes.
18:45 So, we were talking about tail-enders batting.
18:47 And he has scored 90 on England's batting too.
18:50 - Exactly. - He has hit 5 sixes, but Mark Wood has missed.
18:53 - Yes. - So, Hassan Ali, take a hint.
18:55 - And... - It's very easy.
18:57 Hassan, hitting a six is so difficult.
18:59 Lower the handle, press the button and you will hit it.
19:01 - See, this... - Just focus.
19:03 This is a very difficult problem.
19:04 I want to ask you a question.
19:06 I always want to ask you this.
19:08 You have done a lot of research on this.
19:10 We have taken 15 players.
19:12 But what do you think?
19:13 If I tell you about three or four players,
19:15 what do you think their replacement is in the domestic circle?
19:19 The players we should induct with us.
19:22 Who would they be?
19:23 I am not talking about openers for a change.
19:25 - Let's talk about middle-orders. - Middle-orders.
19:27 If we talk about Iftikhar,
19:29 who happens to be one of the best all-rounders
19:31 that we have in the country.
19:32 At least, that's what everybody is saying.
19:34 If he didn't play,
19:35 who is his replacement in the domestic circle?
19:39 - What do you think? - See, Iftikhar...
19:40 First, I would like to add that Iftikhar is...
19:43 - His position is very tricky. - Don't misunderstand.
19:47 - No, actually. - Okay.
19:48 - It's a tricky place. - Okay.
19:50 His number...
19:52 You fluctuate it a lot.
19:53 His performance has been better
19:55 when he comes on the five.
19:57 We have seen him in the first matches.
19:59 If you bring him down
20:01 and if he doesn't contain the pressure,
20:02 even with the batter,
20:04 we saw him opening up Harris,
20:06 then bringing him down and then up.
20:08 The more you fluctuate his positions,
20:10 the longer he takes to adjust.
20:12 Good point.
20:13 Umar, why do we fluctuate so much?
20:15 What do you think?
20:17 See, first, I...
20:20 I will answer the question you asked.
20:22 - Which one? - Iftikhar's...
20:25 Whether we have a better middle-order batsman in Pakistan.
20:28 - Oh, that question. - Yes, I will come to that later.
20:32 When you don't follow the rotation policy,
20:34 when you don't think long-term,
20:36 you will face a problem
20:38 that you don't have a better middle-order batsman
20:41 who can replace Iftikhar.
20:43 If a guy comes in the middle,
20:44 either you forget about his performance on the PSL,
20:48 or if you want to respect the performance of a domestic player,
20:51 then you select him.
20:53 Tayyab Tahir, a guy came in the middle,
20:54 he was fed...
20:56 Yeah!
20:57 Yes.
21:00 Tayyab Tahir is a guy who performed well in domestic and wide ball.
21:04 He played well in PSL.
21:05 He also scored a century against India.
21:08 - Which... - Was it in Asia?
21:10 - Emerging. - Emerging.
21:11 - He won the match single-handedly. - He won the match.
21:14 When you don't give a guy a chance,
21:17 how can you say that you don't have a player?
21:22 You will become a player only if you give him an opportunity.
21:24 - Yes. - You are right.
21:26 Tell me something.
21:27 - Sahebzada Farhan is also a player. - Yes, sir.
21:30 - Tayyab Tahir is also a player. - Kamran Ghulam.
21:32 Kamran Ghulam is also a player.
21:34 Are they not good enough?
21:36 Well, I think the problem is
21:39 that Kamran Ghulam and Farhan are both opening slot batters.
21:44 - They are not middle order. - Why are they all openers?
21:46 That's the problem.
21:47 We are not getting middle order and low middle order batsmen.
21:52 We tried a few.
21:53 We tried Hushnil Shah.
21:54 We tried Asif Ali.
21:57 We tried Suhaib Maqsood even.
21:59 But no one was able to click.
22:02 We can't say that we didn't give chances.
22:05 We gave chances,
22:06 but no one was able to avail those chances.
22:09 No one was able to cement their place.
22:11 Because of that, we are only seeing pride today.
22:15 And we need to sort it out.
22:17 And instead of all-rounders,
22:20 we saw Yansen's innings today.
22:22 I think South Africa will get a chance to play Lance Kluzner in the future.
22:29 The way he bowls with the new ball,
22:31 he swings it both ways,
22:32 and the way he hits in low and middle order...
22:35 - Clean hitting. - Yes, clean hitting.
22:37 We are missing an all-rounder like him.
22:40 - We had Anwar Ali. - Anwar Ali was very good.
22:44 He could have been utilized.
22:47 - Why didn't he? - When he got chances,
22:50 - he couldn't deliver. - He couldn't.
22:54 He won a few matches in South Africa,
22:57 and then he won a match against Sri Lanka.
23:00 - But he didn't get consistent chances. - What about Amir Jamal?
23:04 I think if you look at it now,
23:07 Amir Jamal is the one who can bank.
23:09 - They should play domestically. - We can bank.
23:12 - They can come to the team. - We should invest in him.
23:16 Amir Jamal is the one we can make.
23:19 Yet, he's not ready.
23:20 I won't say he's ready right away.
23:22 But if you invest, you'll get the fruit.
23:24 So I think, to sum it up,
23:26 I think, because my personal understanding is
23:29 that the domestic cricket
23:31 is being watched by everyone except the PCB.
23:35 So I think I would suggest them to watch it a little.
23:38 Because I keep hearing this statement
23:40 from all these players who are playing in this XI,
23:42 and this combination is going on for a long time.
23:44 We all love them, definitely.
23:46 But one thing is that
23:48 who else is there?
23:50 - Imad Wasim. - See, there are lots of names.
23:53 But what I'm saying is that
23:55 this statement that who else is there
23:58 is a little off statement.
24:00 - Yes. - So we should not say that
24:01 because these players are trying to perform every day.
24:04 There are lots of players.
24:06 But we're only focusing on the rotation of the openers.
24:10 We'll take a short break.
24:11 When we come back from the break,
24:13 we'll talk a little more about that match
24:16 which is between Afghanistan and Pakistan.
24:19 That is on Monday.
24:20 And I am literally scared.
24:23 I don't know what will happen in that match.
24:24 I don't know if I should invite them or not.
24:26 - So I... - You should be.
24:28 You want to ask me.
24:29 So don't go anywhere.
24:30 Surf Excel presents The 4th Empire Show.
24:32 We'll be right back.
24:33 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back.
24:36 Surf Excel presents The 4th Empire Show.
24:38 We want to show you something
24:39 because before the break,
24:40 we were talking about our tailhanders' performance
24:43 which is very important.
24:44 So this is what our tailhanders are doing.
24:48 And they are doing a fabulous job.
24:50 If you can middle it so well,
24:51 how come you don't do it when it is required?
24:55 When the match is going on,
24:56 then this performance is very important.
24:59 I think all our players must be thinking
25:03 what they are doing wrong.
25:05 And I think a lot of things need to be rectified.
25:07 This is not happening because we want to criticize a lot.
25:11 We want to criticize a lot.
25:13 This is why it's happening.
25:14 So let's talk about the points table.
25:19 Let's talk about that too.
25:20 Yes, show us.
25:20 Misha, can you please enlighten us?
25:22 What's happening?
25:23 Sure.
25:24 Of course, as you can see, New Zealand is at the top
25:26 because they won four out of four.
25:28 But today's match,
25:29 in which South Africa has won with a huge margin,
25:32 which is 229 runs,
25:34 if you look at their net run rate,
25:36 - it's the best run rate. - It's the best run rate.
25:38 It is.
25:39 And this has made the second phase of the tournament
25:43 - completely open. - Okay.
25:44 Because for the other teams,
25:46 a lot of ifs and buts have been revealed,
25:49 especially for the Pakistanis.
25:51 For us, it's basically butt squares.
25:53 There are a lot of them.
25:54 There are a lot of ifs too.
25:56 I think the chances of the top three teams are very high.
26:00 - They are all Pakeh. - They are all Pakeh.
26:01 The fourth spot will be high,
26:02 which will be dominated by the other three,
26:04 Australia, Pakistan, England and Sri Lanka.
26:07 Are you saying England is out of the run already?
26:09 Look, the way they are playing, it looks very difficult.
26:13 Because this is what happened with them in 2015.
26:16 When they started losing,
26:17 they didn't have the ability to...
26:19 When they are under pressure...
26:20 - They don't deliver somehow. - Exactly.
26:22 - They are playing under pressure. - They don't deliver.
26:25 That's their history.
26:26 It's cricket. Anything can happen.
26:28 They are a good enough team.
26:29 But right now, the way they are playing,
26:31 it looks very difficult.
26:32 Now, Australia, Pakistan and then Sri Lanka,
26:36 could surprise a few teams.
26:38 But mainly, I think Australia and Pakistan are the ones
26:40 who are fighting.
26:41 Because the top teams are playing too good.
26:44 And if you look at their numbers...
26:46 If we get two good wins,
26:48 from the point of view of the run rate,
26:49 I think we can somehow
26:52 - give Australia a tough time. - It depends on the results.
26:55 - God willing, we'll give them. - God willing.
26:57 Like we gave England yesterday,
26:59 and it was accepted, we'll keep giving them.
27:01 The Australian team will lose the final match.
27:03 - Why? - Because in the 2011 World Cup,
27:05 they lost six players' stomachs after eating Indian food.
27:08 - Wow. - Yes.
27:09 - Wow, Ayaz. - Ayaz, you're so smart.
27:11 They were half-way through the diary.
27:13 - Ayaz, you brought the stats. - Tell us, Umar.
27:15 - They were so far away. - Literally.
27:18 - From India... - Amazing.
27:19 - Umar told me. - Umar told you?
27:22 Umar?
27:23 I don't agree with this at all.
27:25 You...
27:27 - Don't be so pessimistic. - You...
27:29 You're an entertainer, but you're not a reporter.
27:34 - He's disclosed his identity. - But...
27:36 I remembered from the diary that Pakistan has a match on Monday.
27:38 - Yes. - Yes.
27:40 - I don't know about it. - Umar.
27:42 How scared should we be?
27:44 Tell us the truth. You've worked with the Afghanistan team.
27:47 Yes.
27:48 Look, there's no doubt that the spinners are the main attacker.
27:52 And the venue we play at
27:56 depends on the pitch you're playing at.
27:58 Because there were two matches.
28:00 One was a turning pitch.
28:02 India against Australia.
28:05 And the second was a batting track.
28:07 So, it depends on the match we play the day after.
28:11 But, yes...
28:13 Afghanistan is mainly relying on Mujeeb and Rashid.
28:17 But I don't think we'll have a problem.
28:20 Because we've played with Mujeeb many times.
28:22 - And Rashid. - Iftikhar too.
28:24 We've played with Rashid too.
28:26 But I think if we tackle Rashid well...
28:31 - Don't come that day. - What?
28:34 Don't come that day. Don't come.
28:36 No, no. There won't be any problem.
28:38 - We'll win. - Okay.
28:40 Anyway, we'll have our own ID cards
28:43 - of the four or six players. - Yes.
28:46 So, let's try to adjust.
28:48 But, I think on a very serious note, this is a very important match.
28:51 And Afghanistan has been doing very well.
28:53 They've defeated a very big team that day.
28:57 So, I think their morale right now
28:59 will be much higher than the overall team.
29:01 Because we've lost the last two matches,
29:04 our momentum is on the downside right now.
29:07 So, I really wish that day was easy and we won against them by a large margin.
29:11 Not that we won a very close match.
29:12 Because we've won very close matches against Afghanistan.
29:16 So, the pressure is building up all the time.
29:19 Both teams will be under pressure.
29:21 The pressure of expectation will be on Afghanistan
29:24 because they've won against a big team in the last match.
29:27 And because we've lost two matches,
29:31 the pressure will be on both teams.
29:33 And the history of Pakistan-Afghanistan matches
29:37 in the last two to three years,
29:38 I guess, the pressure will be on both teams.
29:42 Again, as Gulli said, it all depends on the wicket.
29:45 - The pitch... - It will depend on the toss as well.
29:47 If the pitch is on the spin track, then it depends on the toss.
29:50 Because the two spinners I see as a threat are Nabi and Nabi.
29:54 - He bowled well. - Nabi as well.
29:55 And then, there's only one batsman in their batting,
29:57 - Rahmanullah Gurbaz. - Gurbaz.
29:59 If he scores, he scores a long and healthy strike.
30:04 - He does it quickly. - He does it quickly.
30:06 But there's not much depth in their batting.
30:08 He's completely out of form.
30:09 No one else has done so many runs.
30:11 The new guy who's in the wicket-keeper's bat
30:14 has scored a 50.
30:15 Ikram has scored a 50.
30:17 But the real threat is Rahmanullah Gurbaz.
30:20 If you out him, they might finish 200 or 220 even.
30:25 But these three or four are the best bowlers and batsmen
30:29 who can give us a tough time.
30:31 We have best wishes for the Pakistan team
30:33 for the Monday fixture. I hope we win.
30:36 We're moving to our three teams.
30:39 Let's see who's the winner today.
30:41 The scoreboard so far is as follows.
30:43 Cricket experts have played seven matches with us.
30:45 Three have won, one is losing.
30:47 Power Girls have played seven matches.
30:48 No one has won. Five are losing.
30:50 And two are tie. They have two points.
30:52 And the containers have won one out of seven.
30:54 Three are losing, three are tie.
30:56 And they have five points.
30:57 We're going to play single or double.
30:59 Let's see what's going to happen today.
31:01 We'll ask the experts questions.
31:03 And the first question will be ours.
31:05 - Are you all ready? - Yes.
31:06 Let's start. Let's see what our first question is.
31:09 It's in single or double. And the first question is...
31:12 Which player has made the fastest century of the One Day World Cup?
31:16 Kevin O'Brien A, Aidan Markham B, or C, Glenn Maxwell?
31:22 Yes, think, think, think. Do you know?
31:25 No? Number two?
31:27 - Aidan Markham? - The one we just made.
31:28 - The one we just made? - Yes.
31:29 This is a recent question.
31:31 - He's asking us. - How much was it?
31:33 - How much was it? Misha, tell us. - 106.
31:35 106. How many balls?
31:36 - 46. - 46 balls? Okay.
31:39 - Let's see if we have the answer. - 48.
31:42 Aidan Markham, fastest century.
31:44 Fastest century of the World Cup.
31:46 And the correct answer is...
31:47 Absolutely correct answer.
31:48 49 balls.
31:51 - Aidan Markham made it. - He did it.
31:53 And it was a fantastic century.
31:55 We're going to the second question,
31:57 the first question we'll ask the Power Girls.
31:58 And the question is in single or double.
32:01 Tell us the name of the captain
32:02 who led Australia to win the World Cup twice.
32:05 I think this is very easy.
32:07 - A, Ricky Ponting. - Ponting.
32:08 - B, Steve Pauw. - Ponting.
32:09 Or C, Alan Border.
32:10 - What are you saying? - Ponting.
32:11 Okay, fine.
32:12 Let's lock it.
32:13 - And their answer is... - One minute.
32:16 - Look at this. - It's the correct answer.
32:18 - It's the correct answer. - Okay, okay.
32:19 Mishma was like, "Hey, man."
32:21 - This is wrong. - No.
32:22 - This was confused. - Mishma, what's your answer?
32:24 - Mishma said Ricky Martin. - No.
32:26 This was confused.
32:30 We're going to ask our entertainers.
32:31 And the first question for them is...
32:33 This.
32:34 In this One Day World Cup,
32:35 tell us the name of the batsman who has scored the most runs.
32:38 A, Rohit Sharma.
32:40 B, Mohd Rizwan.
32:41 Or C, Samara Vikrama.
32:44 - Mohd Rizwan. - Mohd Rizwan.
32:46 - Yes. - The one who has scored the most runs.
32:47 - Yes, sir. - Are you sure?
32:48 - Yes, sir. - Final answer.
32:49 - Locked it. - Locked it.
32:50 So, let's see what the answer is.
32:53 And the correct answer is...
32:54 Mohd Rizwan.
32:56 The funny thing is that our experts are surprised.
32:59 - No, no. - When did this happen?
33:01 - In the last match. - 294.
33:02 - Yes. - 294.
33:03 - He went up in the last match. - He's the second best.
33:06 Before the last match, Rohit Sharma was the best.
33:09 - But Mohd Rizwan... - Good, man.
33:11 ...is having a great run.
33:12 I hope that he keeps improving in winning.
33:15 - Inshallah. - Inshallah.
33:16 It's our prayer.
33:17 We're going to ask you the second question.
33:18 Experts, in one-day matches,
33:20 who does the most head-tricks?
33:22 Tell us the name of the bowler.
33:24 A. Lasith Malinga.
33:25 B. Chamindawas.
33:26 C. Saklein Mushtaq.
33:28 There's no name of Wasim Akram in this?
33:30 - Not many? Okay. - No, it's not the World Cup.
33:33 - No, it's not the World Cup. - It's in one-day matches.
33:36 - It's in one-day matches. - Yes.
33:39 Umar Gul and Sohail Tanvir.
33:41 - It's not for both of them. - A.
33:44 - Yes. - A.
33:45 A. It's for sure.
33:47 And they said, Lasith Malinga.
33:49 Let's see if we have the right answer.
33:51 And...
33:52 The right answer!
33:53 - Lasith Malinga. - He's ready.
33:56 Lasith Malinga has done the head-trick three times.
33:58 The rest of them have done it twice.
34:02 Chamindawas, one of my favourite bowlers.
34:04 - Oh, yes. - And he was an amazing bowler.
34:06 - Not pace, but he was very brave. - Control.
34:09 - Control. - Variation.
34:10 We're going to ask the second question.
34:11 We're going to ask our Power Girls.
34:13 - In 1996, in Lahore... - We're going to ask the same question.
34:15 In the World Cup final, which team did Sri Lanka defeat
34:19 and claim the title?
34:20 - We're going to ask. - A. India.
34:21 - Miss Ma, you won't tell us. - B. Australia.
34:23 Or C. Western.
34:24 - It's very easy. - Miss Ma says she wasn't born yet.
34:26 - I don't know. - Miss Ma, answer this, please.
34:28 - No, no. Misha is here. - The question before that...
34:31 - T. - See? I was sure
34:33 - that she'd say something like this. - Ask her, please.
34:35 - Before that... - Australia.
34:37 She's a Gen Z basically.
34:38 - She's just born. - She's a do-it-yourself.
34:40 - What should we do? - What are you saying?
34:42 Why are you bowing towards Umar Gul?
34:44 - Answer it yourself. - I was bowing towards you.
34:47 - I was bowing towards you. - No.
34:48 - If I say... - No, not at all.
34:49 - You can take Umar's paper from there. - I told you.
34:51 Think about it, Misha. I'll change the place of the blank you're writing.
34:55 - Here, take this. - What are you writing?
34:56 - Nothing. - What is it?
34:57 - You wrote a number. What is this? - Nothing.
35:00 - That's strange. - Australia.
35:02 - I told you it's Australia. - Australia.
35:03 - She's saying Australia. - Yes.
35:05 - Let's see if this is the right answer. - Australia.
35:07 - And... - Number...
35:08 - And... - Correct.
35:09 Correct answer!
35:10 - Ma... - Ma, Taylor Captain.
35:13 - Girls, was your last question right? - Yes, it was.
35:16 - It was right. - It's 2-2.
35:17 - All the questions were right. - 2-2. Very good.
35:20 Let's see what the entertainers can do.
35:23 - The question is... - Here.
35:25 In 1900, in Paris...
35:26 - This is something... - Tell us something.
35:30 - What kind of a question is this? - This is with these people...
35:33 We'll do it. Sit down.
35:35 - This is a complete mess. - This goes with these people.
35:37 - Umar is laughing. - Please.
35:39 - This question... - Sit down.
35:41 - Because it's in the syllabus. - Yes, sir. I will do it.
35:44 - In 1900, in the Olympics in Paris... - I'll do it.
35:47 - Two cricket teams took part. - One was India.
35:50 - Tell us the name of the other team. - Australia.
35:53 - Canada or France? - In 1990, it was neither Canada nor France.
35:56 - It was Australia. - Tony Cucker will save me.
35:59 - What happened, Tony Cucker? - Australia.
36:01 - Is Australia for sure? - Yes.
36:02 - If... - In the Olympics,
36:04 cricket was played only once.
36:06 - That was in 1900. - Yes.
36:07 - Now in 2028... - Yes.
36:09 - It was played in Los Angeles. - Yes.
36:12 After 128 years.
36:13 It's late, but it's right.
36:15 Now we have to see what happens.
36:17 - Their answer is Australia. - Yes.
36:19 Let's see if we have the answer or not.
36:22 - And... - And...
36:23 - Wrong answer. - Where did the French team come from?
36:26 - It was in Paris. - No.
36:28 - It was in Paris. - No.
36:29 - Was it played by two teams? - In the French team...
36:31 - There were 11 British nationals. - I said...
36:35 - He's cheating. - It was played...
36:37 - It was played in 1900. - It's a different story.
36:39 - What? - It was played in 1900.
36:40 What are you saying?
36:42 - I have a feeling... - Exactly.
36:44 - I have a feeling... - It was played in Paris.
36:45 - It was played in France. - It was played in Paris.
36:47 - If it was played in Paris, it must be the French team. - You're right.
36:49 - This... - Where did the French team go after that?
36:52 The Prada you asked for...
36:54 - I thought it was France. - It was a bit...
36:58 - It would have been good if we had asked for information. - No.
37:01 - But the question we were asked... - Very good.
37:03 - I know. - Very good.
37:05 - You've made a good change. - Yes.
37:07 - There was an answer in the question. - Yes.
37:10 - It's taught to kids in childhood to get half of the answer out of the question. - Exactly.
37:14 We're going to ask the next question.
37:16 - And the next question is... - Yes, tell us.
37:20 In which year was LBW introduced?
37:22 - A, 1974. - This is a different story.
37:24 B, 1874.
37:26 Or C, 1774.
37:29 - So, 74 is a common factor. - It's too far.
37:30 Let's see if it's true.
37:32 - We've given you a 100 years margin. - 74.
37:35 - 18... - So, in the mean...
37:37 - 1974. - Misbah must know this.
37:39 - Misbah. - A.
37:40 - Misbah, tell us. - A.
37:43 - Misbah said A. - B.
37:44 - B, that is 1874. - Yes.
37:46 Do you know why this rule was invented?
37:49 - No. - Because batsmen didn't get out.
37:50 Because batsmen used to stand with their feet in front of the wicket.
37:54 And after that, no matter how much you hit, you couldn't get out.
37:58 - Why not? - Let's see if this is the right answer.
38:02 She said 1874.
38:04 1874.
38:06 - And it's wrong. - Oh!
38:08 - C, I was right. - Oh, wow.
38:10 - I was just guessing. - Because Sohail Tanvir is a millennial,
38:14 it's possible.
38:15 The funny thing is, if the girls give the right answer,
38:20 - the boys will win. - Girls, you have a chance today.
38:22 - God forbid. - You have a chance today.
38:24 - Today. - Today, LV's clothes will be useful.
38:27 - I'm disappointed. - Let's see what happens.
38:29 The question is, Malcolm Marshall,
38:32 - the famous fast bowler... - I swear, the questions they're asking...
38:35 From which country was he from?
38:36 Wait, they'll go somewhere else. They'll go to Sunita Marshall.
38:40 Girls, Malcolm Marshall,
38:43 - the famous fast bowler... - I don't know.
38:45 - From which country was he from? - Wait, let me think.
38:48 - I'll write it down. Bisha doesn't know. - No, I know.
38:52 - I wrote it. - And Misbah...
