00:00 Asif sir, first of all, let's talk about your golden memories from the Australia tour.
00:07 In 1977, you won the match you won in Sydney.
00:11 And then in 1979, your performance in the Melbourne Test played a very important role in winning.
00:18 I don't know what happened after that. We got our last win in 1995.
00:24 So what's wrong? Why are we playing so badly in Australia?
00:28 Najeeb, I think it's a bit unfair to say that we are playing badly.
00:31 As I've always been saying, if your team loses, first of all, we have to give to the other team, who is defeating you.
00:39 And obviously, they have home grounds, so they have an advantage.
00:44 If they come to you, if they come to the subcontinent, they lose here.
00:49 So conditions obviously play a major role.
00:52 But having said that, I don't think the reason is that we are playing badly.
00:57 Nowadays, boys don't get that much time to adapt.
01:01 They travel, they reach within a short period of a month or three weeks.
01:06 We play three test matches, three one-days, three T20s, things like that.
01:12 But to be honest, I think at the moment our team is going from that pace,
01:19 where recently we had these big changes in the team.
01:26 The captain has been changed, I think the coaches have changed, and a lot of changes have been made.
01:33 We have to see how this new setup settles down.
01:37 It's a very tough situation where they are going.
01:40 And first, obviously, I think what you said in the intro,
01:44 it was, I don't know if it still is or not, considered the fastest wicket in the world.
01:49 It used to be. Bouncy and fastest.
01:52 We have bowling, fast bowling, so obviously their batsmen, if I'm not mistaken,
01:59 I think Usman Khadija was mentioning something about China,
02:04 he's not going to be easy to deal with.
02:07 So all those things, how they put together all these things as a team, that matters most.
02:13 The responsibility of the coach and team manager is the most important.
02:22 It's the captain who has to bring the team together, who has to get the best out of the team, out of the players.
02:28 So, inshallah, it's not necessary that we go and win the series.
02:34 Asif sahib, you've talked about adapting to the conditions.
02:38 India has won the last two series there.
02:41 And in the last series, they won the last match against their B-C team.
02:45 So we're not able to produce that result.
02:48 I understand that that team is playing very well, we can't adapt there, but India is also playing there.
02:55 Correct. So, it's a very simple answer.
02:59 Naseeb, you can answer it yourself. You're absolutely right.
03:01 Because India is a better team. Why can't we accept that?
03:05 True.
03:06 Why is it that we always compare India and say, "If they do it, why can't we do it?"
03:12 They are a better team. India didn't win the World Cup.
03:16 But look at the statistics. India won 10 matches in that World Cup.
03:20 That's true.
03:21 And in everything, highest number of runs by individual, by the team, by number of wickets taken, by number of boundaries hit, sixes hit, I don't know what all.
03:31 All the individual performances, look at the Indian players. So obviously they are a better team.
03:37 Australia, I think that was the beginning of the Indian team's tour.
03:45 That certain players got injured and the new crop came in.
03:49 And I think that was the turning point.
03:52 Where the Indian team suddenly started performing well.
03:55 Exceptionally well, in fact.
03:57 So I think give our team some time, give our team some, you know, instead of looking or trying to see what's going wrong, let's hope that they perform well.
04:08 And then we can discuss their performances after that.
04:11 Okay. Thank you very much, Asif Iqbal.
