00:00 We never used to hear that before.

00:01 Now, there's a trend.

00:03 Every other player says, "I want to play on this number.

00:06 I want to play on this number. I'm not happy here.

00:08 I'm not happy there."

00:09 The runs are easy up there. The runs are difficult down there.

00:12 Babar is also saying that he was third, but he wasn't satisfied.

00:17 Look, before this statement,

00:19 - do you remember Rizwan said this? - Yes, exactly.

00:21 That he was also approached for third place.

00:23 I said no.

00:24 And Babar asked for it.

00:28 Babar said that being a Pakistani,

00:30 the situation was such at that time.

00:34 The director approached him to play on number three.

00:37 That's why he came third.

00:39 He performed.

00:40 Not this.

00:41 In New Zealand, I think he did 250.

00:44 I think number three is perfect for him.

00:46 Yes, but look,

00:48 the opener in T20 is better.

00:54 And he's performing.

00:55 How can he come third?

00:57 If, for example,

01:00 if both the openers are out on six overs,

01:02 then there's no point in playing on number three.

01:04 - But... - Babar's style of playing

01:08 suits the openers.

01:11 Because it's a timer.

01:13 But when we used to come to these discussions at the World Cup,

01:16 many people used to say this.

01:18 - You used to say... - 50 overs at the World Cup?

01:20 - No, I'm talking about T20. - Look...

01:22 But you used to say that there could be a better choice

01:25 for the opening here, who play fast.

01:27 Now, when Saim came,

01:28 or some other opener,

01:31 Usman is no longer in our country,

01:33 people changed their minds,

01:35 and both of them played better.

01:37 If you look at Babar's last strike rate,

01:40 it was 128, 129.

01:41 Now, it's 140+.

01:43 So, he changed his mind.

01:46 - Okay. - Which is good for Pakistan.

01:47 Is it better to play with Rizwan or Babar?

01:51 - For Kamran. - For Kamran?

01:52 - Ask Kamran. - Kamran?

01:54 - He's a superstar. - For Kamran, it's better.

01:56 I think you shouldn't forcefully change anyone's number.

01:59 If it's settled on one number,

02:01 I personally think that it shouldn't be on number three.

02:04 He has played a lot of runs in T20,

02:06 as an opener, for Rizwan and Babar.

02:09 If you want to play on number three,

02:12 it's better to get someone else to play.

02:15 You shouldn't force it.

02:16 That was my opinion.

02:18 The rest is the team management's decision.

02:21 But he said that he's on number three for Pakistan.

02:24 But if you ask me personally,

02:26 I wasn't happy to play on number three.

02:29 So, it's going on.

02:31 - Everyone is saying it. - I don't understand.

02:33 Are all the players going to say this in the press conference?

02:38 I don't think so.

02:40 I think there must have been a question.

02:41 - There was a question. - There was a question.

02:43 No, I'm right in answering.

02:45 I can dodge the bullet.

02:47 - But when I say... - If he said no comments,

02:50 then it would have been a different issue.

02:52 But if a player like Babar says this,

02:56 he can say it to the chairman.

02:58 - The performance is so good. - Exactly.

03:00 It's better to talk in a closed room.

03:03 Rizwan has said this before.

03:05 Other players have said this.

03:06 - Haris has said this. - This shouldn't happen.

03:09 - It shouldn't happen. - It's not good.
