00:00Assalam-o-Alaikum, hello and welcome to SportsZoom, I am your host Najeeb-ul-Hasnain.
00:09Viewers, after the T20 World Cup 2024, we all realised that on and off the field we
00:15have to make big changes if we want Pakistan Cricket to not be in the same state as the
00:21national hockey.
00:22And that is why when Chairman PCP Mohsin Naqvi used the word surgery, everyone thought that
00:29he is actually very serious about this matter.
00:32But is this an actual surgery or will there be cosmetic changes?
00:35We are trying to find out and in this regard, today, former captain of Pakistan Salman Butt
00:41has joined us.
00:42Salman, Assalam-o-Alaikum, welcome to the show.
00:44After the World Cup, the word surgery that is going on in Pakistan Cricket, let's start
00:50with that.
00:51And what do you think, after removing the selectors and manager, will the surgery process
00:57continue?
00:58Or will it stop with the change of the captain?
03:57Or is this just a news story?
05:58the world cup?

10:42What do you think?
10:43What do you think?
10:44What do you think?
10:45What do you think?
10:47Glad to have you back once again to Sports Room in conversation with former captain of Pakistan Salman.
10:51But Salman, let's talk a little about Red Bull.
10:53In Australia, after a test match, it is said that Sarfaraz Ahmed, who has been dropped, can be included in the squad.
11:00Will he be able to make a place in the team with Rizwan?
11:05It depends. Both are good performers.
11:08In Australia, Sarfaraz was completely out because the pitches were different there.
11:14He wasn't as effective as he was in Asian conditions.
11:20He played very good cricket in the home series in Sri Lanka.
11:23So it depends on who you are playing against and where you are playing.
11:27England also wants to visit Pakistan.
11:29Last time when they came here, they did a whitewash.
11:32This time we will have to learn a lot from our mistakes. What will you say?
11:37First of all, you have to grow your heart.
11:40You have to make pitches on which you can give a chance to your young bowlers.
11:45You have made such flat pitches just to get a mad draw.
11:50And they have found a way to win against a good, big team.
11:54So irrespective of the fact, you have to keep a good cricket in mind and make pitches accordingly.
11:59You yourself made flat pitches against England and Australia.
12:03So you said that Australian fast bowlers are very good.
12:07And when it comes to spin, you said that Nathan Lyon will bowl.
12:10So if you don't want to play against anyone, you can play against each other.
12:13So it is better that you show courage and make good pitches.
12:17If you want to make a spin, then you should make a spin and give a chance to your spinners.
12:21And if you want to play against young fast bowlers who perform at domestic level,
12:25then there is a lot of swing there.
12:27Where they perform, there is support.
12:29So if you make pitches without support, it is very unfair to those young boys.
12:34Khurram Shehzad just went to Australia.
12:37So you saw that he is a good bowler.
12:39Amir Hamza.
12:40If you make him play on your pitches, then he will keep bowling all day long.
12:44And the other team will enjoy.
12:46Okay Salman, tell us how did you see Shaan's captaincy in Australia?
12:49And now after the arrival of Jason Gillespie, what do you think?
12:53Will there be a difference in approach?
12:55This will be known when the match takes place.
12:57But his record, the way he is a part of a winning team.
13:02He has won a lot of World Cups.
13:04And he has been a premier player in the Australian system.
13:07So definitely that mindset, that winning habit,
13:10it doesn't leave a person.
13:12And less than that, a person is not satisfied with anything.
13:15So if we keep those things in front, then there is a good hope.
13:19That God willing, it will improve.
13:21Shaan, I think, did well as a captain.
13:23Conditions in Australia and cricket is always tough.
13:27And there were a lot of youngsters in Pakistan's team.
13:29Despite that, if Pakistan had just caught their catches,
13:32then the results would have been different.
13:34So Pakistan didn't play bad cricket there.
13:36Yes, there were some things in our strategic,
13:40where our focus was on intent.
13:44More than necessary.
13:45That is, you used to listen to the strike rate.
13:47We used to listen to the press conferences of our staff, sports staff, or players.
13:51Pakistan didn't play a match beyond the fourth day.
13:54One or one and a half days used to be wasted.
13:56So what were you in a hurry for?
13:58You used to play long.
13:59Some used to tire Australia.
14:00Some used to make big runs.
14:02This hurry, which causes unreasonable sounds,
14:06doesn't justify it.
14:08Australia won the series 3-0 by playing at a lower run rate than us.
14:11What did we do by playing fast?
14:13The answer to this question should be asked to those
14:15who repeatedly talk about strike rate and intent in test cricket.
14:18Absolutely right.
14:19Salman, taking advantage of your presence,
14:21let's talk about some women's cricket as well.
14:23Before that, tell the audience
14:25that the Women's Asia Cup is starting in Sri Lanka from tomorrow.
14:29Let's show you the details in this report.
14:31Yes, Salman.
14:32The situation is such that the Asia Cup of Women's is starting from tomorrow.
14:36In this, Pakistan's first match is against India.
14:39Do you think we have the ability to defeat India?
14:44Look, to be honest,
14:47our women's team is deprived of a lot of facilities.
14:52They don't have a dedicated centre.
14:55They don't have clubs where they can be their own.
14:59And it should be an all-women affair.
15:01There are a lot of restrictions for them.
15:03As a culture of our society, it's not easy for them to move about.
15:07So, in such an environment,
15:09and there is no culture of fitness,
15:11there is no exposure.
15:13So, I think, despite that,
15:15they should be appreciated for what they play.
15:18But if you want to build their capacity,
15:20if you want to build their fitness,
15:23and as long as they don't go to their dedicated centres,
15:27and their first-class cricket is not 3-day,
15:29it's not in Pakistan at all,
15:31then there is no game awareness without it.
15:33The other teams play 3-day cricket in their countries,
15:37or play British cricket,
15:38but we don't play women's.
15:39Game awareness doesn't develop in small formats.
15:42So, Pakistan will have to first complete these things,
15:45and then make big expectations from them.
15:47Absolutely right.
15:48India is the defending champion of the Asia Cup.
15:51Right now, the Asia Cup is taking place in Sri Lanka.
15:54And looking at the conditions,
15:56who do you think is the favourite?
15:59I think India is a team that is very strong.
16:04And there are a few players from Sri Lanka who are outstanding.
16:07Internationally, they have made big runs.
16:09If we talk about Athapattu,
16:11she is a very, very dominant player.
16:13So, on the day, anything can happen in cricket.
16:16You can get a surprising result.
16:18But you don't get consistency.
16:20You don't get greatness
16:21until you have all the skill sets,
16:23and you are fully aware of the game.
16:25Let's talk about the Pakistan Shaheens.
16:28The Pakistan Shaheen's red ball squad has reached Darwin.
16:32We have to play a 4-day series against Bangladesh A.
16:36How much benefit will we get from this tour, Salman?
16:40We have to play from Bangladesh.
16:42What's the point of going to Australia?
16:44What's the point? Tell me.
16:46You don't have a match with Australia's A-team.
16:49You don't have a match with their state's first-class teams.
16:52There is some good club cricket in Darwin,
16:54where in the off-season,
16:56some players from the state come and join 3-4 teams.
16:59So, that is not the standard you are looking for.
17:02You don't go to Australia
17:03just because you want to play from Australia.
17:07Who do you want to play with?
17:08We played with PNG in the last tour.
17:11Now, we are playing with Bangladesh.
17:13If you had called Bangladesh's A-team to Pakistan,
17:15you would have spent the same money here.
17:17Or you would have sent the team to Bangladesh.
17:19You would have played more matches.
17:20Now, you will play 2-4 days in Darwin,
17:22which has a different condition.
17:24It's neither Perth, nor Melbourne, nor Sydney,
17:27nor Brisbane, nor Adelaide.
17:32They don't have a main centre.
17:34So, I don't know how to praise this tour,
17:38even if I try.
17:40If you want to send the A-team,
17:42you should send them to test cricket,
17:44from where they will get a result.
17:47First, you have to play from Bangladesh,
17:49and then you have to play in Australia.
17:51It's possible that they invited you,
17:53it's possible that they spent money.
17:54But if you look at the bigger picture,
17:59there is no cricket growth in this.
18:01The tour is done.
18:02Right now, Sri Lanka is playing
18:03with U-19 England and U-19.
18:05Take a look at their scorecards
18:07to see what kind of cricket is happening in England.
18:09Sri Lanka's team has been there for the past month.
18:12When did our team go to England last?
18:14When did our A-team go to South Africa, Australia?
18:16When did they play with the main teams?
18:18Now, India is going to play 5 test matches.
18:20So, before that, their A-team has Australia A.C. match.
18:23Why doesn't Pakistan have Australia A.C. match?
18:26Is this tour decided by ACB,
18:28or is it decided by a local association in Darwin?
18:30I don't even know that.
18:32So, I don't know how to praise this tour.
18:35When you hear about Australia A.C.,
18:38you will think that Pakistan's A-team is going to Australia.
18:41But if you know the whole thing,
18:43then it is hard to say what Pakistan has done.
18:46Thank you so much Salman Bhatt for being with us.
18:49He was sharing his clear stance and opinion on a lot of things.
18:53I hope you liked the program.
18:55I will take your leave now.
18:57Take care of yourself.
18:59Allah Hafiz.
19:05Allah Hafiz.
19:06Allah Hafiz.
