00:00Welcome to SportsZoom, I am your host Najeeb Ul Hassan and the nightmare is over.
00:20Pakistan had to face defeat in the innings.
00:24They were the first team in the world to score 500 runs and still lost in the innings.
00:30I have with me our sports correspondent Shahid Hashmi from Multan and Kamran Akmal has also joined us.
00:36First of all, Mr. Shahid, I will come to you.
00:38We were expecting this, it was a matter of time.
00:42It was said that it will go till lunch or after lunch.
00:45What should we talk about the bad cricket that Pakistan has played overall?
00:49What would you say?
00:51It is a very bad situation and our test cricket has been badly affected.
00:56But it was visible for 2-3 years.
00:58Former cricketers were saying, analysts were saying, but no attention was given.
01:03And we have been badly affected in the matter of pitches.
01:07We don't know what our strength is.
01:10Will we win the test match with a fast bowler?
01:12Will we win the test match with a spinner?
01:14Will we win the test match with batsmen?
01:17Yes, absolutely. All this is going on.
01:20Mr. Shahid, the issue is that if you talk about batting, that problem has been a problem for us for a long time.
01:28If you talk about bowling, you don't have good red ball bowlers.
01:32If you talk about captaining, we are also failing continuously.
01:37Six test matches have been played and Shahan Masood is not able to win in his captaining.
01:42Kamran Akmal is also with us.
01:44Let's talk to Kamran.
01:46Kamran, what will you say about a very shameful defeat once again?
01:52I think there is a lot of embarrassment.
01:57Pakistanis don't know our cricket.
02:01But what you said in the intro that we were expecting the English team to do this.
02:09I was not saying that when the score was 5-56, that at least the Pakistan team will lose.
02:14I was expecting that we will not win, but at least we will draw.
02:19But how can you blame the pitch?
02:23The test match ended in 4 and a half days.
02:26You blame your system, you blame your players, you blame their mindset.
02:33What mindset are they playing with?
02:35Are they playing to win or to achieve a personal milestone?
02:39Are they playing to win cricket with Pakistan?
02:43They have been winning.
02:45Are they playing cricket to make a world record?
02:49Has the record not been made?
02:51The series that has been played in Pakistan in the last 2-3 years,
02:54the Pakistan team is playing the worst cricket.
02:57Absolutely right.
02:59Mr. Shahid, there is no doubt that we have become the worst team in the world at home.
03:07And whatever is coming is coming badly.
03:10I am surprised that you must have heard the statement of Shahan Masood.
03:16First, let's show you what Shahan Masood said and then we will talk about it.
03:21You tell us the expectation.
03:23Here we expected that this pitch would start breaking very soon.
03:27Maybe at the end of day 2, at the start of day 3.
03:29That's why we tried to extend the first innings as much as possible.
03:34They found a way and they did 20 outs.
03:36You can't say that 20 can't be out on this.
03:39You can't win a test match without doing 20 outs.
03:41It's not a simple bat and ball competition.
03:44Batting is ours, bowling is ours, fielding is ours.
03:47Right now, Abrar's condition has been very bad.
03:50He is hospitalized.
03:51Obviously, we will reflect on what mistakes have been made today,
03:54what can be improved and we will talk to the groundsman.
03:57Shahid sir, Shahan Masood said that we should learn from England.
04:02First, tell me that we didn't learn anything from England in 2022.
04:10You can say that the management was different, the head coach was different, the captain was different.
04:16We don't know what happened at that time.
04:19But we should have learned a lot from that series.
04:22We should have learned a lot from the Bangladesh series.
04:25But we are neither learning nor doing homework.
04:28It is absolutely true that if you take 20 wickets, you win the test match.
04:32England should find a way to take 20 wickets.
04:34Our bowlers didn't find a way.
04:36Our spinner proved to be completely ineffective.
04:39Our fast bowlers have definitely killed.
04:42But if you give them such a pitch, what can you expect from them?
04:47They didn't play cricket for 5 days.
04:49They are playing 10 overs of the World Cup.
04:52It is unfair to them as well.
04:54Naseem Shah had bowled out.
04:56Root had hit a good ball.
04:58It went to the umpire's call.
05:00It was very unfortunate for Pakistan.
05:02Then at 186, when Root was at Naseem Shah's game,
05:06Baba Radham left an easy catch.
05:08After that, there were 200 more runs on that partnership.
05:11So chances were created.
05:13But if you go to this pitch and read the maths and take the science test,
05:17then the number will be zero.
05:19Absolutely right.
05:20But Kamran, the question that arises here is that
05:22the pitch was equal for both the teams.
05:25And the thing is that in the heat of Multan,
05:28the England team should have been worried.
05:31Their wings should have flown.
05:33How did it go the other way around?
05:35They are doing it on a good channel.
05:37They are creating chances.
05:39Our chances came, we couldn't avail.
05:41But they used this condition much better than us.
05:44Every team is doing it.
05:46A team like Bangladesh is using better conditions.
05:49Their game plan was good.
05:51Their game awareness was good.
05:53Their body language was good.
05:55Their fitness level was good.
05:56But the problem that you have,
06:00the problem that the bowlers have,
06:01what have they done?
06:02Let me tell you one thing.
06:03They didn't leave any corner of the ground where the fielders couldn't run.
06:07They made the whole ground spin.
06:09They didn't bowl on one line.
06:10The England team has also bowled.
06:12But they have used this condition,
06:15this experience on such a pitch,
06:18that they don't have any excuse.
06:20They know how to fight,
06:22how to win,
06:23how to perform.
06:25They have the experience of a domestic team.
06:2740-50 matches,
06:294-8 games.
06:30It means that for 3-4 years,
06:32they have played domestically.
06:34Their fitness level,
06:35they have played in every condition.
06:37You see,
06:38we have had fast bowlers for 4-5 years.
06:41They are playing white-ball cricket.
06:42They don't play red-ball cricket so much,
06:44not even domestically.
06:45You can imagine,
06:46what is the standard of our bowling?
06:49Our 6 bowlers have scored 100 runs.
06:52Can anyone think that the team that has scored 5-60,
06:555-50 plus runs,
06:573 centuries,
06:581-1.5 centuries,
06:59that is a test match today.
07:00It means that your intentions are not right.
07:03You are playing for the Turkish team,
07:04not for Pakistan.
07:06You are playing to win.
07:07You will leave your zone.
07:10You are not competing with others.
07:15You are absolutely right.
07:16Mr. Shahid, final thoughts.
07:17The thing is that we neither played good cricket,
07:20nor were we prepared for it.
07:22And the future is also bad.
07:23What do you say?
07:25Absolutely clueless.
07:26And you didn't think of any plan.
07:28You didn't even think of it.
07:32Yes, yes.
07:33I want to say something.
07:34Yes.
07:35See, Najeeb,
07:36until we don't finish the queues,
07:39the conditions are not good,
07:40the pitch is not good.
07:41No team in the world does what we are saying.
07:45We as the media,
07:46as a cricketer,
07:47we, the people of Pakistan,
07:50these players,
07:51will have to think that
07:52we have to out the past pitch.
07:55Inexperienced bowling can out England,
07:58so we can't blame them
08:00that the pitch is not good.
08:02Okay.
08:03Thank you very much.
08:04Shahid Hashmi was with us.
08:05Kamran Akmal was with us.
08:06And the time was a little short.
08:08But obviously,
08:09disappointing performance by Pakistan.
08:11And the situation is similar in the future.
08:14Give your host, Najeeb-ul-Asmain,
08:15permission.
08:16Take care of yourself.
08:17Allah Hafiz.
