00:00I hope the Champions Trophy starts the day after tomorrow.

00:03The team is in great form.

00:05We will have a tri-series. New Zealand and South Africa will come again.

00:09And that will start in the first week of February.

00:12So, Pakistan's preparations are great.

00:14Defeating Australia in Australia after 22 years.

00:18Getting South Africa whitewashed for the first time.

00:20Team on a roll.

00:22Absolutely.

00:23Mr. Basit Ali has also joined us.

00:25Mr. Basit, Assalam-o-Alaikum.

00:27Mr. Basit, can you hear me?

00:29Yes, I can hear you.

00:31Mr. Basit, we have won the Whitewash Series.

00:34And our youngsters have performed.

00:37This is always a good sign.

00:39When your young players get a chance, they should avail it.

00:42How do you see it?

00:44You are absolutely right.

00:46First, Shahid Parry and you both.

00:48Assalam-o-Alaikum.

00:49Assalam-o-Alaikum.

00:50Live long.

00:51See, cricket is a game of confidence.

00:53This was almost 80% the feeling.

00:58And they were performing so well.

01:00We should mention one name here.

01:02His name is Atif Chavez.

01:03Yes, absolutely.

01:04As soon as he joined the team,

01:06or when he became a selector,

01:08he did one thing.

01:09And he was successful.

01:11From there, the confidence and confidence of the boys came.

01:15Because of confidence, you will see,

01:17Saim Ali, who failed so much in 20-21 matches,

01:20in his first three wickets.

01:22We were also talking about it.

01:24He had a lot of chances.

01:25But the selectors and coaches trusted him.

01:28The captain trusted him.

01:29The way he played in the test match.

01:31So these are the things,

01:32after confidence comes,

01:33you will see,

01:34Babar played a role in the last two matches.

01:37It's too early to say,

01:39I remembered Javed Bhai,

01:41he played with him.

01:42First, he played with Saim in the second match.

01:45He played with Rizwan.

01:47And now he is playing.

01:48Our top four, who are performing well,

01:50except Abdullah Chavez,

01:52who was out on zero in all three matches.

01:54You see, Salman Ali Agha,

01:56Kamran, Ghulam, Niazi,

01:58and Tayyab Khan.

01:59Their confidence level was so good,

02:01they were hitting sixes and sixes in front.

02:03So this shows that,

02:05there was confidence in your batting,

02:07because of which we were losing.

02:09We were not chasing.

02:11That thing has changed completely.

02:13And this is the prayer from Allah.

02:15If the confidence remains the same,

02:17then God willing,

02:18you will reach the Champions Cup easily.

02:22Absolutely, it seems so.

02:24Mr. Shahi, the thing is that,

02:25Babar plays well on his own.

02:27In T20 format,

02:29he slows down a bit,

02:31or comes up,

02:32so he can't enjoy the power play properly.

02:34But the problem here,

02:36was not about playing,

02:37it was the problem of their captaincy.

02:39And the problem was that,

02:40you were not allowing new talent

02:42to come in the regular interval.

02:44People also call it friendship.

02:46But I say,

02:47you didn't give a chance to new talent.

02:49Then everyone used to say one sentence,

02:51what will Babar do?

02:52Now there are youngsters at the top,

02:54and youngsters at the bottom,

02:55they are all contributing.

02:57So when the young boys get a chance at the right time,

02:59will they deliver?

03:00Absolutely, it is like that.

03:01Rizwan gave a chance,

03:02the selection committee chose him,

03:04Rizwan gave a chance.

03:05Aqib Javed also always likes the youngsters,

03:08and promotes the youngsters.

03:10And in development,

03:11Aqib's work is not of anyone.

03:13When Pakistan won the Junior World Cup in 2004,

03:15Aqib Javed was the coach.

03:17In 2009 T20 World Cup,

03:19he was a part of the coaching staff.

03:20Now he has got the coaching of the senior team,

03:22so may Allah bless Pakistan,

03:24and defend the Champions Trophy.

03:26And next year,

03:27next to next year,

03:28in the T20 World Cup,

03:29Pakistan should do something better.

03:31T20's team has gone down,

03:32ODI's team has come up,

03:34now we have become the number 3 ranking team.

03:36So youngsters get a chance,

03:38they get confidence,

03:39they get a chance with consistency,

03:40so they run.

03:41As far as Babar is concerned,

03:43Babar did not learn in captaining,

03:45he kept evolving himself as a batsman.

03:47Now he has learned,

03:49that his T20 team is also in danger,

03:51he was out of the test team,

03:54now he has the ODI format,

03:56in which he is the world number 1,

03:58so he has to bring the players together,

04:00like Basit said,

04:01he brought them together,

04:02in one match,

04:03he did a partnership with Rizwan for 115 runs,

04:05in the third match,

04:06he did a partnership with Saim for 114 runs,

04:08and they both,

04:10Rizwan and Babar,

04:11in all three matches,

04:12provided the platform,

04:13from which the players came down and hit.

04:15And in two halves,

04:16Pakistan's team has played.

04:17In the last match,

04:18after 25 overs,

04:19the next 25 overs were amazing,

04:21in the first 25 overs of yesterday,

04:22120 runs,

04:23in the next 22 overs,

04:24188 runs,

04:25amazing batting.

04:26Amazing batting.

04:27So the way you are playing one day,

04:29if you hit 6s,

04:304s,

04:31and keep your wickets in hand,

04:32in the last 20-25 overs,

04:33if you charge the bat,

04:34your team will win.
