00:00Hello and welcome to Sports Room. I am your host, Najeeb Al-Asnayan.
00:17Today, we have with us your well-known former wicketkeeper batter, Kamran Akmal.
00:23Assalam-o-Alaikum.
00:24Walaikum-as-salam.
00:25Kamran, how are you?
00:26Alhamdulillah.
00:27There are so many things going on. There is so much excitement. The Champions Trophy is near.
00:31There is a test series going on. We have to talk to you about a lot of things.
00:35That is why we have invited you to the studio today.
00:37First of all, let's come to yesterday's topic.
00:40Yesterday, as you know, the Indian media started a new controversy regarding the Champions Trophy.
00:46They had to give up on the fact that people in Jersey will not have the name of the host nation, i.e. Pakistan.
00:52According to the Indian media, the secretary of the BCCI has accepted that the guidelines of the ICC will be followed.
01:01First of all, we have with us sports correspondent, Shahid Hashmi.
01:05Shahid, this has been going on since yesterday. What are the updates? What is going to happen now?
01:09Yesterday, we said that India also wants that if the name of Pakistan is not given,
01:15the name of the UAE should be given because they are playing all their matches in the UAE.
01:18But the ICC said that there will be only one official logo on which the name of Pakistan will be given as the host nation.
01:26And that logo will be official.
01:28The same logo will be used by eight teams.
01:30Now, the secretary of the BCCI has also confirmed that the same logo will be on the shirts of the Indian team.
01:37The ICC's official, on which the name of Pakistan will be given as the host nation.
01:41So, a big victory for Pakistan.
01:43The Pakistan Cricket Board did not pay any attention to this news when it came to the Indian media.
01:50And it was completely rejected that this cannot happen.
01:53Because there is an ICC tournament, there is an official logo in it, it cannot be violated.
01:58And all teams have to send their kit to the ICC for approval.
02:02It has all the specifications of logos, commercial sponsors, and the specifications of the host country.
02:10Only then that kit is approved.
02:12Now, the Indian Cricket Board has said that how long should India be accepted?
02:16If India agrees that Pakistan does not want to come, then a conditional hybrid model has been approved on the hybrid model.
02:22Pakistan has never involved politics in sports.
02:28Pakistan did not play in the T20 World Cup of 2021 in India due to COVID-19.
02:33It happened in the UAE, but the name of the host was India.
02:36In the 2023 World Cup, Pakistan put India's name on its shirts and played.
02:40So what is India's objection to this?
02:42Why do they try to involve all this politics?
02:45But all is well that ends well.
02:48And now the Indian team will also play with the name of Logo Pakistan.
02:52It is good. India will know that it has a status.
02:56Yes, Kamran, this is the issue.
02:58And this has been going on since yesterday.
03:00And now it has been accepted that obviously the name of the host will be there.
03:02What do you think about this?
03:03Look, it should definitely be there.
03:05We struggled to digest it.
03:10Pakistan was hosting the Asia Cup logo, but it was not written on it.
03:16But this is an ICC event.
03:18So the logo of each team's jersey should have been there.
03:22I think the Pakistan Cricket Board ignored it completely.
03:27It should have been done this way.
03:29The value should not have been given.
03:31The ICC saw this and took notice.
03:33After that, the press release of their secretary came.
03:36So I think the SOPs should be followed properly by the ICC.
03:40From each team.
03:42Now it is not that everything should be done on their own.
03:44Relations will not get better.
03:46The level of cricket will not get better.
03:48And the image of Indian cricket is also deteriorating with the world.
03:50The hybrid model has also deteriorated.
03:53They made a lot of fun of it.
03:55So the media should not do such things.
03:57There are some people, not all the media.
03:59There are some people who exaggerate such things.
04:02So it will not be of any use.
04:04It will be a loss.
04:05Absolutely right.
04:06And yesterday we were talking about the guidelines of the ICC.
04:09The ICC is the governing body of cricket.
04:11So everyone should follow their policy.
04:14Look, they are doing it.
04:16Every team is doing it.
04:18Unfortunately, I will say this.
04:20The ICC event is happening on a hybrid model.
04:22You know some issues are at the top level.
04:24They will not sit at the table.
04:26These things will continue for a while.
04:28The ICC should also try to solve it.
04:30So it is better.
04:32Now there should be no compromise on this.
04:34As we will do.
04:36Similarly, Pakistan will also have to respond.
04:38For the next three years, the Pakistan Cricket Board has convinced the ICC and the BCCI.
04:44But now as they want.
04:46We are also responding the same way.
04:48We have taken a big step.
04:50We have taken one step, two steps forward.
04:52We have taken two steps forward.
04:54But now there should be a positive response from them too.
04:56It makes sense.
04:58Your behavior towards us and our cricket.
05:00Expect the same from us.
05:02It will work like that.
05:04Anyway, moving on.
05:06Let's talk about the test match between Pakistan and the West Indies.
05:08For which the preparations are fast in Multan.
05:10Yes, Cameron, we have caught that formula.
05:12We have to call from outside.
05:14We have to make a turning track.
05:16We have to play on the rank turner.
05:18And we have to out them quickly.
05:20Will the pitch of the West Indies be prepared again?
05:22Or will you think about the fast bowlers?
05:24Or will you think about the runs of the batsmen?
05:26We should think.
05:28We should also think about the fast bowlers.
05:30We should also think about the batters.
05:32So that they also get time to perform.
05:34If you play in such tough conditions.
05:36First of all, your fast bowlers will be completely wasted.
05:38Their level of performance.
05:40Their interest in playing test cricket.
05:42You will finish it.
05:44There is no good sign for the coming kids.
05:46Then you see the batters.
05:48Then you see the batsmen.
05:50Then you think.
05:52After this, our ICC event is so big.
05:54These two test matches are like dead rubbers for us.
05:56There will be no difference in the championship.
05:58So you make such pitches.
06:00For one day.
06:02Your fast bowlers also bowl.
06:04There is reverse swing.
06:06Your batters also run.
06:08It would have been better.
06:10But here they have made so many break wickets.
06:12They don't understand.
06:14We don't understand either.
06:16We don't know how to play.
06:18How to take the test match.
06:20But at least we are going to win.
06:22But against such teams.
06:24We should make better pitches.
06:26We should identify.
06:28I said earlier when we won the test match.
06:30You were also in the program.
06:32We have to identify the top teams.
06:34Against whom we have to make such pitches.
06:36There are four top teams.
06:38Australia, England, New Zealand, South Africa.
06:40You must play.
06:42When lower level teams come.
06:44When they come to your competition.
06:46To improve your team.
06:48To improve the quality of cricket.
06:50To create interest in the fans.
06:52You have to play better cricket.
06:56I agree with your thought.
06:58But there is also a point of view.
07:02When you give a chance to a fast bowler.
07:04He will also be strong.
07:06He will also give his life in this condition.
07:08Do you agree with this?
07:10By giving you a proper fast bowler.
07:12You should also give him a chance.
07:14You should definitely give him a chance.
07:16You have made one over.
07:18There are test matches in India.
07:20Bumrah Saraj is also out there.
07:22Arshad Rana is also out.
07:24They make such pitches.
07:26There is a reverse swing.
07:28There is a little bounce to the keeper.
07:30Such pitches were made in Pakistan before this.
07:32We have played so many series.
07:34In UAE, it was fine.
07:36There was no work for fast bowlers.
07:38Spinners dominated there.
07:40But making Pakistan's pitch so dead.
07:42For our future.
07:44It is not a good sign.
07:46It is not a good sign.
07:48Not 3 fast bowlers.
07:50At least 2 fast bowlers should play.
07:52Even a fast bowler is bowling.
07:54Spinners also have to work hard.
07:56If we go to Bangladesh or Sri Lanka.
07:58They will not give us so much break.
08:00I am not talking about Australia or England.
08:02You go there on the third day.
08:04After two and a half days.
08:06The break of the spinners starts.
08:08Before that, you have to prepare spinners.
08:10You have to know.
08:12In Australia, Nathan Land can out 530.
08:14He did not get such break victims.
08:16He became world class.
08:18In tough conditions.
08:20It is not so easy for spinners.
08:22But he made his name.
08:24With his performance.
08:26Our spinners also have to use it.
08:28We have always seen in Test Cricket.
08:30There is a battle between bat and ball.
08:32First your fast bowler annoys you.
08:34Then the batsman.
08:36Then the spinners come.
08:38They get a chance.
08:40This is the story of the third and fourth day.
08:42This happened from the first day.
08:44If you look at the overall.
08:46He has done 177.2 overs.
08:48It's a two-day game.
08:50That's what I am saying.
08:52India also does the same.
08:54Against the team I have named.
08:56They play 3-3 spinners.
08:58But those who come down.
09:00They make such pitches.
09:02That fast bowlers can also bowl.
09:04That's why you have to improve your cricket.
09:06Because when the World Test Championship.
09:08The race will start again.
09:10Then think about it.
09:12That's why I am saying.
09:14It was our champion trophy.
09:16And there was no use of it.
09:18Along with that.
09:20Let's update you about the ICC ranking.
09:22Before going to the break.
09:24Akil has improved by three degrees.
09:26He has come to number 8.
09:28Rizwan has come to number 18.
09:30Babur Azam has gone down four numbers.
09:32And Noman Ali.
09:34He has come to the top 10 again.
09:36So.
09:38There is an improvement in the good sign.
09:40You can see the result.
09:42It's all about performance.
09:44When you perform.
09:46It doesn't matter what the condition is.
09:48You have come to the top 10.
09:50You have performed.
09:52So you have to think big.
09:54It's a good sign for Pakistan's cricket.
09:56But I will be even happier.
09:58When you see.
10:0015-16 test matches.
10:02How many wickets.
10:04In what condition.
10:06How many wickets in the last three matches.
10:08In the last three test matches.
10:10Spinner has taken 60 wickets at home.
10:12We have not left anything.
10:14That's why I am saying.
10:16I am with the team in domestic.
10:18In the first over.
10:20Spinner is on the grass pitch.
10:22There is no spin.
10:24There is no break.
10:26Now this is a little ahead.
10:28You have to make spinners in domestic.
10:30Their approach will change.
10:32When you will show good cricket internationally.
10:36Let's take a commercial break here.
10:38We will be right back.
10:44Glad to have you back once again to sports room.
10:46And the way we make the pitch of the test match.
10:48Hiding like a bride.
10:50We are also announcing our champion's trophy.
10:52Everything is done.
10:54We are left.
10:56There is no secret.
10:58The team is what is expected.
11:02Everyone is praying for Saim.
11:04Saim should be fit.
11:06And make space in the team.
11:08India has also announced the team.
11:10They are not sure.
11:12Whether Bumrah is 100% fit or not.
11:14But they have also prepared a replacement.
11:18We can also do this.
11:20There is no problem.
11:22Team is settled.
11:24Who will be the third opener with Saim?
11:28Fakhar should definitely be there.
11:32Saim and No Saim Fakhar should be there.
11:34If Saim and Fakhar will open.
11:36Your team will be very strong.
11:38God forbid.
11:40If he is not fit.
11:42He can get injured.
11:44If he comes.
11:46Pakistan team will have big chances.
11:48To finish in top 4.
11:50If Saim is there.
11:52Saim, Fakhar and Imam.
11:54These will be your three openers.
11:56If Saim is not there.
11:58Saim, Fakhar, Imam and Shaan.
12:00These will be your three openers.
12:02Shaan should be there.
12:04Unfortunately.
12:06If Saim is not there.
12:08Shaan is the best option.
12:10He has performed well in test matches.
12:12Middle order.
12:14He is very strong.
12:16Number 4 is settled.
12:18Number 5 is Salman Ali Agha.
12:20In South Africa.
12:22Tayyab Tahir has shown intent.
12:24Kamran Ghulam has shown.
12:26I think he is the best option.
12:28Both spinners are settled.
12:30Both spinners are settled.
12:32Confidence is there.
12:34Fast bowlers are settled.
12:36But here.
12:38Pakistan team is missing.
12:40Pakistan team is missing.
12:42You have not utilized it properly.
12:44You have not utilized it properly.
12:46Amir Jamal should be there.
12:48He has performed well in Australia Tour.
12:50He has performed well in Australia Tour.
12:52He should be there.
12:54Irfan Khan is there.
12:56He is an amazing fielder.
12:58But he has performed well in batting.
13:00Exactly.
13:02Kamran has made an impact.
13:04Tayyab Tahir made an impact.
13:06Tayyab Tahir has made an impact.
13:08He has performed well in T20.
13:10I think he is the best option.
13:12Khujdil Shah is mentioned.
13:14Khujdil Shah is mentioned.
13:16Kamran, Tayyab Tahir or Niazi, you have the first option, Kamran Ghulam.
13:23If I make a team, I will put Tayyab Tahir before Kamran Ghulam.
13:30I will make him play.
13:32The way he has shown his batting, the way he has shown his form recently.
13:35He is a great fielder. He is a team man.
13:37He fights well.
13:38I think we should take a chance on these guys.
13:41It is not that difficult.
13:42It is not that difficult.
