00:00It's a big moment for Pakistan cricket.

00:03We have won the series for the second time in Australia.

00:06If you look at the numbers, we have won two out of five series.

00:11Which are very good and compatible numbers now.

00:15Very good numbers, you can say.

00:17Out of five, they have won three and we have won two.

00:20If we talk about this series, the Pakistan team has really made us happy.

00:26The kind of performance the boys have given us.

00:29The kind of body language.

00:32The way they played with passion and plan.

00:36They played intelligent cricket.

00:38There was no panic.

00:40They dominated.

00:43There were a lot of qualities in this series.

00:46We were not expecting this.

00:49Like you said, Waseem Akram is a big name.

00:52One of the biggest names in Pakistan's cricket.

00:56He goes everywhere and talks about Pakistan.

00:59Obviously, he is in the commentary box.

01:01He represents Pakistan.

01:03Even he said that we have won a match.

01:07Still, it's a big thing.

01:09I think it's a great surprise and a great gift from the Pakistan cricket team.

01:14Who should get the credit for this series?

01:20This is a team game.

01:22This is not an individual sport.

01:24This is a team sport.

01:26We know this.

01:28Teams win only those who play together.

01:31If you look at the history, if you review any team,

01:36if you analyze their performances,

01:39if you think about why Australia was so consistent in 2000.

01:45The way we were losing,

01:49two years later, I saw that our team was winning trophies.

01:54We have won a series like this.

01:56We have seen such a great performance.

01:58Do you think Rizwan should get the credit for this?

02:03I was coming to that.

02:05I was coming to that.

02:07Captain is a very key position in cricket.

02:12In cricket, the captain inspires the whole team.

02:15In the past, the captains like Waseem Akram,

02:18Inji Bhai, Mohin Khan, Imran Khan,

02:21they used to inspire the team.

02:24They used to inspire the team and lead the team.

02:27What I have seen in the Pakistan cricket team,

02:30Rizwan, I was sure that whenever he will become the captain,

02:34this will be the result.

02:36Because we have played cricket,

02:38and this boy knows how he leads the team,

02:41how he leads United.

02:43Look, the captain starts flopping there,

02:46when he puts pressure on himself.

02:48And his ability to think ends.

02:51He gets mentally blocked.

02:54He doesn't listen to anyone.

02:56He doesn't consult anyone.

02:59This is what Rizwan did.

03:02He leads everyone.

03:04Number two, he stays in eye contact with the bowler.

03:07When your captain is a wicket-keeper,

03:10even before this, Sarfaraz was the captain.

03:12He won the ICC champion trophy.

03:14He raised his game there.

03:17He came to play at number four.

03:19A Sri Lankan match,

03:21his catch was dropped.

03:23But still, why did Allah give him respect?

03:26There was unity,

03:28discipline,

03:30and the will to do something.

03:32We can still see that.

03:34There is still a lot to do.

03:36We will see.
