The Pavilion | 🇵🇰 PAKISTAN vs AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 (Post-Match) Expert Analysis | 20 October 2023 | A Sports 

Batting Average in 2023WC: 20.75 Babar Azam 23.00 Adil Rashid 23.50-Marco Jansen 37.00 Mark Wood Virat Kohli - 129.5 If Pakistani fans intend to put he and Kohli in the same league, it's high time he must step up.

Babar Azam is Not even 5 % equal to Kohli. As a true pakistani fans , they must end this nonsense debate now. Ling babar is only zimbabar.

Listening to these "legends" I feel how protected is Babar as a captain, nobody dared to pinpoint the level of his game awareness, his intent as a batsman, his shot selection. Not to mention his average against bigger teams in bigger stages. Cheery on icing his influence in team selection.

In this age of hyperbole and over the top absurdism, podcasts, reaction videos and public reactions, not just in Cricket but all other major sports - its so refreshing to see this measured, professional product - Kudos to the host, the experts and A-Sports team - this has been my goto show this World Cup. Well done, from Singapore

After 38 overs Pak were 274/4 needing 96 of 72 balls and Aussies were 3 over behind also in timer it was clear tactical error on Pakistan's part to take on Zampa who had just 2 overs remaining, Iftikhar had taken pat Cummins for 2 sixes in previous over and starc was struggling for rhythm they could have played out zampa and attack the 3 quicks and taken the game deep to 48 to 50 overs just basic game awareness which was missing just a constructive criticism.

Haris Rauf missed century by just 17 runs....But pace is pace yaar 😂😂😂

An anchor who knows his job, guests who patiently lend ears to other's opinion and then give their valuable inputs. This is how a talk show should be. Wish we see it some day in India too.

I love Misbah. He is extremely data driven and his analysis mostly is on point. He seems like a genuinely humble & nice guy. Such a pleasure to watch him on the show. I barely have the time to watch the whole game - but this show along with TGC are miles apart in post match coverage compared to other shows.

I really like shoaib Malik's thinking. Pakistan should realise that the best batsman in the team not necessarily has to be the captain. Sachin Tendulkar is a prime example

I am from India living in UK. I follow your post match session after every match. Really great to see the comments made by Pakistan’s legendary players like Great Wasim Akram, Mr.Dependable Misbah, Moin and Shoeb Malik. Great hosting too.

As a Indian i want to say to the A Sports Thank You for such a non - biased and critical analysis of the games. Our Indian Sports channel are like cheerleaders

Dropping Imad Wasim from WC is the biggest mistake... Excellent Player he is... MSD fan from India... ❤️

As an Indian what I noticed that the main difference was that Australian players know that what to do in this pitch due to ipl that its a six hitting ground rather than finding boundaries and wasting ball on it…it was completely pak’s team management duty to tell the players or inform them about the identity of the pitch.

*Pakistan lost to Australia* because of 1-India 2-Isreal 3-America 4-BCCI 5-ICC 6-Jai Shri Ram 7-Indian audience 8-Pitch soil which hate Pakistani cricketers and suddenly started troubling during Pakistan batting 9-Namaz was not allowed on pitch 10-And you can not deny *Global conspiracy against Pakistan*

Wasim bhai is such a legend and humble player I remember I met him in 2010 while he was having press conference, on my request I ask him to capture one picture with me and gave mobile to my friend to capture picture, the friend fumbled and couldn't capture the picture and I was asking to be quick but he wasn't managing it. Wasim bhai calmn me down and said "Koi baat nhe yara araam se capture kro no rush" he is truly a Gem. Love from Karachi.

The way Wasim Akram defended Shoaib is total purity which shows, this is the best analysis ever done. Totally unbiased opinion of all members.🇮🇳

Fakhre Alam is doing such a great job. Asking the right questions and asking exactly what went wrong. Senior players just avoid criticizing Babar and Rizwan. Iftikhar is blamed for playing a cross shot. What about the two selfish players who play first for themselves and then think about the team?

This is for Fakhr e Alam (hope I'm not butchering the name) and the people behind this coverage. The fact that Mr Alam probed Misbah to point out something specific about the collapse despite the dew, while pointing out that Misbah has been rather generic, it's not only something that's missing in Indian cricket coverage, but across the world. While a lot of sports anchors would just lap up generic perspectives (looking at you Cricbuzz anchors), Alam made it a point to have Misbah share specificities to the laymen and viewers. Kudos.. This is what Indian sports media coverage needs.

1999 World Cup group stage, Pakistan Australia post match presentation- "Moin Khan was hitting sixes like there is no tomorrow" I still remember this statement by Wasim Akram

I'm an Indian but i regularly watch your recordings i love ur unbiased discussions and honest opinions... Delighted to say that you always maintain a good amount of transparency... Awesome critical analysis...

This show is too good .. the balance of entertainment and professionalism in this cricket show is what makes it better than the other shows. Indian fan here. Keep it up guys!

The wickets took by Zampa are more valuable than that of Shaheen as Shaheen took wickets at the end of Aus innings when bulk of the runs scored & Zampa took wickets in the crucial time...

Love from India, big fans of Wasim Akram and Moin khan in their hay days. This is truly the most interesting technical analysis of the World Cup. I prefer watching this over all other shows in India slot otherwise

MONSTER OF RUN CHASE IS ALSO ONE ON ONE 👑 KING VIRAT KOHLI

134 tak sab thik tha.. 134 k bad inhone waqqt badal diya 🫴🫳 Jazbaat badal diye 🫳🫴 😂😂

Legend always says ”we were not upto the mark”😂😂😂😂😂

I don't understand why the whole panel always critise everyone but Babar. It is high time he should be held accountable, he is an average player who has never helped Pakistan win a match in tournaments. I want to know why the show always ignore Babar's incompetency. Especially Wasim, he is teaching tail-enders how to bat but how about number1 batsman??

Love this show. I live in Nashua, NH ( USA) and I have been watching this show since last couple of months . Panel packed with legends and what a terrific and adorable host Fakre Alan.Hats off to you gentlemen!!!

My respect for Wasim Bhai had reduced in recent times, until I heard his stern but brutally honest review on Pak teams intentions today. He is not the only person saying this, but Andul Razzaq, Imad Wasim, Amir, and plenty of other viewers have raised these concerns. I was amongst the first who saw this and wanted change in Pakistani team immediately. Unfortunately, despite humiliating losses in world cups, champions trophy, and Asia cup, no change in attitude and selection occured. It is all about selfish individual stats in current Misbah/Babar 11 and almost zero emphasis on winning games for the country as a team. Even the national team selection has been done on selfishness. The top 4 batsmen in domestic cup along with other power hitters such as Usman who has the fastest hundred record in Pakistan, etc. have been kept far far away from the Babar 11 for years. So many exceptionally talented match winners from Pakistan have been forced to go abroad simply because they haven't been given the opportunity and respect they deserved. For just one year make winning matches your sincere priority and see how high our team flies. Salute to Wasim Bhai finally for pointing out selfish approach out loud!

The worst thing about today's match was that no one walked up to Usama to console him when he looked stone dead after dropping that catch. It was painful to watch! This single instance showed this Pakistani team's lack of professionalism or big match experience. Thank you Pavilion team for this wonderful show. Love from India ❤

Virat kohli is guy who alone overshadows the whole generations of cricketers of this era ❤

We’ve seen in IPL 50-60 runs being scored in the last 3-4 overs in Bangalore! If Pakistan would’ve just continued w/ a partnership and taken the game deep, thy could’ve definitely won the match! Also it’s High time Babar needs to perform in pressure situations! ✅👍

Aaj to dil dil pak bhi bajaya tha phir kese haar gye 😂😂

Shoaib Malik perfect analysis on strike rotation. That takes intent and practice. It needs running fitness. This is where Virat nails it. Endurance to last 100 overs.

This victory dedicated to atrocities committed on the playing field in Pakistan, K.S. Srikant whose shirt was torn-off on the pitch by an intruder, also Kapil Dev who was slapped by an intruder, Indian hockey team (in Karachi) was thrown also sorts of things and also a very huge banner which read "Indian Dogs get out of...". BCCI never made any issue out of this, they should never have gone again to Pakistan. Finally thanks to almighty ALLAH for the victory yesterday. As for the Indian team they have earned victory where it was required, doesn't matter if you do not qualify.

Had Dhoni been there in place of Iftikhar , they would have lost by 10 runs. Thats how dhoni used to play with our emotions calmly. His awareness was top notch.

Malik has improved so much as an analyst. Great to see

Respect for the host for keeping it real and a professional discussion! Absolutely enjoy the daily analysis by this panel, informative, professional and needed. Thank you!

Why are the replay of the shots only screenshots and not video?

A good show. Dont watch matches. But i like this brainstorming by experts. Definitely the frustrating of loss was visible . But still they analysed the game in a best way possible. Keep doing the good work.

Usually they’re quite neutral while discussing, but MANY POINTS MISSED TODAY BECAUSE IT WAS PAKISTAN’s MATCH. Usually a good panel and good discussion but today because of Pakistan’s match, they didn’t focus on Cummins as a captain, his bowling changes, australias positivity despite being under pressure, captain taking charge, they also dropped easy catches ETC.

It is surprise to see .....these senior players are avoiding to criticize Babar and Rizwan who clearly have been observed in so many matches play selfishly

I m from India..🇮🇳, fan of you guys. The logic and reasonable analysis you did, excellent...👍👍

I am from India but continuously watch this show . I found this is a genuine panel which discusses everything in a good way .

Difference in standard of fielding between the sides was the main factor for Pakistan's defeat.

Major issue is after a long long time Pakistan is facing full strength top sides. So skill and temperament wise we see a clear difference.

Misbah ul haq is true sarcasm. He said dew nahi thi jub tak achhe khele, dew aai toh fisal gaye 😅😅

I truly believe if shoaib Malik is the fielding coach, the team can make a lot of difference. Not only with fielding but it will also improve their style of play again spin bowling. Shoaib Malik can handle these 2 departments extremely well.

Boundaries Today Mid On - 75m Mid Off - 77m Covers - 66m Straight - 79m Bhai This is Normal Boundaries not Small Boundaries. 60m ke niche ya aas paas usko Small bolte. Asian Games main thi waisi

I am really liking your honest opinions and solid discussions.. i am from india but i always watch your post match show..your video highlights get stuck..please show footage during discussions

Being from India, I love this show (and a lot of Indians might not like it but please appreciate the goodness), I don't watch the local Indian shows for example the one hosted by VGup who have 3-4 people with no cricketing experience talking random shit. Fakhar hosts this so well with the 4 cricketing legends, especially our fav, the great Wasim Akram....keep this going...totally enjoy the conversation

Gone those days when we Indians use to admire and respect Pak Cricket players. All current cricketers are only hyped. It's sorry to see this where we use to have Imran, Wasim, Saeed, Waqar and all

Pakistan had the easier matches upfront and got those 4 points. Now they are getting to the tougher opponents and not looking like beating any of them. It will only be a downhill from now

I liked this show and hoping your expert advice will help Pakistan cricket team to do better in Future. I can see you guys are providing similar opinions to your team(which is absolutely correct), which are given to Indian cricket team at the time when our Indian cricket team was at it’s low. I hope your opinions will improve your team for sure and we will sure see India Pakistan quality match again ! But I am getting fan of this show, overall it’s a good show!

Wasim Bhai got no sabar with viewer questions 😂

Fantastic job by the Panel. I only watch these guys to catch up on what's going on since I can barely watch half a game (including Ind vs. Aus) given the timing of the games relative to my city. I like Misbah's take followed by Wasim and then the list goes down.

Warner and Marsh collectively scored 284 runs. Third highest score was 25 extras. Which means their remaining 8 batters barely got 60 runs on the board. Highly concerning for Aussies!! Pak on the flipside had timid approach from ball one. World class bowlers with no brains or variation. Except few names no one had a plan to cross the line, particularly Babar who never leads from the front. So, both teams of today have very slim chances of qualifying to semis unless there are more upsets on the horizon.

The biggest problem of pakistan is fear of defeat....they hesitate to hit the ball. I am sure any big team in the world would score more if they did not lose any wicket in 25 over

I am an Indian and this show is the best analysis of Cricket in the world

I have seen this match very carefully. I feel both team were equally weak in terms of Bowling, fielding and very fragile middle order. The difference was in terms of who batted first and then how many runs at least one player contributed since Aussies has two century maker where as Pak has none. If any one or two would have made a century from Pakistan then it could have been a different scenario. This can't be Australia which is known for supremacy and have been seeing Pak from 90's can only sing Jane Kahan gaye wo Sarjah ke din jab Hum Indians rote the ki ye log itna accha kyun khelte hain. 2011, we win WC with latt patt types but this time we will be winning with Supremacy since this Indian team is looking very much like SriLankan team in WC1996 as hungry, fierce, complete and confident.

Teams are applying a theory that attacking Pakistan Pace bowlers from the start is the best form of defense. The attacking mode of Kushal Mendis, Rohit Sharma, David Warner and Mitchel Marsh. No doubt pakistan pacers are very fast but teams may be thinking that using that extra pace in the first power play is more counter productive. Maybe pakistan need to tone down some pace and apply spinner in the power play too.

Misbah & Shoaib malik rightly summed up the intent,Approach,mindset,Bravery & Attacking cricket of Babar Ajam & his Best frand Imam(Nephew of Grape Injimam)

Pakistan badly needs an all rounder like Abdur Razzak whi can bowl smart slow cutters and bat like a floater at any position from 3 till 8. They seriously lack such a player in current set up. Pakistan should have promoted Iftikhar at number 3 today, missed the trick

11:20 WASIM AKRAM talking on HASSAN ALI batting style make me died of laughing 🤣🤣🤣🏃‍♂️

Great analysis by all our legends! Running the show really well Fakhr-e-Alam. Everyone is very polite to each other, love the vibe.

wasim akram is a true legend...respect from all cricket lovers from India

Best show ,ever ,keep up the great work by all time greats of the game in company with the best possible Anchor ,Love from India

They are saying if aus were batting second then warner, marsh wouldn't have scored 100s..this is the worst reason, Devon convey scored 150plus after doing 50 ovr wicket keeping, KL also same against aus, also Virat n rohit.. rizwan and shafiq also chased down 345 aftr 50 ovr fielding..so batting 1st is not reason, banglore is chasing ground so batting 2nd is good decision, it is totally game awareness n intent from pak which lacks...

Superb Analysis, I hope Pak team is also watching these legends talking about how they can improve . ..or if they are watching these episodes. .. then they are not focusing on improving advices.. but they are seeing them as just a criticism..😮

How can you question wasim akrams game awareness...he is the best cricketing minds around...he is one of the coolest...love you wasimbhai you will always be the best for me..ye Shaheen starc aate rahenge....you are the pinacle

If you see shoaib malik's innings of 2005 -2008 .. you will understand he used to snatch away games while chasing by simply rotating strike and scoring over 70 runs effortlessly.. what he is speaking is his genuine recommendation, which he used to follow as well..

Waseem Akram is the best analyst as a cricketer I have ever seen after Imran Khan. He should focus on being an analyst even in series' .

I wonder what the panelists thought of the Vice Captain. What’s their role on the team in general and today’s match? Babar is having captaining challenges. How is the VC helping? Any footage of that during the game?

I watch this show for Wasim Akram only. The best of all.

The funny part is that talking those who did not do anything at their time😂

Malik's game analysis were spot on but maxwell is not an easy bowler. He bowls regularly. He took 4 wickets against india in the home series which happened last month. Also in ipl he has taken many crucial wickets.

I had been watching almost all your program since start of the CWC-23. I m surprised that nobody is given the answer why n how come Indian spinners and fast bowlers are bowling so effective and superb bowling in Indian dead pitch and condition? Why can't others teams are effective in spin and fast bowlings. I know the exact tricks and techniques of all bowlers of Indian bowling in Indian pitches and conditions. But I wanted to know with our great great cricketers, their opinion and take on above dilemma. Please include my question in #askthepavilian. I shall be grateful. A die heart cricketer and lover. ❤🇵🇰👍💪👌

I am really enjoying the debate in your show. Don't be depressed, Pakistan still has a lot of talented players. I am from Kolkata, India. I wish your team all the best for future

The way Shoaib Malik explained the role & skills of the finisher - spot on.

It's a lesson to learn to all captains. Never put good batting side to bat first in good batting wicket. Agar bada score lag gya to chase nahi hoga ek to ye wc ka game hai isme pressure hota h plus dew itna bada factor nahi hoga 20 over baad aati h tab tak you lose early wickets and game over

Over all Pakistan team lacks the modern day approach of cricket... every team has an opener who could blast even Afghanistan has Gurbaaz, Bangladesh has litton, India has Rohit, England has Malan, SA has de cock

Wasim is spot on about Haris. "6 ball length pe daal ke dikha de", without playing long form domestic cricket. Longer the format, stronger the gulf of quality gets exposed. He is just a slightly more disciplined Umran malik.

Such a Nice show, no melodrama no nonsense. Quality discussion.

Watched the game live yesterday in Bengaluru sitting just below the Hawkeye camera- This is such a talented bunch of Pak cricketers - Saud, Shafique, Babar, Afridi, Ifthikar..all played with great flair compared to the Aussies who were just using brute power..truly a cricket connoisseurs delight- but these were the main differences that cost them the game: 1. Mental toughness - big match temperament- will come with better exposure 2. Ability to adapt to conditions - playing straight rather than across the line, pace bowlers should have gone for variations rather than raw pace - learn from Bumrah.! 3. Team spirit - on the field demeanours - play with a smile , encourage each other, bring positive vibes, energy, learn to relax - Rizwan was trying.. but need others to chip in- learn from Kohli or Pat or Van der Merve!..

Pakistan was in the game till the 38th overs and they fought back well. If they could have negated the Zampa threat and avoided losing the wickets in hurry they had a big chance

And last for Pakistan fans plz don't demolished your team your team is best plz support because apne to apne hote h

These guys are really discussing things in detail. Keep it up..

As a Indian, I was really hoping for Pakistan to win today. As wasim mentioned, ifthikar should have stayed on and not tried wrong shot selection against zampa.

First DRS was fantastic 😅 Great review and Great fielding too … well done Pakistanis 😂

मैने काफी दिन पेहले बोला था की, पाकिस्तानी सूट मे जच नहीं रहे है करके! indian subcontinent मे हमने कूर्ता पजमा, शर्ट और स्मार्ट जैकेट etc अच्छा लगता है! अभी का पेहणावा हमारी तेहजीब, परंपरा से मेल खाता दिख रहा है. Thanks for taking feedback in positive stride. Earned a follower you guys!!

Right now most knowledgeable and unbiased panel all are very good and Wasim Akram Sir Is really awesome 👍

I do not get such technical analysos on any of the indian shows... as an indian i wait for thisnshow..please continue sharing this trchnical analysis as u do.. thak you🎉

Chasing 360+ if openers played 120 balls between them and made 120 runs then the game was lost there and then. It's as simple as that.

Pakistan should make Wasim sir , mishbah sir and Malik bhai the head coaches .. The analysis of these trio is sensible someone from Pakistan end and they can really change and save pakistan cricket ..sorry to say but I am watching. Cricket and matches of Pakistan team but there is no zeal in your current team which was there in 1990 to 2015 era .. I am Indian.. it's doesn't matter about the political scenarios between two countries but as an asian we want always the asian team to win when it comes clashes against European countries

Nice show , wonderfully Anchored by Fakhrji ..I hv been fan of Pakistan cricket . Dangerous Unpredectable Pakistan team ...So much reqd for survival of cricket ... Current team has to jack up there performances . Horses for courses policy need to be adopted .No blame game ...Just give 100% & perform to best .

Great show and to the point analysis. I watch it for Misbah and Wasim. Love from India 🇮🇳

26:30 - 27:00 the stage was clearly set to discuss the loopholes in captaincy , Moin Khan and Shoaib Malik were on point regarding the toss decision and captain giving confidence to the bowlers, even the host realized it. But it was masterfully changed by Misbah ul Haq, by focusing on individual performances of the bowlers. Him and Wasim are discussing the tailenders batting technique of tailenders for 5mins ffs. Misbah will always be a boot polisher becuase he needs a role regularly in PCB unlike Moin Khan and Shoaib Malik. He clearly talks about selfishness approach of the batsmen and it clearly shows who are the culprits. Arguments like these are not discussed further on, because people like Misbah don't want to say bad things because he has to face him tomorrow and save his job. Nobody discussed the batting technique of your self proclaimed KING who has been holding the top spot for 3 years by stat padding against "C" and "D" teams, until there was a question at the end which was perfectly answered by Malik. Misbah avoided that answer too, because he's even scared to highlight which Babar and his so called group wont like it. Just like the two so called commentators avoid perfectly in the com box.

Not sure why less than a million subscribers to this channel. It's way better than most of the Pakistani youtubers who blabber. Such respected game experts with such insight. All cricket enthusiasts should subscribe

I am from India and I am really impressed with your descent and unbiased analysis...

In 2day's match Shaheen Afridi has taken 5 wickets, but not in the initial overs. We all know that how good the openers of Aussie's given the start. Moving forward Zampa he took 3 wickets at a very crucial time, which was the turning point (to be honest, may be hard to digest). This what lacks in Pak team today. Love from Hyderabad, India ❤️
