Chettan has come, Chettan has come, Chettan has come to do the work. Okay, everyone, once again, welcome back to Champions Watch, brought to you today by Chettan. Sanju Samson, personally, a lot of people are talking nonsense on social media. You can consider today's show as sponsored by Sanju Samson. One of my favorite players, we mentioned him on the show itself, he should play brilliantly, he should hit a 100. It's a bit short of 100, but what a day, Chetta, what a day it has turned out to be. What do you think about this day? Beatock, Messi, Messi, what a day. India is going to the semi-finals with a composed chase. They said it would be like this, 220 runs, but bowling couldn't defend it. You guys have also made a lot of mistakes. They hit Scotland hard. They are a quality team, South Africa hit them hard, South Africa. Today India hit them hard. If England had played proper cricket, they would have won against England too. Okay. I'll say one thing. If you want to summarize India now, shall we summarize it in about 40 seconds? Do it, do it. I'm just looking for our live questions, I can pick a question from there. I'm looking. You sing, you listen, you are the one, I have to teach, you have to listen. >> Should I sing? I have to come and sing. >> After I finish singing, if it's correct, you repeat it. >> Okay, okay. >> Now the Indian batsman says, "Uncle, you gave it to me, hit it. Just one thing, will your uncle come like this? Will he come? To hit a six, my eyes, my eyes. He hit a six, it went to the roof. Then the match is gone, it's for you. Oh, uncle wants it, uncle, uncle, bowl it. Hit it. Just one thing, your uncle will give it to you, right? Six, my eyes, my eyes." With this team, with this bowling, how will you defend? I'm asking something I don't know. I posted a tweet. Okay, before this, he has lost eight out of 10 bilateral series. Among those, he won one against Ireland. Okay, he won against Ireland, then he won against Bangladesh. Then they have lost six series out of 10 bilateral series. After that, the result of 10 bilateral series Test matches, I don't need to tell you. How do you think this team will progress? What, they fought well in the World Cup, they showed great character in this World Cup. Whose character did you show? Don't talk to me about that nonsense. West Indies needs some change. West Indies needs some management. Otherwise, you'll have to keep saying this about everyone. Kaniyan, which I also said, it's correct, that's it. Super, you said it. Sanju rocked. Hey, one thing stood out today. Before I came to this question, it was Sanju's composure. I haven't seen it before. He might have hit any number of 100s, any number of 1000s, any number of big scores anywhere. This has to be the knock of his life. Sanju Samson, the true star is born today. That is, what composure, beautifully carved. They say in this, you know what my favorite shot is today? A six over the cover. But that's not the favorite shot. Like they scoop out ice cream, like that, a perfect cover drive. He hit a four, just caressed it, like a pet. You say, "Like a sparrow kissing, I saw it." He just caressed it through the covers, it went flying. A four. That four is my shot of the day. Beatock, Sanju Samson, another one. He's asking something, but before coming to this question, you're unnecessarily talking about West Indies. As far as I'm concerned, an extraordinary fight. If anybody had told me that West Indies would take the game to the last over, that's their biggest achievement, I think. Because, as you say, with this bowling, how will they win? I'm asking you. It's easy to give our opinions like this. What other bowling should they bring? Tell me. What bowling is there in their country? Wait, wait, he's asking correctly. You, CPL, you are also a coach, what other bowling is there? Tell me, what bowling is there to bring from CPL? >> There's a lot. I can't do anything sitting here. >> Tell me four, four people. >> Why should I tell? Are they paying me? There are other people to pay. That's his job, to produce results. If asked, what will they do? Now, if they lose, what will they say? Now, they'll say they're building the team, and he'll say that in the press report. Greed, greed, when there's greed, then there's defeat. Even when working, every series, we might lose, but I'll still be the coach. When asked about the next tournament, Jayasuriya resigned the day after Sri Lanka didn't do well in the World Cup. That is, it's not about what you did, it's about what you are. You've been there for five years, the team hasn't qualified for the Champions Trophy, hasn't qualified for the 2023 World Cup. The reason you played the 2024 T20 World Cup is because you hosted it. Next year, you're going to play qualifiers for the 2027 World Cup, and you might not qualify. And sometimes, when you've been in a team for years and the team is not performing in any format, for the betterment of the team, you should say, "Someone, please take over, someone, please take this forward." I am the one who spent, who will not play for money. I don't care. I want to remain honest. At the bottom, yes, I know about honesty, everyone knows. Okay, Premkumar is saying, "Good in the clinical is that, as you are liking it very much, Premkumar." What Karan said is like that, like butter, scooped out. That's the point. That's the day. Indeed. That's it. Okay, let's not do this. Very interesting. Coming. How can he bounce back or will he play for the next match? Jaguar 8842, why should he drop? Who is going to rock the next match? He is the one. Who is going to rock? He is the one. Don't worry. This match, like Sanju, will be like that for him in the next match. Dropping catches is a common thing. Big game pressure. Abhishek Sharma's first ever World Cup knockout game, like a quarter-final. For Varun Chakravarthy, it's his first ever World Cup. Once again, it's his first ever World Cup. So, these things happen. We have won beyond that. What I liked was the composure. Coming back to the show's topic. Beatock, you talked about West Indies. I'll give you one point. You said you'd give 40 points. Okay, I've also followed CPL. Okay, don't give four points, just one. Okay, you're asking correctly. Are you paying me? Why should I give clues? That's a correct question. I'll give you just one point. Nicholas Pooran, the world's best T20 batter, isn't playing. Wait, let me finish. You answer for everyone. Nicholas Pooran, the world's best T20 batter. But wherever he goes, in the last two months, three months, he hasn't scored runs anywhere. Nicholas Pooran isn't playing the T20 World Cup. Sunil Narine only plays for KKR. He doesn't play in ICC tournaments. What can he do alone? There are a lot of internal problems there, right? >> Is that so? Who brought this Shamar Joseph to the world? He came to West Indies. How did he come? Wasn't he in West Indies before Shamar Joseph? Answer, please, brother. The viewers are watching. I know. You are the one going to West Indies. You are the one. You have all the information. Joseph, I saw him bowling in training shoes for four balls. After that, now there's someone who has a bigger head than me in the squad, Quintan Samson. He came into the West Indies team in six months. Didn't he play cricket before that, brother? He's only coming in now. Tell me, brother. The viewers are watching. I've been in West Indies for three months. I saw one person for two balls. My quality. >> Go and bring Darren Sammy. Go and bring Darren Sammy. He's asking me everything. It's out of syllabus. What can I do, Sammy? Come here. >> You asked. You are Sammy. You, you, what should you do? >> You have all the power. >> If Sammy comes, all the power is there. >> Ask Sammy. >> Not one Sammy, two Sammys. He's bigger than Darren Sammy. You have all the control. You have all the control to run the board. You have the power to select any player. You even have a stadium in your name in St. Lucia. When that's the case, I'm just a visitor. I'm a player who looks at who this player is every year. He's showing West Indies, showing Guyana. What is your job? Apart from that, scout talent. You say there are no bowlers, no bowlers. If there are no bowlers, bring them! I'll bring another Sunil Narine. Look at this year's CPL. I'll bring another Sunil Narine. That Sunil Narine will show West Indies. Don't question me. Whichever team I work for, I don't change that team. I'm someone who gets tattooed and works. >> Maro, Maro, Sokha, Sokha, Sokha, Maro. Madhavan Parsathi has asked a great question. The last elegant six hit on the leg side, four fielders were there on the leg side. He did it with ease. What does that have to do with Madhavan Parsathi? Super, very good. You've nailed it. What you're saying is correct. My shot of the day. Oh, a piece of butter, a slice. Oh, a slice of butter. Romario Shepherd hit a backward punch on the off side. That's the shot of the day. Oh, oh, he caressed it. Like they say, "Let it go, let it go." He just lightly sliced it. Not even a boundary, because there were two people on the off side, extra cover and point. He beat that fielder to the right. Nobody had any time to move. Ravi Bhai's favorite. He said he moved. It went like a shot, a four. Anyway, today he had the composure that Rohit and Virat had. Calm, composed, and calculative. Never seen, never seen this before. This is the new mark. And Tilak, at 5, and the team, the best. Tilak. >> I told you that beforehand. Many people asked why you're making Tilak Varma bat at seven. Know one thing. Where to make anyone bat. Tilak. Tilak, unfortunately, caught a great catch. If Edmeyer hadn't caught it, the match would have been over in the 18th over. Tilak is a top-class player. I'll say one thing. He's asking questions about Sanju Samson. I told you about Axar Patel in the last game. He's accepting it, accepting it. Axar Patel gave a beautiful explanation. Yes, he'll accept it. Because if they drop him in the next match. Like a player like Sanju, I'm saying it again and again, from the beginning. Skill levels. What God has given. Not many can. All you need to say is, "You play." I'm telling Abhishek too. I'm telling Abhishek again. Skill levels are very high. He's a bit low on confidence. If you think you need to break that confidence, if you drop him in the next match, Abhishek will be lost. Abhishek's skill. India's combination should not be changed. That's the absolute bottom. Tilak will be the number one player all the time. But you. >> Tilak shouldn't even be discussed. Because Tilak has performed in high-pressure situations. A match against Pakistan is not a big deal. Performing is not a big deal. Prashant B is asking, "In this tournament, should the World Cup factor be like to be eliminated and give the same face?" Don't change it. Play. Play. Afghanistan, Africa, it's a day. So please understand. Today, even if they lose, people will watch. They will definitely watch. We should. This is a very, very wrong opinion from Venkatesh. I don't think it should be changed. It can happen to anyone. I think he has. But I think let's. The last 20 innings, he has taken wickets in every match. It can happen to anyone. Even an elephant can slip. He's also human. Okay, Bharathkumar is asking, "But he can hit in the spaces. But when he..." What, brother? But. >> From the beginning, I've been saying that in my key performance indicators. Okay, this is a bilateral series, World Cup. Game awareness is different. It doesn't come separately. You're at 10 overs. If you hit a six on the first ball of 10 overs, what will I immediately say? Don't go for a shot in the zone. I'll keep saying that before the net over. That's why the change. But between bilateral and. I'll say one more thing. A half-tracker. It should be lifted and hit for a six. Speaking of Abhishek Sharma, it was a good ball to hit. He hit it back. Okay, it was collected. I thought it was collected. Within 30 yards. If Hetmyer had caught it. It was a good shot. I won't say this shot selection is wrong. But what I would have done is, it's 17 runs. Suddenly, I would have run a single like this. I could have done that. Come, put it in the next game. >> Abhishek Sharma needs to develop a sweep shot. If he does that, all these problems will be solved. That's all I have to say. Nothing else to say. Abhishek Soccer has asked a question. Sampath, a question. Sampath's question, bring it back, producer. Abhishek Soccer has also asked. For the cause, he is asking. But we can look at that. Good year. Abhishek. And the second point. They are waiting in line. Like they are waiting in queue. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, etc. So it's all set for a while. For now, let's focus on the now and not focus too far. Ah, can we bring back that question from Sampath? Super question. That's a super question for Beatock. If you bring back Sampath's question, we can ask it. But as you said, Hetmyer's short ball into the body, wicket. Yes, bowl it straight, bowl it tight. Line it tight. He would have hit it. It was an inside edge. Usually, he hits that and takes it to the boundary. Today, he didn't take it to the boundary. One second. I've been talking about the show. My producer sent me an AC. Put on the AC. Yes, no, no, that's not a problem. Put it on. Right. Sampath had asked a good question. Beatock, the question was, "Varun Chakravarthy is very dangerous." He asked a question. I'll tell you one thing, sir. Do you know what the score was for West Indies in seven overs? Asha, seven overs. >> I know. They were 56 in eight overs. 51 in seven overs. >> No, I'm asking because Varun Chakravarthy was injured. That's my question. Yes, he should have bowled in the later overs. >> Okay, he didn't bowl. What are they thinking? They should finish with Shimron Hetmyer before Axar Patel. That's because wickets didn't fall in two or three overs. Then, if Axar Patel couldn't be used, then Hardik Pandya also got hit. They gave bowling to Shivam Dube, thinking he would hit. They gave it to Axar Patel. Varun Chakravarthy was coming. Both batsmen were settled. Now, Roston Chase, watching this episode, says, "Hey, hey, if I bat first, I'll score runs, not just when I chase." And today he played well. So, when Varun Chakravarthy comes, what is the strike rate? As far as I'm concerned, I'm saying West Indies, what did I tell you? 192 winning score. Okay. How much did they score? They scored above 28. West Indies bowling. The score is 28. So, who took the strike rate? Varun Chakravarthy in the first over. Also, you saw, the pitch was a bit slow. One ball, you're saying again. It was a bit slow. But there's a 15-run difference. But he didn't do anything, didn't do anything. Varun Chakravarthy is coming. He's going to call the opposition to the shop. Next match. >> Come to the shop. He's going to call them to the shop. Another person has asked, Satish Sridhar. "Baton, the West Indies are starting to keep him. He was slow. But I feel compromised. His USP." What, what, Beatock? >> You're the one who's easily saying it every time. How is he? Wherever he bats, where does he try to hit? He tries to hit on the off side. So, if you don't have a sweep, you become a one-dimensional player. Not about decoding. You have a release shot. This is where he hits. Maximum. He comes down and where does he hit? He tries to hit straight. He tries to hit at long-off. Or he tries to hit at extra cover with a close stance. If you don't have a sweep, it's easy for you to do against a left-arm spinner, a leg spinner, an off spinner, any spinner. You've beautifully nailed it. Only if you master a sweep shot can you avoid being decoded. You've clearly. All the critics suddenly start applauding. Ah, this is why we watch. This is why we watch. We watch. Sorry to say, and a lot of fans will join cricket by watching our show. The one thing that hasn't changed is like Sanju, Sanju's trigger hasn't changed. It's the same. But I don't think West Indies had the capability to push in those areas. On that particular part, they don't have bowlers who can hit the length and bowl at the body. I want to say for the next match, when it comes to advantage, Archer. I'll tell you, Sanju, my boy. I'm telling you here. What I said last time has happened. Manifest it again. Come in, scoop it up. Caress it gently. Let that ball fall into the stands. Otherwise, move and take a single. Just keep taking singles. They'll come later. Many bowlers will tear them apart. Just watch that over and hit. Just hit the balls that are there to be hit. That's all I'll say. For the next match. Okay. Another beautiful question from our regular question asker. Sachin Upadhyay, do you know Sachin Upadhyay? He asks regularly. You can't see the display picture or video, but I can read the message. No, he has a display picture. He's standing with his arms crossed. I don't know if it's him or his son. But anyway, great batting display. Punished others except SKY. SKY needs to show up in big games in World Cups. One and potentially two more for him to show up. AB needs to come down a bit and adapt and play. He's in full advice mode. What are your thoughts? >> What he's saying is correct. SKY played beautifully. Now everyone's problem is that. I posted a tweet. Now you're saying, "Fake, brother, fake." But the truth is, a warrior replies, "Don't talk too much about someone who scored after 13 innings. What will he do in two more matches?" Single-handedly. Shall I ask a question? Shall I ask a question? Tell me the handle of the person who replied to that tweet. Let's see if he's a real person or someone campaigning for this. That's what I'm saying. Beyond a certain level, I'm asking out of ignorance. What kind of innings has he played? You know all the responsibility. And a next-level message has come. Arjun, Arjun. 24. Scary. Top 5: Ayush, Sanju, Ruturaj, Dubey, Bravis. This year, this year, I'm telling you. Six armies. Brought to you by Haddock. Chasing the sixth title. 200 confirmed. It's 200 this time. It's 200 at Chepauk. That's the baseline score. When teams come to Chepauk, they come with a bang. They've already started practicing. 10 people have already started. Urvil Patel has played. Sarfaraz has hit sixes. Where else do we need to fit him? You said it correctly, Arjun. Arjun. This is a super point. A great point. Another question has come. Beatock, "Could Alex Hales have stopped the runs when he was bowling?" After that, "Big lesson: have composure and be prepared. Opportunity will always come, even if it's late." Beatock sir, and Ash bro, please talk on this. After that, what? "6 cups for 7." Something is written. What is that? Okay, okay. I don't know what this is. If anyone knows, please tell me. What is "6 cups for 7"? Oh, he's also saying that. Haddock, ICC title loading, he's saying that. Maybe, maybe, maybe. For 7, I understand. I understand now. I understand now. Okay, right. Beatock, coming back to this debate. Many people are saying that what you said about Darren Sammy was unfair, a real fight. Finals at Ahmedabad. India clearly has a weakness with this big ground. What do you feel? I feel there's a bit of an issue, but I think India will win. Strong favorites. Strong favorite. Rahul Shanmuganathan. Yes. >> What if India had lost today? As far as I'm concerned, 196. I put 192 as the average winning score. But West Indies bowling. My algorithm was correct. What if India had lost by seven runs? India should have fought. What would you say, guys? I'll answer. I'll answer. >> If it were up to me, tell me. You guys are asking me. I'm just one person. >> We can't ask others. That's why we're asking you. If India had lost by nine runs. >> I'll tell you. My God, you're a valuable man. What a guy. First. Okay, look, I'll tell you one thing. Even if India had lost, say by seven runs. People would have gone ballistic. Okay. But I've played cricket. You're still in cricket environments. If they lose by seven runs, what will Gambhir do? Will he win the match by hitting an inside-out boundary? As a coach, he can only prepare. Why, see, for that matter, Sri Lanka has lost. What process has Sanath Jayasuriya put in for Sri Lanka? Is the process on track? We should check that. Otherwise, what's the use of going by results? Now, now, with new people, can putting an eighth-number spinner do anything? Nothing can be done. Brother, I'm telling you again. I'm telling everyone. A coach is only a friend to a hero. The coach is not a hero. The players are heroes. If the hero is doing well, he can help. That's all he can do. He can help well, he can provide good preparation, he can give good tactics. Do you agree or not? You are also an analyst. You have also been a coach. Do you agree or not? The player has to execute what you teach. That's your. You have a strength. At the end of the day, is there an unknown in that? >> Can we make people like Nelson Mandela, Mahatma Gandhi, Jacob Zuma as coaches? They'll help well. What's your job then? You have to get the best out of a particular team, a particular individual. You're taking two years. Okay, I'll support that. Even if India had lost today, Gambhir, Gambhir. But if you've been a coach for five years, you haven't won the Champions Trophy. You've been taken seriously in bilateral series. Oman, Nepal have gone ahead of you. After that, coming here, beating Scotland, Spain, Namakkal, what's this called, Kothalankudi, and saying we've won a tournament without any justification. That's what I'm asking again. When did you last have the mind to say, "Well done, India. Well done, Gambhir"? You won't say that. Because Gambhir is a scapegoat. I don't even think about that. I'm not impressed. I'm not impressed by anything. What I feel. Given the stats. 10 bilateral T20 series, eight losses. Last 10 bilateral ODI series, six losses. Oman away. Last 10 bilateral Test series, haven't won a single one. They came with a record. 27 all out. After that, didn't qualify for the Champions Trophy, didn't qualify for the 2023 World Cup. I'm sorry, but at the bottom. That is, every Indian cricket fan has two favorite teams, apart from India. One is South Africa, and the other is West Indies. Okay. I'm putting forward a very vital question. Because I like West Indies cricket very much. We've spoken about this during Test series. Let's look at West Indies' history. 75, 79 World Cup winners. They went to the finals in '83. India beat them in the final. After that, they came here and gave us a good thrashing in the Test series. They gave us a good beating for that loss. But ever since then, West Indies has lost its edge in ODIs. In Test cricket too, in the later stages, from the 2000s, their impact has diminished. Likewise, when T20 cricket started, West Indies was the superpower. Because they had full power. They were fully built in terms of physique. The players were huge. They were smashing. They had the edge of power. My question is, the moment other teams started approaching that power component tactically, West Indies has a history of falling behind. Is it because they don't approach it tactically that they are falling behind the group? Because there's a history in that, right? Obviously, you're saying it very correctly. I'm just saying one thing. Some are successful with what I did. Okay. These two. Now you're asking a question. He's only been working for 18 months. If that's the case, then two. Now he'll say, Rajini will say, "If you ask for my name from this Senthamarai, even the child in the womb will shut its mouth." If you ask for Alex Pandey's name, even his mother's mouth will shut. I would have shut it too. When you imagine from the bottom. But I'm telling you again. By all means. When you say, you should put some advice into cricket. Saying such opinions and criticisms is easy. You're watching from one day. You're watching from one day. West Indies. I. What am I?
As a clerk, I am Level 3 Certified Coach, Level 2 Qualified Umpire. I have been here for 25 years. I am an Electronics Engineer. I am a Microsoft Certified Software Developer. I have worked with the Indian Hockey team. I have worked with Rafael Nadal. Give me a chance, I will work for one year. If I don't produce results, you can keep me. I will come back. Because, as Rajinikanth sir says, I don't work based on what I hear, I work based on what I see.
It's a tremendous passion. Today, they say Artificial Intelligence is everything. Resumes are prepared on it. Job interviews are given on it. It seems enough to take this particular clip and send it directly to West Indies Cricket. This itself will give tremendous strength to the resume. A strength update has come, adding strength to strength. Okay, next question. CrickSwat Shiva, what is it? They are laughing, look at that. Vignesh, sorry Vignesh, can you laugh, man? It's wrong for you to do all this. Someone is speaking their heart out. You all think of him as your brothers and sisters. He is speaking his heart out like this. If you laugh at him like this, it's very wrong. It's a heartfelt cry. You shouldn't do this.
Okay, how tough is it for players like [unintelligible] to handle themselves when they prove themselves many times, like he proves time and again, 100 again, but still people, management, just for it. Easy. Not laughing, crying, tears of joy. Oh, sorry, sorry, I thought wrong of you. Vignesh, I thought wrong of you. This question has been asked by CrickSwatvi Shivsai. Shivsai, I will tell you one thing. I have also played Indian cricket to some extent. If you play Indian cricket, there will be pressure. You have to keep proving yourself again and again. If you prove yourself once, you can't play for four or five years. The competition is such that, understand, just like what Sanju is doing, another person will be brought in. I repeat, again and again, one person will get four chances, another will get five chances, you will get only two chances. You can take it however you want. But that's all. No one gets more than those extra chances. They will get back for various reasons. Someone might not like them. Someone's role might be different. Middle-order batsmen and finishers are always given extra games. It's a tougher job to fill, whereas opening the batting in T20 cricket is surprisingly easier, and there are many such. It's like supply and demand. For the finisher's role, demand is high, supply is low. For the opener's role, demand is low, supply is high. That's why you always have to be on top of the game.
"Feedback should be performance coach for the Indian team," Arun Kumar, did you see? Everyone is bringing you good news along with tears of joy. "Feedback, are you going to be the coach for Pakistan?" he is asking. I am not going to post this question. I am not going to post this question because they will get you into trouble. I saw last time you said something accidentally. That person could be anyone. Why DSP? What is it? DSP? Even Vijayakumar. Even Vijayakumar. I said it generally, and they made a song out of it and made fun of you. Everyone asks, "Will India win again?" "Will they play like that?" "Will they speak against India?" Speak now, speak now.
"If I say all this, they will leak it there and you will go. But what is the worth? We will beat New Zealand and South Africa in the semi-finals, brother." "I also thought, I also thought it's best to beat South Africa and New Zealand." Anyway, the next question, CrickSwat is finished. Vinod, who took everyone, that's also finished. Okay, all questions are finished. Now, producer, put up the other questions. "Guyana Warriors, give a hand, Prasanna sir, trophy, feed, Baho, West Indies team, put it up, put the petition." Who should make the decision, who is the West Indies cricket coach? Tell me. Everyone is gathered there. "Feed, a bit of Super King." "I should be Ashwin's head coach, I should be his assistant coach. This is my wish."
"Hey, don't just go around saying anything and leaving. This is how it happens. I told you." "Hey people, I will clarify one thing to all of you." "No, no, now my dialogue, now my dialogue is, don't steal screen space here. Now my dialogue is, I will tell you one thing about Feed. He will call me brother, he will call me anything, he will call me Ashwin. He will call me everything. Until now, he has never done anything I asked him to do. I haven't asked for much. Sleep on time at night, take care of your body. He doesn't even do that properly most of the time. And now you all have joined and are giving him this, and you are stabbing me. It's like I taught him something, but he won't listen to anything. That is, that dialogue, right? Once it goes beyond a certain stage, I won't even listen to myself. Feed is the brand ambassador for that."
"I still have that pain, that agony. Punjab Kings 2019, that ghost should leave my mind. My only wish is that. Now I am not chasing anything, but I want to win. I want to win the World Cup and the IPL. This is my wish. This is my true manifestation. Honestly speaking, 'Koyyala, who is calling me?' Have you seen that movie? The future Prime Minister, Livingston, will lift a movie. In that, 'Koyyala, who is calling me?' he calls. Are you rocking like that? Are you different? I am fortunate to have a friend like you. Look at Sukas, see the respect, see the fear. Sukas, Budges, Counter-Jokes."
"Now, where will Jax try to hit? Giving room, correctly, correctly. Kaiyas, first ball, scoring area, but and, correctly. So what will I do? From the crease, I will hit him on the middle stump, leg stump, and I will say it again. He will hit it straight up. Many times, in that deep square leg, 'Alwa, Alwa, Adi, me, me,' it will fall straight into my hands. So now, now we said, when Shimron Hetmyer comes, Arshdeep Singh should not be given the ball. Pandya and he should bowl. He hit a six somehow. One thing you all should think about is, if we give a plan, it won't work on the first ball sometimes. You might get hit for a six by executing that plan. I have seen that too. But because of this particular technical aspect, if you bowl Jax inside, the next area is cover. He will hit a pick-up shot. His two strengths are, let me tell you one more thing, even if he doesn't hit the ball at the extra cover, it will go beyond 30. That bat swing is very beautiful. When the pick-up monster comes, how will I force him? He won't play the lap, you have that advantage. He won't play the lap, and he won't hit the back foot. If you bowl at his body, he will hit a pick-up shot. So, good length, 4 to 6 meters, a little wide, and if you force him into the flex shot, you have a massive chance of getting him out, either in deep wicket or deep square. Please, before I can go to break, what is his extent of using the ball effectively, I don't know. Because he is not a lot of left-handers. Will they bring him in earlier? We have W. As far as I know, I honestly didn't expect him to excel so much in the lower-order role. Very surprising. But the one thing that will really serve Jax well is the fact that he has played IPL at Mumbai. That's where he has played. That's his home ground. So, I think that is one thing that will help him. Secondly, he must have faced Bumrah a lot in the nets. So that will also be a big plus for him. However, I think against Varun Chakravarthy, the entire England batting lineup might be a bit hesitant. But that said, today Varun Chakravarthy bowled very short. Because I don't think he went very full. Jason Holder hit him off the stump. So, I hope that's what I'm saying, 'Hey uncle, bowl boldly. What's the worst that can happen? You'll get hit for a boundary. Bowl boldly, we'll see.' With that mindset. That question is a very old cliché. All commentators will say, once someone gets hit, the spinner should bowl a little slower. Varun Chakravarthy's average pace is a bit high. That's his natural bowling. Today, I thought he might get hit, so he bowled a little short. It's a confidence issue. Someone should raise Varun to $2 million and tell him, 'You are the man, you are the god.' Lift him up for the next two days. I just hope he comes mentally for the casual curve. Is it a model of starting and big finish, or should he stick to the game plan? He won't agree to anything. Feed, whatever you say, because there are anchors in the team. Anyone can anchor. Sanju also anchored beautifully today. So, I am not parting with the belief. He should hit boldly, he should hit. Super. Pre-seed sense. Okay, raise your hand, tell me."
"No, we are talking too much about Sanju. Two or three people have done well. If we don't honor them, today's match will be very difficult." "Hey, actually, I will tell you one point. Arshdeep Singh gave 43 runs in four overs, but his 19th over was a big turning point. He broke the momentum of the entire West Indies innings. He had given around 38 runs in three overs. He bowled that over exceptionally well. So, in my view, that one over by Arshdeep Singh, instead of saying he gave away so many runs, we should value that one over immensely. T20 cricket is all about such things." "Feed, music is my only hope. Feed, my toddler, uncle, uncle, hey, you scoundrel, you are talking about the boy. Tell me correctly about the two or three people I'm talking about. Bumrah's over, shall I write Tamil Nadu for it? Varun's over, for googlies, shall I buy Kannada Nadu for it? Sam's innings, shall I ask for Kerala? Tilak's cameo, shall I ask Rajasthan for it? Order, teach, the World Cup is yours." "Bumrah, the way he bowled, many people don't talk about it because Samson stole the show. Varun's break was also crucial. Tilak, some people see it as, 'He just gave away a few runs and left.' He must have hit it. How it took a leading edge, I don't know. Everyone contributed, but yes, Sanju Samson has to be the hero of the day. Sanju Samson, hero of the day. Tilak Varma also put on a super show. It was a good show. Because in the middle, Roston Chase gave three runs in three overs in one over. After that, Shamar Joseph bowled a good over. After that, Tilak broke it. That momentum. Suddenly, Roston Chase got angry. He hit a six against spin. So, Tilak played superbly. But credit must be given. That over was the third over to be a turning point for West Indies." "What is the turning point? Anyone can give an expensive over in T20 cricket. Arshdeep Singh bowled decently in the power play. He gave runs in the third over, yes. But he came back. After giving away runs in the third over, the fourth over, the 19th over. If West Indies had scored 20 runs in that over, the 19th over, 20th over, 220, it would have been tricky. 220 wouldn't have been that easy."
"Okay, the manifestation has come. Yellow, yellow, heart, yellow, Chola, a fruit seed inside, like that. Manifesting Varun to run through the England side and win for England, to blame the pitch for it, to run through. For him, he is our man. Arjun, super. You can come to our show one day. He would have already started. He will send nine people from the town to watch the pitch. At the shop, you can see, they roll the pitch seven times. It's wet. But because of AI, they won't bother that much. As a CSK fan, Raina fan, my true manifestation. Head Coach Fleming, Batting and Fielding Coach Raina, Analyst Feed, Bowling Coach Hasna, Captain Dhoni, Assistant Fielding Coach Sridhar. It's a big wish. Karthik, Sandy, I understand your wish. You want to see everyone there as OGs. On that note, I will give you a small update. They have scheduled a 10-day schedule. CSK, I think from now on, he will be fully secretive as an inside informant this year. He is sitting there wearing that yellow dress. So, this time, you can confidently show him the snake movie. But that said, you are showing this snake movie to everyone. You showed it to me one day, then to someone else, then to Jadeja. Why are you showing everyone this snake, snake? I don't know. Should I make a movie and become a snake myself? Please don't do that. Nobody is interested in that. There is no need to do that. On that note, congratulations, Anirudh. You got that role. I saw it. Very happy for you. All the hard work that you put in over a couple of years. The true insider, and he got in. Supporting him. They have scheduled a 10-day schedule. Coaches have joined. 10 players have arrived. Urvil Patel, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ayush Mate, Thala have also arrived. Sarfaraz Khan, Ramkrishna Ghosh, Mukesh Choudhary, everyone has arrived for this 10-day schedule. Coaches haven't arrived. Coach, Thala, Fleming hasn't arrived yet. Eric Simmons is not coming. Michael Simmonds is not coming. But the question is, are these coaches managing? Next question, Pratap Premnath. Jos Buttler hasn't scored in the last 5 matches. That's it. Today CSK posted a video. Okay. Senior batsman and in critical ICC. Sachin, Gambhir, Yuvraj, Kohli, Rohit. What training, if any, is needed for youngsters so that pressure? Just trying to understand the kind of potential we can. Good question. There is only one solution to pressure. Learning by playing under pressure. That's the only solution to deal with it. And many players get it by playing it repeatedly. Not 1996 World Cup, Sachin played a phenomenal knock. Against Sri Lanka, he was run out at a crucial moment, and then India collapsed. From then on, by learning and learning and learning, Sachin was also able to produce in every World Cup. Gambhir has been a clutch player for India. 2011 World Cup, Dhoni gave the finishing touch, but Gambhir laid the foundation for it. 100% Yuvraj Singh, clutch player. 2007, 2011. Okay. Chetan Puli, Jerrin George, Aanu. Chetan Puli, Ash, and Feed. What is your manifestation for the semi-final against England? You yourself said England is our danger. What do you think? Tell me."
"Ash, we can review it correctly. I am very nervous because I said this before the tournament, that I am afraid of England. To be honest with you, I want India-South Africa final. I am very nervous about New Zealand. They might beat South Africa. I don't want either of these to happen. I want India-South Africa final. I am a little scared. I am even more scared of South Africa. So, let this nervousness subside. We are still in this high. We will preview India's win. We will do it in detail then. Okay, City Adhinara, leading to the role for the think in the hav. None of these are surprising. They have kept some players in the game. What have they said? If they get edges, they shouldn't go anonymously. If they get catches, edges, they shouldn't run around. The ball can be given some life on the pitch. If it spins well, it might stick in the wicket. No mistake. If they put good fevicol on the wicket and then put a layer and bowl the wicket, no. Let's bowl well. So, because ICC has done this, wickets have been cut. Even for the bowler, a chance. They have given a good chance to the bowler. I really love it. I even spoke to a big player. Without naming him, ICC tournaments are a bit like that on the pitch, aren't they? Isn't that fair? Isn't that appropriate? they said. Anyway, ambivalent. Dinesh, did you see Sanju's pre-match interview? You said every match playing for India is always pressure with competition. So, this match is like any other match. Yes, isn't that correct? Isn't that what he said? That is how it is supposed to be. Playing for India is always pressure, especially with a lot of talent. How to be calm, composed, live, present, like Sanju, and how to apply it in my profession? I can't deliver my capacity, and the pressure is weighing for input. Super question. Tell me."
"That is, the previous question, he said, 'Always pressure playing every game, there's always competition.' How do you mold a player? Competition is only against yourself. I don't think so. Yes, who are just breathing under your neck? If I am working in a team, and a player doesn't score for three matches, I will call him, 'Come, darling, let's have coffee,' and put my hand on his shoulder and say, 'What is your level? How far have you played? Do you know who your competition is? Do you think it's him? It's not him. Do you know who your competition is? I will show you the mirror. This is your competition. Can you be a better version of yourself? What you were yesterday, today?' If I say that, what will he say? 'I am improving myself. My coach has told me to improve myself.' 'Oh, he is behind me. If I don't score, he will come behind me.' 'Someone is waiting outside. He is going to come in.' 'Do I fear someone else coming? My place in sports is such that it could be taken.' So, the language Sanju should use is, 'Come with myself to see what I can deliver for India and how I can better myself from what I was yesterday compared to today.' That's the atmosphere I try to create with the boys I work with. So, there should be competition, but it's not with anyone else. Because when you see a mirror, when you walk up the next day, if you don't feel inspired by what you see in the mirror, 'Oh, that's a very correct point.' I just want to say one thing. We have done the show for so many years. The best thing about it is what we discussed today. Because most of the things we do are to address our insecurities. What do we think? We think, 'This is all I have. I should protect it.' We think. What you have will not stay with you. That's our insecurity. So, it will go away, we don't know that. That's the reality. But we always look at others, 'Will he go ahead of me?' Why do we search? Because we are not clearing our own path. We are not clearing the problems on our path. It is always important to compete only with yourself. Don't compare with anyone else. Even in today's show, many times we say, for example, they will put it for Sanju. Try and find a way. What is it? When we say that, many people take it as an insult. 'Why didn't they do this for him?' I once posted a video for Superman Kills. What do I have to do with Superman Kills? I am least bothered. I am only here for cricket. The point I am making is, if that is something that players address, if a Sanju is being addressed, how can you be a better version of yourself tomorrow? If you find an answer to that shot, to that question, instead of getting out at square leg, and if you get a boundary or a single elsewhere, that is you being a better version of yourself. All others. Like we said earlier, if he hits a pull shot, if he is bowled at his body, he gets out. Hetmyer, how can he be his better version? If he plays that ball, takes it inside the hip, and taps it inwards, this is my day. What is the purpose of playing in the lineup at 8? What are your thoughts on Siraj and Kuldeep in the bowling mix? Fielding needs care. Will runs come or not? Yes. Sky, Sky, will runs come? Sky, Varun, length also. Okay. He has expressed many worries. Let's look at it differently. Why is Axar in the team? Sir's question makes me a little sad. Without Axar, how, sir? Axar bowled brilliantly today too. Bowling speed, variation, he was rocking. He didn't give Sai any runs. Player of the day, actually, in my view, Axar Patel bowled excellently. So, I don't think. His batting, his greatness will be known when it comes. He can play in double gear, provide finishing, address a problem in front of you, give those fixes. Mumbai being a small ground, should India bat first? If they win, the million-dollar question. Today, I was very surprised India didn't bat. I would have loved to see India bat. But I hope that India can bat in the coming games. Mumbai, I am not sure, but I would really think India should. Let's ask the last few questions. What about I want to know how? What is the bit? Was there any doubt in it? Was there doubt? I will tell you one thing. Please understand. That snicko technology, sometimes it's like this and that. Today, clearly, when the ball was going past the bat, it was closer to the pad. That's what came out. That technology is above. Now, what's the problem? Let me tell you one more thing. In technology, when there are two views, a front view and a side view, those two don't sync every time. So, from one view, it will look like the bat is close to the ball. From another view, it will look like the bat is passing the ball. That's how it is. So, when that happens, many people will have that doubt. The ball is passing the bat. The ball hasn't even come close to the bat. In the last case, Shimron Hetmyer, because the technology indicated a snick, the umpire gave him out. I don't know if he was out. Personally, I think he was out. Only if he had appealed confidently. We have him. 100% good. He is a good boy. He slept peacefully today. The day of his life, on cricket. Today is his day. So happy for him. I am almost about to wrap up. You are not talking about Arbaaz and other players. Their performance is different. Vignesh, correct shots. It lifted the pressure of the game. Are you happy? Don't blame us for forgetting."
"That's why I sold Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala. I sold all the states, changing them one by one. Even if I have no right there, you are asking." "No, no, I just don't understand one thing. Shamar Joseph, didn't you raise him? You brought him up. You kept everyone inside and from the round wicket, outside of the stump, full toss." "I don't understand." "This is what I'm saying. Now, below him, in Pakistan's strategy, these two are the worst. That is, how I..." "Leave that. I'll ask another thing. Yesterday, the match went differently. Shanaka, on the extra cover, on the bat, from the boundary, straight to Palani foothills, the ball fell. He hit it so hard towards Palani foothills, and then played a tremendous bat sweep. What do you think about that?" "That's how it saved. What are you saying? They are saying, 'You are not hitting Palani.' Three sixes. You are hitting towards the mountain. The sound came from the house. What is it? The ball fell here. You said the direction wrong. It came here. Now, what will he say? The four intelligent people there will say, 'Eagle games.' You just be quiet. Then he can play until the next World Cup. Don't throw dirt on your own feet. Nobody will see those three sixes. That is, how is it? I will tell you in front of you. I have 20, you have 18. There, it's like, I have 28, you have 30. He hit 30. He is the number one bowler in the world in the previous over. After that, he tried to give 30. So, what do you have? That's what I'm saying. Hitting three sixes, still, a shot, a shot. If another six had gone, he would have hit five sixes and won the match. Okay, but anyway, win or lose, in Pakistan, until the next World Cup, until then, what Shanaka did, let's say one thing. We saw that power should come. It's a beautiful technology. They are saying it's noble. They are saying review. That's what they say. Bouncer."
"I have two reviews. Sometimes, what happens is, I don't even need to take them until the 16th over. Okay. I don't take them. Why am I not taking them? Because it's otherwise reviewed. When I have one, should I use it? Rahul Shanmugam said a super point. You are saying you are competing with South Africa and New Zealand. Correct, isn't it? I also have it. But will Mitchell of New Zealand do it? Just tell me. Tremendous Arjun. Report. Ayush. One net session. Cork. In the middle order, based on Dhoni's bowling. Urvil, finisher, and Dhoni's bowling. Okay, I will ask him after hearing that. He has gone in, right?" "Actually, I will tell you honestly. If India and South Africa reach the final, I will tweet, 'Come on.' Everyone knows about me. I don't pretend. I want South Africa to win. My second team will always be India. If India is not playing again."
South Africa, then second, third, second. Who is third? Who is third? There is no third. There is no third. It's a good story. So now, I first said Englewood, okay. Winning everything, coming from South Africa. I'll say it honestly. Today, if Jamba wins, the runs he scored were 53, right? They didn't bowl. I'll tell you one more thing. The pitch he's playing on, this Kolkata pitch, the ball is stopping. Santa Claus bowls at 69 kilometers. There's a person like this truck, see, Glenn Phillips. He bowls four overs. Rachin Ravindra is getting more than that. These guys are running and bowling fast. What will they do? They will rob. This is good. Bring in the. Read this. The New Zealand team will be dangerous. Beat it. Kolkata. Honestly, I say, India should come, South Africa should come. I don't know if it will happen. I don't know if it will happen. Let's wait and see. We will preview the India match. We are going to open the semi-final. But today, Champions Watch, brought to you by Sanju Samson. Before saying this is over, I'll raise my hand like a small child. I'll say just one thing. Tell me. I won't finish without singing the Vande Mataram song. There are only two more matches. Let's see. They won like that in 20. Give me that song. Okay, I've sung it. I'm leaving. India, Sri Lanka, I wandered around and around. I wandered everywhere for two points. I played intermittently in sun and rain. I found the address of the World Cup. My mind has gone mad. My hands yearn to touch the cup. My heart, my heart is beating. There is no game like this anywhere. Therefore, searching for the World Cup, Motherland, greetings. Motherland, greetings. Motherland, greetings. If they sing this two more times, they will win the cup. My mic is muted. Admin. 16,000 people were listening to this song. Peak Kolamas, it was written. Anyway, thank you so much for joining me. Our Chetta, like a fake Sanju, like Sanju.
