During the second day of the first Test match between Pakistan and the West Indies, Sajid Bhai was sitting there and mentioned, "I have a little wish. If I take five wickets in the next innings, I hope my teammates Rizwan Bhai, Babar Bhai, Rizi Bhai, and Booby Bhai will do that signature celebration of slapping the cap on my head. That would make my life feel really successful." So today, when he completed his five wickets on the third day, it happened!
Sajid Bhai, did you see how it went down? First, Rizwan Bhai was right here on the right, and Bobby Bhai came in from the other side. Those three really tried to copy the wicket-taking celebrations that Sajid does, but it just didn’t hit right. Let’s be honest, Rizwan didn’t nail the copy at all. Baber managed to copy it better, but honestly, they should've practiced the night before or watched some videos of Sidhu Moosewala. That guy had his own style too; he used to hit it hard. If they’d just taken a little time to practice, it would’ve been way better.
"Let’s practice a bit. We do net practices too, right? If we did it just to keep this poor guy happy, what’s the big deal? Rizwan bhai didn’t enjoy it at all; he didn’t even lift his leg! I mean, looking at all these pictures in front of me, I’m telling you, Rizwan bhai didn’t lift his leg at all. I thought he was just playing around. Today, it’s like one leg is hurting and the other one is barely lifted. Anyone watching would get confused about which leg is actually hurting! It’s pretty straightforward."
"One leg is propped up, and the other is half in the air. If Babar gets it right, I think it’s a bit cultural too, right? It seems like it’s a bit too easy for Babar. Sajid Bhai is a Pathan, right? Yeah, Sajid Bhai is a Pathan, and he’s got the Pathan vibe going on. Babar looks good too. And the funny thing is, Rizwan Bhai is holding the other leg! The leg he taps on is the one that needs to be lifted, and he’s raised the other one. It’s kind of weird, right? Trust me, it’s like polio."
"Man, there are way too many ducks here. And seriously, the cameraman totally messed up with that awful shot—now it’s gonna go viral on social media. You should just delete that pic! Anyway, back to Sajid. Sajid's got a solid game going on—he’s got four wickets, then five, you know? Plus, he’s a fighter—does pretty good in batting and bowling, and his fielding is exceptional. Did you see how he took that wicket in the first innings? What’s his name again, man?"
Let me tell you, man, names get thrown around a lot. Sajid Bhai took an incredible catch during the Hajj match. Nobody could believe it! But Sajid Bhai, you know, fumbled a ball once. It slipped right out of his hands. But he said there was no question about it! Sajid Bhai is almost at 50 wickets now. Well, before this Test match, he hit that milestone. In Test cricket, there's no doubt about it; the way things are going with the spinning wickets and all that...
"Sajid Bhai has been really important lately. Let me tell you about his recent performances. Starting from the Test in Multan, he scored 5, 4, 4, and 6. That's impressive! He’s played two Tests in Multan and one in Rawalpindi, and things are going well for him. He’s a really good bowler too; he took eight wickets against Bangladesh in Mirpur. If you remember, he was there during the Bangladesh tour in 2021. He’s an exceptional spin bowler."
He's taking advantage of the conditions and getting wickets. The only difference is, when these damn tricky conditions and pitches are exploited by others, what are we going to do? You've seen the scores in this Test match—only once did Pakistan manage to score over 200, in their first innings. After that, they struggled to get to 150 in the next three innings. The West Indies couldn’t even reach 150 in either innings. So, when better spinners come along or stronger teams with batters who can handle it better, what will happen then?
"Let's perform a bit better, like New Zealand and South Africa's spinners. Sri Lanka is already sorted; forget about India coming here. And for that matter, Bangladesh has good spinners too. So, this could be a problem for us. But anyway, let's celebrate Sajid Bhai's win! You guys should also lift your legs and cheer, but don’t lift both legs at once or you’ll fall! It’s winter, and if you get hurt, it won't heal quickly. By the way, I'm saying you should join in on the celebration too."
"Sure, you can do it like Rizwan Bhai, but for God's sake, don't upload his picture anywhere. Now that Rizwan Bhai's got his, just check it out; you’ll enjoy
