The questions raised by shehzad were amazing. The way Mirza tried to deflect the things coming on to him ended up exposing him further in my opinion. These TV journalists need to realise, not everyone is a fool. Its a new world out there where access to platforms is not limited. And it's the mentality of people like mirza that is pulling people away from TV and towards young journalists. Keep up the good work Shehzad. We are sick and tired of these toxic people.
Love the fact that the host didn’t hesitate to ask tough questions and laid it out to him straight up !

What, this Mota gandoo arsto , had agenda of pushing gando agenda.
People like you are OK your sons become gandoo but not OK to promote that
Mirza iqbal Baig was not at all at ease or comfortable talking about anything other then talking shop. Never considered him as a sports journalist, but thought of him as a good tabloid reporter covering the sports desk.
Shehzad is really good at conversations.
The only podcast in Pakistan that has the balls to invite guests and then criticize them (in a respectful manner) on their face.
Great stuff Shahzad..
Thank you.
I am watching this for the first time and very impressed with the host. Calm, to-the-point, no flowery talk. Good stuff
Mirza and his mentality is exactly what is wrong with pakistan cricket and the older generation of pakistan, who don’t let new people go ahead
Nah Bhai jaan. Har baat ghalat nahi ki.
I think he did good most of the part
What mentality ?
He was honest and truthfull
Exactly
Ur right. He's toxic as well
Hatsoff to the anchor for taking up with this self-righteous cricket analyst
Your podcast keeps on getting better. Kudos to you and the line up of your guests.
hats off shahzad bhai!!!!! i am just halfway through podcast and this is my 1st comment on any youtube channel and trust me you made me do it man, each and every thing on point man hats offff. you got my respect bhai great work. looking forward to more bangers from you.
After listening to Mirza I feel like our whole sports media is just like a Mafia.
Unbiased. Wonderful podcast. Shahzad asked the tough questions.
Dude! I'm running out of hats to tip to you. Your line up of guests is SO eclectic and SO impressive 👏 You should have a million subscribers by now. It's a crying shame that it isn't, but I don't have a shred of doubt in my mind that you're on your way to that coveted 1 mill mark.
Onwards and upwards!

Such a lovely discussion....I am loving it....
Shahzad Bhai you nailed it, wow, many a times he was reluctant and speechless. But very polite and sensible
Well done Shahzad & team. A very sincere effort to dig deep and bring out some inside information about Pakistan Cricket, Cricketers, media/sports journalists and the way Pakistan cricket is being run. It could have been more informative , had Mirza Iqbal Baig shown some gutts to reveal more of what he knows. He seemed very defensive as well as irritated at times, during the entire prodcast. I know Mirza Iqbal Baig from his early days in sports journalism, infarct I know him from his first ever commentary stint in a Nazimabad Super cup game at Bakhtiari Youth Center. I played Cricket for Karachi from 1986-1992 before moving abroad, for higher studies ( since then I have been outside Pakistan but follow Pak Cricket very closely) . Played cricket for few years in England, as well. Mirza Iqbal Baig has come a long way. With due respect to him he himself is an arrogant and rude person, who can't take any criticism , gets angry and at time vindictive.He was never a likeable individual within cricket fraternity. He never liked anyone, correcting him for his mistakes ( which we all make). But all credit to him for making a name for himself , against all odds. Not to mention how he did it??? I can write much more but let's not drag this further and save something for later. You and your entire team deserves all the accolades for your efforts. Stay blessed and stay safe -
His ignorance and pettiness is glaringly evident from how he is approaching the questions and how he is responding to those questions. That kind of mentality is what’s wrong with Pakistan Cricket.
Back to back bangers 🔥 , would love to see more conversations with people from other fields apart from politics

This a very funny interview. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you, Shehzad.
A great discussion! Very good way of asking direct questions. Host 👏
I started my cricket reporting career in 1983 for a Calcutta English daily. Pakistan was playing 3 tests and I met Javed Miandad who became my friend. Absolutely a gorgeous guy. The others I met were Zaheer Abbas, etc and Asif Iqbal was a commentator. Those were days.
Please visit pakistan once,Javed Mihadad invites you,pakistan is very peaceful country.
Such a nice man, married his son to Dawood's daughter.
Ramiz Raja is been talking about how Stupid and Propaganda driven our Sports Journalists are and I was thinking that Ramiz is just bitter after the Sack, but This Guy Just proved everything Ramiz said right
@Md. Jasim yeah sure because any PCB head is made by PM... but Ramiz never made “political” decisions. Like he was always quietly critical of Babar but in public fully backed him & never interfered.
And Now?
Same people, political driven, who were attacking Ramiz for YEARS for being internally not fully behind Babar & now attacking both like vultures.
Why? Because their political daddies have told them so!
So they used to attack Ramiz, mainly because he was Imran’s friend but openly pretended they are attacking Ramiz because he’s not sufficiently supportive of Babar... are now attacking BOTH!!
Sports “journalists” in Pakistan as an absolute joke & utterly corrupt & delusional.
This is what the level of Pakistan's journalist is(total crap). He also rightly explained that Zaka Ashraf already laid the ground work for PSL but sethi takes the credit.
@Md. Jasim These decisions are always political, I'm not here to defend Ramiz. I didn't like most of his policies but in this case he was absolutely spot on. These journalists needed to be put in their place. These guys are used to players like our ex players who used to leak team information to these guys so they can run their agendas, now they are not getting this information. You can have any criticism against current Pakistan squad but you have to accept the fact that this is probably the most United unit we've ever had. These journalists and most ex cricketer don't like that because they can't run their agendas now (I mean now they can as Sethi Saab is back).
This was a great podcast and a much needed reflection on our sports journalism! We treat it the same way we treat our politics, which is totally killing the spirit of the game.
I chanced upon your channel and loved it! The discussion with Mirza Iqbal Baig Saab was enlightening and free-flowing. Love and respect from India
Kia banda hai yr. Me fan tera bhai. Itna mene kisi ko counter krte hue nhi dekha mene host ko. Or wo b Mirza Iqbal Baig k against.wow wow wow. You are a champ bro.
This was so well done, I came to listen to this highly frustrated and disappointed with the current negativity around our players and the uncertainity on captains, PCB and selectors. Hoping this reaches more ears and we come back to a semblance of sanity on the one good thing bringing the nation together positively over the last 3 years :)
The host totally nailed it.
Shehzad you are so good at confrontation! I just love you ❤️
Very well prepared host.. kudos
First time listened this host,really impressed.very nice personality..
You are good Shahzad, keep up the good work. Pakistan needs more like you, much more
Ramiz was right about sport journalism in pakistan.
You are doing great bro
It was a great interview
The Questions raised by Shahzad relating to the host and their criticism of cricketers are so valid and brave by his side. These questions are already in my head before I watch this. More power to you❤
❤
Glad to get him on the show so we get to know the mentality of this gen. Couldnt even defend the logic of his many criticisms, instead tried getting dirt on shehzad
Ajj to bhai sari maray dil ki baain kr dien👍🏻👍🏻
Finally a podcaster who is not afraid or intimidated by the guest and openly disagrees whenever required!
Its rare to see that in our pakistani podcasts! Quiet common in the west but it was refreshing to see it happen in our pakistani podcast channels!
Keep up the great work!! 👍
Nowadays host don’t like to agree with guest is a fashion
Of many days left ?
How Mirza changed topic from Hassan Ali to the stand up comedy was obvious
It’s really hypocritical that he talking about Hassan Ali off the field issues which I agree with him. But wasim, waqar, Imran and other great player also did the same.
Shehzad man, your show is amazing, your comment on sports shows is absolutely true
First comment on your channel. Amazing podcast. Loved how you sweetly gave him a taste of his own medicine.
Brutally honest Shehzaad!! Keep it up!!
Wonderful show
Good humor and good talks
Best show need to do more…
Informative Good PODCASTS

Always Welcome 💐
Did Beg sahab said "deewanay ki shadi mai Abdullah baygana"? At 1.23.00 mark
Good interviewee.
Dude, you were grilling Mirza sahab like crazy!
Do you have English subtitles for this as it seems interesting but as I do not speak Pakistani I cannot understand what's being said?
Sir, I have watched only 2 of the posts by you....full episodes of more than an hour each. I appreciate and simply love your clarity of mind for most of the issues you raise.
Hardly see enough Pakistani channels like this, would appreciate references in reply to this comment. For this kind of an attitude, love from India and Indians too
❤
Which sports channel does he host in?
I like this edgy, and frank conversations. Both, host and guest deserve credit.
🙌
First time listening to your podcast. Very well hosted! Bring Mohsin Ali next and ask similar questions!
Hats of to you! Expose these Blackmailers who want to ruin the image of Babar Azam, Rizwan, Shadab.
Great prodcast sir
This is a damn good interview. If Pakistan has at least 10% of people like Shehzad, Pakistan would be much better nation.
And 10% less journalists like Mirza Baig
I have become a big fan of host.Pakistan needs more people like him.
Keep ur opinion to urself we dont need ur validation endian
Shehzad bhai respect+ yarrr.
The host is so nice. Love from India 🇮🇳 ♥️
Great Podcast... every question from you is a bouncer to Mirza Iqbal Sahab.. Yes he is one of the great sports journalist but you making him uncomfortable... In cricket term you are unplayable.... hats off👍
great podcast
Unbiased shehzad. Great 👍.
Keep it up.
🙌
Smart good question by Host
You are Brave....from 🇮🇳 swad aa gya
As an Indian viewer I have to say that this is one of the most honest and candid interviews on Pakistan cricket. Kudos to both the interviewer and the guest for being completely honest and candid about everything. All Pakistani talk shows are entertaining but this one was very sensible and professional.
All shows are entertaining!? Or comic! This was okay..
Everyone is criticising the guest, remember one thing, he lives in Pakistan. The host as always is so so good. Remember guys, just imagine if you would have been sitting in front of shehzad, would you smile? The questions and the answers do make sense. At least to me. Please gaali mat dena.
hamza mir k sath ziyati hui chance nahi diya lol sir us ki fifer ki video uppload kardein kindly
MIB instinctively switches between being the interviewer and guest :)
Although I am watching this show 11 months later... but what beautiful way you ran the show... God bless!!!
Prophetic at times.... like the way you talked about 'Pavillion' ...as a show!!!
Sad that I missed it then!!!❤❤
🙌❤
your podcasts are inspirational
🙌
Still no audio version
MIB is symbol of knowledge and competency… 🏏👍👍👏🤩
Sir Mirza Baigji,did you come to India in 2004 test series as Radio Pakistan commentator?
Appreciated to defend Hassan and co.
Cricket 🏏 - Dream of million youths. Cut-throat competition. 😕
Very impressive. Mashallah. Bring new people like u. It shows that mirza sb ab aap ghar jaein
Shahzad bhaaaai, nice but please request Haider Azhar, Rehan Ul Haq, Rashid Latif on podcast
He is the only person I think is serious sports journalist in Pakistan
ghias focused dude
Crisp podcast
The legend mirza iqbal baik
Matches aaj bhi delay telecast pr hi aate hain
3:15 so so so true about Rameez
bhai mujhe nhi lagta ab tak ye podcast hum indian viewers ke paas acche se pahuchi hai, ye content to aag hai bhai aag...best of luck brother...quality se compromise mt krna please
ghias informed dude
It's such a simple thing, analise and give weitage to opinion of different people's recommendations...coach captain analyst even public opinion and those who score max should automatically be selected.
Use tech....and emotions .... A mix of both and get the best of both the worlds
Experience and good podcast anchor person is young and electric
18:32 Consistency is important. Reminded me of MSD. That man is different.
I was looking for something like that but you tried to nail him, he was highly uncomfortable and simply managed it with a cunny smile.
Ge was playing a victim card almost everywhere.
Iss hamam mein sub nangay hein tou beigh sahib kaisay bach saktay hein.
You nailed it with conviction.
All the best.
contrary to my impressions, MIB tu kaafi toxic banda hai. Shehzad sounded reasonable for the first time ever
what did MIB say or did that made u feel like it?
@@MT-tr9gp ghanta gaey mosoof
Smjh jaen
You are damn good plz remain same and ask tough questions. That TV channels media are against Babar, Rizwan and great players
🔥
The host sounds far more logical, unbiased and intelligent than the guest. Seems like the guest has personal vendetta and part of some mafia, Ramiz Raja was right. Hats off to the host. This was my first experience on this channel and agree with views of the host.
Cricket in the subcontinent is often compared to living in a small town village, where everyone is familiar with each other and aware of the latest news and gossip. In such close-knit communities, individuals prioritize groupings, politicizing and by overlooking or ignoring significant issues...... 5 test playing nations but 5 million groups..😢😮
Shahzad ask great potcast. Unfortunately not 1 Million.
Mirza’s mentality is exactly what’s wrong with our cricket journalists
An amazing host.
🙌
You are one hell of a host.
I salute you. You are such a nice person. I watch your show first time.
This Mirza guy is mischievous.
He should be ashamed of himself.
Be honest man mr. Mirza.. you are looking yourself a lower middle class man. Really lower middle class. I rather say you don't have any class
Region based city centric cricket is the future…
1:27:16 ..i think cough attack hua hai mirza baig sahab ko..agla ko dehan hi nhe hai.
Start mei hosting average thi but in the mid good questions.
Shoaib Malik also played as 12th man and took water in ground for players as ex-captain
