This is how you handle Pakistani journos.

Talk down to them, make fun of their nonsensical question and leave them trying to justify their question in a hysterical fit of rage.

I just wish some of our players had the same attitude while answering these trolls.

 

[ataullah]

Brilliant by shaun

 

[shamaan]

Brilliant stuff from Tait well done.

 

[as-95]

Funny how the journalist got triggered. Well done Shaun )

I’ve seen this so much in club cricket. The overseas Australian pro arguing or explaining himself to the local uncle players

 

[MenInG]

Apart from this, Tait provided no other insight into the game or Pakistan strategy. All answers were "T20 cricket, happens, they played well" etc

Question is, why put him up there?

Someone should tell him that sending him at such a time is part of Qudrat ka nizam

PCB media switched his mike off after that!

 

[Rana]

PCB media switched his mike off after that!

I don’t like this guy

He does his best to gag the journalists whenever they ask tough questions

 

[Kianig89]

Bullying the journos that is

 

[shamaan]

Bullying the journos that is

Sometimes it's good these journos deserve some of their own medicine.

 

[Markhor]

PCB's media handling leaves a lot to be desired.

Was it Zafar Gohar and Naseem Shah who were made to front up after an especially bad day in the field in NZL a few years ago ?

What the heck is this??

Seems like he's gagging Tait in this picture.

 

[A.A.Z]

Seems like he's gagging Tait in this picture.

Tait was wheezing after running up the stairs so the media manager asked him if he needs a bit to recover and shut off the mic.

 

[Rana]

Yes that’s all he does. Just gags anything that doesn’t suit PCB narrative

 

[Savak]

Don't think Tait has much influence on team strategy, bowling selection or tactics.

Good stuff by Tait. For a second I thought Mohammed Hafeez was asking that question.

 

[Saj]

Indeed yes.

Felt for both of them. They looked like rabbits caught in the headlights.

Disgraceful player management that.

 

[Saj]

Just seems to be sat in the background, chilled out.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

His job is to coach the bowlers, not have influence or control over team strategy.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

My bad. I guess this is why you shouldn't make assumptions based on a photo or a headline.

 

[BunnyRabbit]

Question is, why put him up there?

He clearly didn't want to be there after that defeat. It was pathetic from the management to avoid the press themselves and sending the bowling coach out there who hasn't really come to the presser before. If you have to send him there, do it after a victory rather than after a horrendous day.

I like Saqlain and Babar, but their attitude regarding handling media is pretty awful and they are always unprepared.

On the other hand, Pakistani journos are arguably the worst when it comes to press and reporting. It wouldn't have been a shock if one of them had asked whether someone from Karachi (Hasnain or someone else) were being kept out because they belonged from there.

 

[JibranAnsari]

Looked irked without any reason.Not good.

 

[Kianig89]

Yes its the tapal duo who is incharge at helm of affairs

 

[daytrader]

66 runs in the last 6 by Afghanistan with both Haris and Shaheen bowling at the death.

Pretty bad. Doesn’t really bring confidence.

In before the “iTs jUsT a WaRm Up” excuses.
