00:03Sir, Sir, Sir, where are you?
00:04Amir Sir, Amir Sir, where are you?
00:06Amir Sir, Amir Sir, where are you?
00:30We are waiting for ladies and gentlemen, Lennon, Lennon, Amir is here, let's give him a big
00:44high.
00:45He's been training, he's been practicing, he was Manastra number one under 14 in tennis,
00:52so obviously very talented and a lot of pressure today, Amir Khan, superstar as well as athlete.
00:58The last time I played pickleball was the last time I played at this tournament, which
01:03was a year ago I think, so I'm not in nick actually.
01:06This is going to be a very tough tournament, we are getting three guys, unknown quantities
01:10are going to come from the audience, it's a lucky draw, we don't know who, if you have
01:14money or you have the final walker, put the money up and we will push you in as quickly
01:19as possible.
01:20We also got some professionals as back ups, it's going to be a great match, Amir is stretching,
01:24each hamstring is worth 4000 draws, so be very careful.
01:28So pictures rest on this wonderful body.
01:29But before we actually start, Amir, I have a question to you, I am not very good at pickleball,
01:34but I am very good at a game called Tickleball, would you be interested in playing Tickleball
01:35with me?
01:36I think I have my doubts.
01:37It's just a few fingers, oh there you go, fantastic, always a champion.
01:38Okay, what do you want to say to all these players who have come from all over the world
01:39to participate in the league?
01:40Well it's really wonderful to see the excitement and you know all these great players, I am
01:41watching them knocking, I think the second semi-finals I saw the players knocking, really good
01:47level of pickleball.
01:48level of pickleball.
01:49So I am looking forward to watching some great, after I play my game I want to watch some
01:50great pickleball as well.
01:51And a quick tip, lot of people have played tennis like yourself and are moving to pickleball,
01:55What do you feel, the advantage of having played tennis first, do you think there's something
01:56coming out of that as well?
01:57I saw the players knocking. Really good level of pickleball.
02:00So I am looking forward to watching some great, after I play my game, I want to watch some great pickleball as well.
02:06And a quick tip, lot of people have played tennis like yourself when I am moving to pickleball.
02:10What do you feel the advantages of having played tennis first?
02:13Do you think there is something coming out of that as well?
02:15I have to go to school. I am going to go to school.
02:18Sir, there is Pete's problem. You can go to school.
02:21No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

02:30Ladies and gentlemen, I have to leave the country forever.
02:32I have to leave the country forever.
02:33That is unbelievable.
02:36No, but if you are a tennis player, I think it does help, because you, you know your backhand, forehand, or these are sorted.
02:43The bounce is different, the court is different, but the racket is different, but otherwise the kind of shots you play are similar,
02:49so I think you have an advantage if you play tennis.
02:52Alright, are we ready to start?
02:56No, no, we can't start with our energy. Come on guys, Samir Khan!
03:00Let's just avoid!
03:02Okay, before we start, we need other players.
03:05With Amir on the court, we have the lucky dip ready.
03:08And as we will go to the middle of the court,
03:12when we will do the lucky dip,
03:14and you can see that here is your referee.

03:21You have to pick one at a time.
