Absolute dolly.... 

[nevada]

Should have caught it. Very lucky break for England.

[Lord]

Bawa 135kph allrounder. Very exciting.

[Forward Defence]

Spin already? Ravi was getting good movement

[test fan]

WTH .how can he dropped that simple catch

[vvvslaxman]

That was such a dolly. That too the wicket of Thomas

[Lord]

220+ would be tough

Yes. This English side is capable of posting that now after that drop.

[Lone Wolf]

Bawa has good control unlike Hanga.  Should get new ball everytime.  Hangs should be used as a enforcer. 

[vvvslaxman]

If you have 7 or 8 bowlers in your side, it is very easy to confuse the opposition with rotation.  They have been doing that successfully.

[nevada]

Yesss! Thomas gone, that drop didn't prove costly after all.

[Norman]

Gone!!! 

 

3 down

[vvvslaxman]

Bawa strikes. He consistently gets lift of a good length more than Hangrekar.  Partly because he is slightly taller also release style Hangrekar is skiddier. Shorter guy.  His role model probably should be Shami.

that's why its important for batsmen to be able to bowl. None does that in senior team in top 5

Tambe must be a relieved man now...

Actually we gained some dot balls :)

[vvvslaxman]

Bava is an unique bowler.  Saini for brief period was able to extract bounce like this on a good length.  Not seen many of our bowlers do that.  Heavy ball like Flint off used to do.

[Lone Wolf]

Raj Bawa bats in lower middle order as well.  Exciting prospect.  Hopefully IPl side pick this guy.  Eager to see more of him. 

[Norman]

Extremely impressed with Raj Bawa. Lol at those who wrote off this team after that last ball defeat to Pakistan. More exciting prospects than the last edition.

For the first time under-19 is producing some thing our senior team misses badly. Usually we produce great top order batters and some raw pacers. Shaw/Gill/Jaiswal/Tyagi/Nagarkoti/Mavi .. Both departments are already full. It is the all rounders that we missed. Abishek sharma was the only all rounder  if i remember right. All these guys are way better all rounders than him.
