U19 quadrangular series in Australia, April 2012

Looks like this u-19 team spent 4-5 days at the NCA with Fletcher, Penney, the new national bowling coach and the physio. No wonder the manhoosiat of Fletcher has spread even to this successful u-19 team :P

Awesome. Our boys were saving their best for the knockout games. Would be awesome if they go ahead and beat the Aussies in the final now. Also, does the U-19 play any youth tests matches vs the other u-19 teams/Aus u-19 on this tour? I would be disappointed if they return after the 50-over series gets over.

I think this was a day-night match and Indian fast bowlers Sandeep Sharma and Mohsin Sayyed took full toll under lights.
Day Night matches at venues where too much assistance is afforded under the lights should be abolished. At some of the Aussie and SA venues it's well nigh impossible to win while chasing.

naah, was a day game. The scorecard says match start time as 9.30 Am AET.

In SL as well. Dambulla was very tough to start with. But on the other hand, you have venues where it is impossible to defend because of the dew.

We have enough data now to make the call, and especially in a global tournament like World Cup or Champions Trophy scheduling should take note of the imbalance.

thats why I like the split ODI idea.no unfair advantage to anyone
Too many problems with that approach... 1. Set batsmen would have to get themselves in once again. 2. Too many breaks. People would lose interest as 4 innings changes is too many for folks. They tried the concept in Aus and it was so unpopular that it had to be shelved after one season.
