ICC Under-19 World Cup, Aug 2012


Recommended Posts

Posted

There was no televised fixture on day 5 of the 2012 under-19 World Cup, but there were 3 matches played. The talking point is that in all likelihood Sri Lanka are eliminated from the tournament after finishing on just 2 points from their 3 fixtures. If Bangladesh beat Namibia tomorrow they are through to the quarter final, the first live one against Australia on the 19th. Ireland won in Group ā€˜A’ against Nepal. George Dockrell was once again outstanding and led from the front as the Irish captain was adjudged MOM in a low scoring encounter for his 4 economical wickets. Nepal will play against England in the final televised pool fixture at the Tony Ireland stadium tomorrow. Group ā€˜D’ was always likely to be the group of death with 3 full member countries including a talented Bangladeshi side and we have seen that here with Sri Lanka eliminated earlier than many expected.

I hope they give the number 3 spot to Vijay Jol. Technically he looks far better than Vihari and Aparajith. Also, if possible find a spot for Kalaria as well. Seam bowling allrounder in these conditions would make the attack better. Chopra, Chand, Jol, Aparajith, Akash Nath, Smit Patel, Kalaria, Passi, Sandeep, Ravikant, Vikas/Harmeet
Zol used to play in the top order , may be cos they think the batting wud be top heavy hes been droped down the order . Chand , Harmeet & to an extent Zol are the only quality players in this squad . we realy way too much on Chand , so i have doubts on how far we can progress here

ICC Under-19 World Cup, India U-19 Vs PNG u-19, Aug 16 2012 How come no match thread exists for this game :dontknow: Maybe that's why Indian colts are struggling and hopefully the match thread will turn around the fortunes :antijinx: India u-19 need to win the match to make it to knock-outs and hopefully will manage to sneak through. Hoping for a great bowling performance from our bowlers :pray:

Our Captain managed to lose the toss all 3 times in the group stage ? Following MSD too much ? :giggle:
I can see shades of Dhoni here :smiley: Now all we need is a tied game and the cup is ours :haha: Correction: Seems like India won the toss and elected to bat.
Hahaha...will we even enter the second round?
Don't worry, we will. We are slow starters and once we sneak through we are gonna unleash hell and knock out Pakis from the tourney :--D
