Padosees taking Aus U19 to cleaners


Recommended Posts

http://www.pcb.com.pk/Pakistan/Scorecards/129/129516.html leads series 2-0. No wonder Aussies are holding on to their old guards because their young players are rubbish. Pak U19 looks on target to become world champion 3rd time in a row:sad_smile:
pakistan won U19 before.. but still cant find descent cricketers for international cricket.. same goes for India.. but Australia keep getting those replacements easily.. soo this means nothing..

its not news to anyone that pak's u19 cricketers are mostly or usually overaged. Hence the advantage. When the same aussies strengthen in a two or three years, they become stronger and more skillful. Nothing to take away from pak19, but this is a fact. Even Afridi commented on this age issue in one of his interviews. If one would look at u19 sides, then pak and India should be the top 2 teams, but they are not, so something is wrong either with their domestic setup or these players are simply not getting their chances. The indian u19s actually get a lot of chances, not sure about the pak u19.

that may of been the case..but its a legal requirement for all kids to have proper birth certificates issued for the last decade for everyone. - before it wasnot manditory for reporting of births especially in remote villages for eg. Although, I have notice that the western countries u19 which play ..majority are either 18/19...although most subcontinental blood the youngsters in quicker. You may also take into account that before Pak won the u19s in 2004. previous winners Australia(2002), India(2000) and England(1998). So players will filter through slower for pakistan.

that may of been the case..but its a legal requirement fr all kids to have proper birth certificates issued for the last decade for everyone. So, it was based on the fathers memory of the date , when enrolling kids into primary level of school. Although, I have notice that the western countries u19 which play ..majority are either 18/19...although most subcontinental blood the youngsters in quicker at 16/17 at that age. You may also take into account that before Pak won the u19s in 2004. previous winners Australia(2002), India(2000) and England(1998).
