I think you've been tricked about Harry Boam as a fast-bowler! he's a batsman..I think he was making a bit of a joke there on his player profile.

It seems from the scores that it's not easy to be a batsmen in this tournament. So yeah, I think it'll come down to who can do the most damage with the ball.

NZ's shown so far that they've got a pretty good bowling attack, but I feel they will struggle against the Sri Lankan spinners.

Kohli doing well... great to see. This was the kid who turned up the same day when his father unfortunately passed away to see his team through....

England all out for 146. Disappointing from them but I guess their strength is in their bowling so they have to be exceptional to defend this total.

Very polished bowling effort from India. Should knock these off given their batting strength.

The english youngsters are worse than the senior team when it comes to facing spinners.
India 50 for 0.

South Africa 242/8 (Parnell 57) beat Bangladesh 41/10 (Parnell 8 for 6) by 201 runs.

What a performance from the captain!

India cruise home here. Very excited by these lads, very talented and unlike Indian cricketers of the pas they seem to offer so many intangibles like good professionalism and intensity. Fielding and workrate is class. Dav is doing a good job with these lads, hope they can kick on.

Australia v Pakistan tommorow. Very much looking forward to it.

Disappointing performance from England but the wickets in Malaysia have been conducive to spin and the side struggles against it royally, so it comes as no surprise to see them crash out.

Excellent performance from South Africa though. Bangladesh were a much fancied side and to dick them that hard after they won the toss was exceptional.

Zim’s batting has been laughable throughout but their bowling hasn’t been that bad. Apparently, seamer Kyle Jarvis has been one of the best bowlers on show.
