The Tournoument has started and it looks like India are on track early to paste PNG 0-30 in the 4th over.

Poor effort from the NZU19's with the bat. Only Corey Anderson put together a decent score of 82, with the second highest score being extras with 33.

Southee on fire 3/4 off 4 over. leaving Zimbabwe 5/22.
Coming up: knee jerk selection for Southee into the NZ test side at 19 against the likes of Vaughan and Pietersen where he is mowed, confidence ruined, and set back a few years.

Jeez I'm cynical.

Nah good stuff by Southee and Anderson, wish it was on Sky here.

Gutted there is no coverage of this tournament in England (to my knowledge).

Excellent start for us though, a professional ten wicket victory against the Irish. No upsets to speak of yet in this tournament.

TBH he already looks better then most of Kiwi seamers outside Franklin, Mills or Martin. So he needs to picked cus he one of best you got. It shouldn't really matter how old he is. Just look at Sharma playing at 19, if your good enough your old enough. If you play him as basically the 4th seamer behind Oram, I think it would be a good way to introduce him into the side.

Wow, we've got Pakistan 12/3 after 3 overs.

Southee and Boult carving it up. Come on boys!

This is probably the best bowling attack the NZ U19 side has ever had. However, aside from Worker, Williamson and Anderson..the batting's a little on the light side.
