Where has that blond bowler from SA U19 2014 team gone? He took like 6 wickets in the final

Where's the Kallicharan future stars video?

Why is this thread not stickied?


Why isn't there a sub-forum for this tournament?

BTW, it starts in 5 and a half hours.

Trying to break into our domestic team the Titans after having a stint in Australia.

16th - India v PNG
17th - West Indies v South Africa

NZ have both SAF and Windies in their group? Bummer. I assume that means we won't get out of our group.

Some strange choices. I understand the financial reasons for the India v minnow group games, but England v Namibia?

Does England v whoever major team in their group is clash with India v minnow?

NZ doesn't even pretend to care about their under 19s (pretty sure it's youth odi debut for most of them) so i expect us to get flattened by the other sides

Oh Bangladesh is their major clash in that group (seedings taken directly from the 2016 U19 WC, I think?). Canada and Namibia the minnows.

There must've been a nervous shocker of a delivery to start this competition off, but Naveen ul-Haq has got one early for Afghanistan -

I see the two Lincoln games (near the Canterbury radar) will be pushed back a bit, but a fine afternoon is forecast -

Come on! Bring on Mujeeb!

Todd Watson being a thing might answer some of thierry henry's questions about how Colin Munro made the NZ Under 19 side as a specialist bowler back in the day.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Young Max Bryant is from my hometown. Used to play against his dad in the local comp. Goes better than anyone from our area has for a long, long time. Hopefully he plays a large part in this tournament!

Afghanistan looking good. I see there will be some clips available from non-TV games -

True, but you'll see he does have a nice simple agribusinessman's approach down in the engine room, Watson. You can never underrate the importance of having that guy chipping in to make your sixth score of 25-55, when you're a team full of young New Zealanders.

 

[Blain]

Watson runs in sooo slow. Crazy. Ravindra reminds me of Vettori, he obviously has studied the action! Can't believe he isn't in the Firebirds squad already. Fisher has good pace.

 

[SeamUp]

Never under-estimate your home team boys !

in this tournament if you have 2 really good batsman, a good spinner and a strike-bowler and you're in the hunt.


Afghani's beating Pakistan is no surprise. This really could be a changing of the guard in cricket. Their development has been so quick.
