Would have been a perfect opportunity to take Younis Khan as Coach for U19s

 

[saeed5646]

Fimiliar faces in both batting and bowling Arshad iqbal,musa khan,rohail nazir ,saad khan,Saim ayub have already played last u19 worldcup.

Husnain and naseem shah is intresting pick as they both are consider future star with good speed and pace.No idea if it is right idea to pick them for u19 asia cup or allow them to continue there stint in Quaid azam trophy.

In the reserve there is bilal khan i am not sure if it is same bilal whose action is similar to cummins or is any other player

Regarding Hasnain and Naseem I think it's a right idea. They're 15-16 and it's not good to play them in so many FC matches with this ridiculous schedule. They're quite young and playing so many matches with little to no rest may cause severe injuries.

Good for them to play few FC matches, few List A, few U 19 and, I think they'll also played few A games in UAE.

i agree with you bro but i don,t think both of them will play ahead of arshad iqbal and musa khan.one of husnain and naseem shah will miss out in playing 11 unless arshad iqbal /musa get injured or have a bad outing

[moghul]

Rohail Nazir will take over from fading ( in form and fitness) Sarfraz in near future.

 

[hadi123]

This isn't the same tournament as the Emerging Cup, am I right?

Good luck to the boys

 

[ataullah]

16 yr old leggie Muhammad jahangir suprisingly overlooked. Top wicket taker in under 19 one day ahead of Nasim Shah with 27 wickets.

Farrukh Abbas could be farrukh Waqas. 17 year old Sialkot offie

 

[ataullah]

Muhammad Mohsin is very sharjeel esque. He has just scored a quick fifty in Quaid e Azam one day cup. Should be picked for PSL

I don't think it's the same guy. The one who plays for KRL and scored a quick fifty is 25.

 

[Saj]

Biggest surprise is Sadiq Mohammad, the team manager - aged 73.

 

[todfod 11]

Jahzaib Sultan's Stats are not impressive at all. why is he selected. Can some provide more info on him

Pakistan will start their tournament tomorrow against Hong Kong.

 

[hisham_ashraf]

I am personally looking forward to see Saim Ayub in this Asia Cup.This guy looks like a fantastic player.He has got all the shots and has had a fantastic 2018.Pakistan needs some good batsmen in their main team and unfortunately in the last U19 world cup all the batsmen disappointed barring Ali Zaryab.Will be interesting to see how Rohail Nazir plays in this tournament because Pakistan needs a good WK/Batsman and if he performs well in this tournament then it will increase his chances of playing for a PSL team.

In terms of bowling I am really excited to see Musa Khan,Arshad Iqbal,Naseem Shah and Muhammad Hasnain.They all have the potential to represent Pakistan in the future.

[TalentSpotterPk]

90 mph clocking Hasnain is what I want to see. Hope post injury he hasn’t lost pace as some posters have eluded to.

Was certainly 90 mph bowler before injury and impressed Waqar for a reason.


Let’s see how he goes.

 

[Baigel]

Watch out for Wasi Shah..UAE Batsman, In 290 games he's scored 14137 runs.

 

[RyanRyan10]

This tournament is more competitive than the senior Asia Cup
Even Nepal is a very competitive side at the u-19 level
AFG won the previous edition

So a total of 6 competitive sides

 

[giri26]

IND U19 are 156/4 in 29.3 overs against AFG U19 in the Asia Cup. Y Jaiswal has held the innings together and is batting on 92.

 

[giri26]

 

[MenInG]

Good stuff from Afghahistan but India bowling also strong

 

[MenInG]

 

[Bhaijaan]

Tight matches between India-Afghanistan and Pakistan-Sri Lanka.

 

[the_outsider]

IND-U19 beat AFG-U19 by 51 runs.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Semi final line up

India vs Bangladesh
Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan

 

[the_outsider]

Nepal, UAE, Pakistan and Hong Kong have been knocked out of the U19 Asia Cup 2018.



Semi-Finals:

Oct 4th - IND U19 vs BAN U19

Oct 5th - SL U19 vs AFG U19

 

[RyanRyan10]

Malaysia & Singapore should also be added for the next edition to make it a 10 team Asia Cup

both are better than Hong Kong at the u-19

 

[moghul]

We need to play some 5 ODI series with these countries ( Nepal, Hong Kong , UAE ) ASAP , our "Bradmens" are dropping their stats against better teams, not good. Uganda and Papua New guinea could be an other exciting option to play against.

Nepal can beat Pakistan at the u-19 level

[Nil Dhumrojal]

Another BD vs Ind clash in junior level...ind u19 will win it at ease. Not many talented batsmen in bd u19 though there are somr good bowlers.If bowlers can restrict ind u19 boys then there would be any hope.

 

[u0sama]

not a concern from last three years its look like genuine under 19. Yes they are not par with previous under 19 but are developing faster than previous under 19. Player like Musa, Arshad, Zaid Alam, Rohail and saim will become quality cricketers

 

[BDfanforever]

Who knew there is a such thing as u19 Asia Cup.

Anyway yet another Ind v Ban. Yet another loss for BD boys awaits.

 

[Shafi]

Anyone knows Basit's comment after this failure?

 

[navin]

Anyone knows Basit's comment after this failure?

He won't acknowledge his mistake. He must have many excuses other than himself.

 

[Shafi]

He won't acknowledge his mistake. He must have many excuses other than himself.

But did our journalists even ask any question about team performance or they don't even know about the tournament?

 

[Bubby]

We won by 2 runs

 

[DRsohail]

Bangladesh did a pakistan here.

 

[RyanRyan10]

Final will be televised on Star Sport?
