The match is televised on Sky Sports - Please DO NOT ask for streaming links.
 
I'm not so sure it is. It seemed a very unpredictable pitch yesterday so very difficult to know what is a good total which makes batting first even more difficult.

Unpredictable nature of pitch is evident by the looks of highlights they are showing

Ok, never saw any match on Sky , hence asking, guess will have to find out myself..
 
This pitch was played on last night and it was a nightmare to bat on. The ball was spinning and exploding from the intense 70mph bowling of... Paul Collingwood :p
 
Why are people worried about the future of Pakistan cricket? Even with no money spent and rubbish facilities this under 19 team are miles better than the other sides.
 
Just imagine if these guys get good facilities and are made to play on such pitches regularly.
 
everyone who is asking about broadcasting-match is live on sky sports 2/ashes hd. No links.
 
ball stayed low :(

The ball stayed a little bit low however he planted his front foot and tried to play round it which meant when the ball nipped back in there wasn't really any way for him to play the ball.
 
If this was a proper England game, Flower would be going berserk with the groundsman for producing this pitch.
 
Terrible pitch. It isn't even good enough for club players. The matchis being broadcasted so should have been a little better.
 
This pitch will be a really good test for the batsmen. If you can bat on this surface, you can bat well anywhere.
 
I do like it when things get mixed up and you play on a really hard, nasty pitch every now and then.
 
This is the real test of Pakistan U-19. We will be able to know who can grind it out and who is mentaly strong.

Groundsmen across the country seem to have struggled to produce decent pitches due to very dry summer and new drainage systems.

However this will be a better test of the batsmen than playing on a road and scoring at 7+ runs per over...

yeah he would have missed the ball anyway, but if it hadnt stayed low he might have been given not out
 
lol I had a feel these lot will bottle it. Pressure of cameras and crowd getting to them, just like the senior team, mentally weak.
 
no timing on this pitch singles and two's will be required for most of the innings.

Crowd? There aren't many people at the ground!
 
Rafay looks a total whimp against short bowling.
