[street cricketer]

Alaska lad is going to make mincemeat out of our kids.

 

[street cricketer]

Grass on pitch. Swing up early. Commies saying 230 pitch.

 

[street cricketer]

Lankan bowlers extracting great bounce from the pitch.

 

[street cricketer]

I'm lonely in here. Calling all the lankan fans [MENTION=137535]anuk[/MENTION] [MENTION=137677]Thivagar[/MENTION] and Indian fans [MENTION=137142]JaDed[/MENTION] [MENTION=139973]carrom_ball[/MENTION]

 

[street cricketer]

Lahiru Kumara bowling some jaffas with great attitude as well.

 

[Titan of Technique]

India vs Srilanka once a year is unbearable and today we have 2 such matches with about 3 hrs gap betweeen them

 

[pasha404]

look at pak u19 v nepal.we are really hopeless

 

[Sadevdesai]

Could have been all SC team Semi Finals .... too bad we crashed out !!!

 

[street cricketer]

Pant down.

 

[MMHS]

SRL new ball pair is impressive. Bowled a bit short, but kept the dynamic Indian opening pair honest. Only 1 boundary in 9 overs against Pant & Kishan is very good control. I think, IND 'll need 225, at least, but they are favorite to win here.

 

[Romali_rotti]

Pant dismissal was questionable, it looked like it bounced into the keepers gloves...

 

[pasha404]

ind bat very deep.unless and untill they collapse i can't see lankans winning

 

[Romali_rotti]

Avesh Khan is going to have a lot of fun on this wicket I feel..

what's so bad about watching kids play?

 

[LastManstanding]

Something tells me its going to be repeat of 2007 world cup in West Indies.

 

[street cricketer]

Kumara rightly rewarded for his excellent bowling first up.

 

[street cricketer]

Interesting that SL have only 2 pacers. There's quite some grass on this pitch and good bounce as well.

 

[street cricketer]

Pant dismissal was questionable, it looked like it bounced into the keepers gloves...

Tbh it looked like ot bounced to me as well in the close up. But in straight angle, it looked like a clean catch. It's a close call and one of those which can go either side..

 

[ChachaCricket]

Off topic but impressive chase from Windies yesterday. Good to see them winning. They've found some good young prospects. Just hope the board can get its act together.

yes it will end up costing us in the end.

umpiring has been poor this WC.

Obv a little personal, but am a little ticked off after Bowden screwing us over against Anderson

also Sarfaraz Sweeper Khan will be key here.

Washington Sundar tho lmao what a name.

 

[pasha404]

pak 30/3 WTH.this nepotism and favouritism will destroy the very fabric of our society

Washington bhai is an accumulator. Doesn't have the extra gear. His idol is Gavaskar

 

[street cricketer]

yes it will end up costing us in the end.

How many can SL chase on this pitch?

 

[LastManstanding]

Pakistan in real trouble now.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

NZ 35/6 against Afghan Bros )

 

[Romali_rotti]

Washington Sundar tho lmao what a name.

HAHA I was thinking the same thing, however nothing beats my fellow Annachi South Indian: Napolean Einstein lol... )

 

[Sandeep]

Sri Lanka will win it. You can make out from the body language of the two teams. Sarfaraz is the only guy who can tilt the match towards India.

 

[Suleiman]

Other Asian teams are fighting for their life in semis

we're fighting for our pride vs Nepal at 31/3... haha how sad.

Truly a sinking ship. Pak fans are the violinists who stayed on the Titanic playing their music all the way till it fully sank.

Typing this as I listen to my heart will go on

 

[street cricketer]

NZ 35/6 against Afghan Bros )

The Afghans and the Nepalese have been impressive in this tourney..

 

[Executioner]

Nz )

 

[Ashraful_Rox]

Nepal doing well here.

 

[Sandeep]

This new Sri Lanka seamer reminds me of Dhammika Prasad.. the same jumpy action.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

The Afghans and the Nepalese have been impressive in this tourney..

The two teams with most overage individuals I suspect .

 

[Titan of Technique]

Its bad.These kids will play each other as frequently as the senior team in a few years time

 

[Romali_rotti]

Sarfaraz looks a little fat lol..

 

[Executioner]

These wickets are easy to bat 2nd on. Win toss, chase

It doesn't matter. You have some decent talents coming through. Impressed by your young leggie and a couple of others. Your lot were way better than NZ and the Saffers. And probably better than England as well. WI have a good pace battery and there was help for their seamer s.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Sarfaraz looks a little fat lol..

Eating too much hyderabadi biryani. Also quite hot headed from what I hear.

In that case, Firebreaker must be Rose who jumped ship to UAE on a raft, only to learn that its a barren island with only vultures to give him company.

Wl36l must be man who was engaged to Rose and ends up going down fighting the Misbah fans even while the ship is sinking.

Mamoon is like the guy in the 2012 movie who goes to the top of the mountain shouting "the world's gonna end, it's going to be beautiful!".

lol at Russell Arnold that clown, he went something like this; 'I know I am not supposed to be biased but that was clear OUT', lol it only looked on the replay like there was a huge bounce when he was talking his above rubbish..

Yeah I guess, but the same spineless batting

Yeah he needs to watch his diet or he will turn into a potato and wont make it in today's cricket world..

lol funny Post of the week!

 

[rhony]

Does Sarfaraz mean 'rotund' in general? Because...

 

[Romali_rotti]

Sarfaraz showing good big hitting ability, IPL stint doing him a world of good..

 

[JaDed]

Bangladeshi kids cheering India and Sri Lanka nice

 

[pakpassfan]

Nepal skipper missed a trick of now Bowling Aarif Sheikh's full quota in the Quarter final

 

[JaDed]

Sarfaraz comes down way to often against the spinner and he hits a .

Safaraz has 1000 runs in U-19 4th Indian

 

[Pantani]

A battery of Sri Lankan spinners and the associated multi-syllable wicketkeeper babble must be one of the most terrifying attacks in cricket.

 

[JaDed]

Why do the lankans say ayyo

 

[JaDed]

Sarfaraz with his running capabilities in Inzi in the making lol

 

[JaDed]

Top run scorers in the WC are English players

 

[rhony]

By the way, will the Asia Cup be played on the same pitches?

 

[rhony]

Anmolpreet doesn't seem to have an aggressive bone in his body. He's patting full tosses for singles

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Sarfaraz completes his 50, seems like a good hitter of the cricket ball

 

[Belawal2014]

Avesh Khan is going to have a lot of fun on this wicket I feel..

Depends if the wicket eases out as the day progresses.

 

[Belawal2014]

Does Sarfaraz mean 'rotund' in general? Because...

 

[JaDed]

Sarfaraz really needs to get some stamina modern games require much more harder running than that.

 

[Suleiman]

yeah this is India's game again, think they have this cup.

Though I'd love to see WI win it.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Sarfaraz really needs to get some stamina modern games require much more harder running than that.

Seems like he believes in stand and deliver not much into running between the wickets type

 

[Sandeep]

Sarfaraz you beauty! Reminds me of the great old

 

[JaDed]

Safaraz he looked like he was gonna go sad

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Seems like he believes in stand and deliver not much into running between the wickets type

Contrary to popular belief, Inzi used to take a lot of singles. Maybe not as many twos and threes but he used to rotate the strike very efficiently with

 

[JaDed]

Yeah which is not the right way to play it,he can do that in tests if he wants.

 

[Sandeep]

Irrespective of today's result, this u19 world cup served India's purpose. We found the next Indian batting superstar. Ladies and gentlemen, Sarfaraz Khan.

 

[JaDed]

Contrary to popular belief, Inzi used to take a lot of singles. Maybe not as many twos and threes but he used to rotate the strike very efficiently with

Yes but wasn't very good at calling or atleast was involved in a lot of run-out

 

[Romali_rotti]

Damn Sarfaraz was looking good, so many 50's just cant get a 100

 

[JaDed]

Anmolpreet feels much better to have sundar there for running.

 

[Sandeep]

Damn, this Lankan guy is bowling well!

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Yes but wasn't very good at calling or atleast was involved in a lot of runs.

This is true though. Involved in quite a few runouts.

 

[JaDed]

Fernando is bowling 138

 

[JaDed]

That almost carried, we might lose this one ball not swinging that much now.

 

[Ankit007]

whats gonna be the score now for India...

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Target of 250-60 should be challenging on this pitch, seems difficult with 4 wickets down

 

[Ankit007]

3 down

 

[Sandeep]

Lankan bowlers to Tamil batsman... #Fernando #Sundar

 

[Sandeep]

India needs 250 on the board to give some something for the bowlers..

 

[anuk]

How many can SL chase on this pitch?

not really worried about the pacers even though the indian ones are good. sl u19 have a traditional weakness against spin, we saw the same against england and they have terrific pacies.

220 max.
