ICC Under-19 World Cup Warm Up Match, England Under-19s v Pakistan Under-19s at Brisb

[IAJ]

Good start of the last overS

 

[Genghis]

And another six, this time over mid off. Thats also gone over the road.

 

[Genghis]

6-281

 

[IAJ]

Another 6 by usman

 

[Genghis]

Good total off 50 overs after being 3-26.

 

[HA123]

qadir palying a nice cameo to end the innings 281 the final score

 

[IAJ]

54 runs were added by these two, from only 33 balls.

 

[HA123]

qadir to take up an afridi sort of role

 

[IAJ]

If England chase this down they will be the biggest favourites to win the whole cup.

 

[IAJ]

qadir to take up an afridi sort of role

Yes I call him little Afridi, but I have to be careful since we actually have another real afridi in the team.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

I wish this was telecasted

Btw Genghis maybe you can stream it via ustream

 

[IAJ]

To get to 281 when your top three batsmen fail is amazing. Well done!

 

[khanz141]

i am actually glad the top three got out cheaply today because this exposed the middle and lower order early so they could get some practice in and be under pressure for once because every match one of the top 4 is always there till the very end. Now, next match i won't be so happy with a similar situation though

 

[iZeeshan]

I hope Zia-ul-Haq has some fun here

Nice to see that there is a LOT more to this u19 team than just Sami Aslam & Babar Azam

Lots of batting talents coming up, iA

Besides those two, Umar Waheed and Imam ul haq have been very very talented too and they have always been producing the good on the field

 

[osee_bhai]

Qadir has No.8 potential written all over him, in multiple formats.

You're very correct, we have seen almost the entire team now come through in situations and display their talent, no passengers in this team.

 

[Genghis]

Next innings is underway. Zia Ul Haq to open.

 

[Genghis]

Short and hooked to the boundary after a few dot balls.

 

[Genghis]

Azizullah also goes for a boundary. And then another. This Drummond looks like a good bat!

 

[Genghis]

14 after the first couple of over.

 

[Genghis]

Zia gets some good bounce and gets a fine edge. Davies is out!

 

[Genghis]

Zia working up plenty of good pace here. That's three play and misses/mistikes in a row by the English batsmen off him.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Zia working up plenty of good pace here. That's three play and misses/mistikes in a row by the English batsmen off him.

Cool.

How is Azizullah?

Fast and Furious?

 

[Genghis]

Azizulllah is probably more skiddy.

 

[speed]

How about adil?

 

[godzilla]

Cricinfo have ehsan as fast and zia as medium fast, does it seem that way live?

Just noticed its 15 players a side..

 

[Couch Cricketer]

What are we waiting for these are english players bring on the spinners

 

[Genghis]

Consecutive boundaries off Ehsan Adil. This Drummond fellow looks a top prospect!

 

[Genghis]

Finally seeing a spinner on. Nawaz on!

 

[Genghis]

Just one run that over and Zafar Gohar replaces Ehsan Adil

 

[Genghis]

Big SIX by Drummond!

 

[Pakistaniboy]

This Drummond is very impressive

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

England 102/1 after 17.5 overs

Great start by England, we need to take some wickets asap

 

[Genghis]

Crutial that Pakistan gets Bell-Drummond out here. He's making it look easy. Going at better than a run a ball.

 

[osee_bhai]

Need to get this drummond bloke out, he's killing us.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

I sense a Pak-India Kohli Anhillation type of scenario if Drummond stays a bit longer

 

[osee_bhai]

Why not give the attacking leggie, Qadir, a bowl? Need a wicket.

 

[Genghis]

Leggie Usman Qadir into the attack now. England doing it easy.

 

[Genghis]

Bell-Drummond got some runs against the South African touring side recently too:

48 and 42*

[Genghis]

Got him! Bell-Drummond gone edged off Usman Qadir.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Good.
England 2 down.

 

[osee_bhai]

Let's see if Pak can apply one of our patented collapses now.

 

[Genghis]

And now Zafar Gohar has bowled another English batsmen. He's broken the bail too.

 

[Genghis]

3-138 in the 26th over,

 

[Genghis]

Usman Qadir getting some punishment from Foakes his last couple of overs

 

[Genghis]

And this time he hits Babar Azam for a SIX over long off.

 

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Ben FoAKEs brings his 100 up. 217/3 after 36.3.
Pretty much over.

 

[Genghis]

Foakes has really raced along since the wicket of Bell-Drummond fell.

And he's just brought up his century. Eng 3-219 in the 38th over.

 

[Genghis]

SIX over the bowler and then FOUR through covers. Both batsmen are set and hitting out now.

 

[NoToIpL]

Can Pakistan win from here ?

 

[Genghis]

And a consolation wicket there.

 

[Genghis]

Foakes is out!

 

[osee_bhai]

Really good innings by Foakes, really raced through his second 50 and took the game away from Pak.

 

[Genghis]

And a good catch there ... right on the boundary - 5 for 280. Qadir gets another wicket,

 

[Genghis]

England win by 5 wickets with 6 overs to spare,

 

[IAJ]

This is outclassing!

Not only have England brought the pakistani players down to earth but also us fans.

We have got carried away blindly after recent successes.

Two defeats in two matches now. A real wakeup call.

 

[NoToIpL]

Best under 19 team
really ?

 

[IAJ]

Seems like it was a really good toss to win. The early wickets cost us the match. Bowlers were also hammered.

 

[IAJ]

You really expect them to defend such a big total at this level.

There are many strong teams. Windies are doing great against Australia and SA have beaten NZ.

This was only a warm up so we should not be worried too much but this indicates there is some serious work to do for our boys.

 

[Sandeep]

India defending 192 and Pak conceding 281.....!

 

[Palti_hit]

India defending 192 and Pak conceding 281.....!

ye to opposite ho gya, india defended low score, pak batsman hammered english,

 

[UmarMalik]

If England chase this down they will be the biggest favourites to win the whole cup.

Not really.

 

[PTI tsunami]

It's a warm up they had one great innings which took the game away

 

[Sandeep]

ye to opposite ho gya, india defended low score, pak batsman hammered english,

and Pak bowlers got hammered too!
