India [272/9] beat Pakistan [69] by 203 runs in the ICC Under-19 World Cup semi-final

[DeadBall]

A couple of wickets and we will be in the untested Indian middle order.

 

[Abdul]

You mean Sikhs?

Manjot and Gill could be Sikhs.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

 

[UP]

Perfect time to get the main guy Gill and this kaptaan is bowling part-timers.

 

[DRsohail]

no specialist spinner.inzi has done a garbage of selection here once again.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

3 overs down. 7 more to sneak in.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Use to have decent spinners at u19... suddenly all dried up

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

no specialist spinner.inzi has done a garbage of selection here once again.

Why are we even surprised with this? Inzi is as clueless as anyone we've ever had in the CS position. The worst bit being that he's played the game until 2007 so should be at least in tune with how standard selections are made for a tournament

[Eagle_Eye]

3 overs down. 7 more to sneak in.

Don't forget 5 from arshad

 

[DRsohail]

would still be there but we know what happens ..

 

[DeadBall]

Just need to get Gill, the rest will fall.

 

[dauntless]

135 already need to restrict them under 230

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Just need to get Gill, the rest will fall.

This boy looks seriously good! Like even miles ahead of Virat Kohli....Who is this guy ??

 

[Taaya]

This is an excellent pitch for batting. We need to restrict them around 260-270 and we will be in with a shot.

 

[ManFan]

Captain Clueless. Is there not one street smart and capable teen in all of the PAK cricketing universe???

 

[DeadBall]

This boy looks seriously good! Like even miles ahead of Virat Kohli....Who is this guy ??

Looks on another level. Even Kohli wasn't so good at this age.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Gill like Kohli plays everything on the ground on both sides of the wicket. One way to be more consistent.

 

[Syed1]

6 overs of part-timers done

The Revolutionary Strikes Again

Brothers, Inzi isn't the U19 Chief Selector

We have another legend in charge of the U19 selections - Basit Ali.

 

[DeadBall]

Captain Clueless. Is there not one street smart and capable teen in all of the PAK cricketing universe???

I have been disappointed of his captaincy from what I have seen in the WC and AUS warm up tour. Can speak good English though.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan is allowing them to settle down.

 

[babajee]

Captain Clueless. Is there not one street smart and capable teen in all of the PAK cricketing universe???

Hassan to me seems like a genuine railu katta who is captain due to non cricketing reasons.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

The captain is Son of Moin Khan? If true, would have expected more cricketing nouse considering his dad and uncle both played for Pakistan..

 

[Syed1]

7 overs of part timers done

 

[NeVerMind]

Part time spinners doing the job here...

 

[Syed1]

The captain is Son of Moin Khan? If true, would have expected more cricketing nouse considering his dad and uncle both played for Pakistan..

No he is not..

 

[jnaveen1980]

That shot was carbon copy of Kohli's flick through off side.

 

[Rana]

India on top here

 

[DeadBall]

This is an excellent pitch for batting. We need to restrict them around 260-270 and we will be in with a shot.

Problem is we don't have any Gills or Shaws. Even our best batsman Zaryab strikes at 70 odd. However he has to usually comes in after a mini collapse. He did have a 100 plus SR innings against AUS, so there is hope.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Part time spinners doing the job here...

Anyone else in the team that can bowl spin?

 

[Rana]

Gill is going to slaughter Arshad here

 

[Syed1]

That shot was carbon copy of Kohli's flick through off side.

That's exactly what I was thinking

 

[DeadBall]

The captain is Son of Moin Khan? If true, would have expected more cricketing nouse considering his dad and uncle both played for Pakistan..

No, he is too fat and unfit for even nepotism to work.

 

[babajee]

Good. Let’s rip through them

 

[Syed1]

Meetha bowler is bakc

 

[NeVerMind]

Desai gone...Arshad takes the wicket but all due to pressure built by the part time bowlers

 

[ManFan]

I have been disappointed of his captaincy from what I have seen in the WC and AUS warm up tour. Can speak good English though.

If he quotes one verse of Shakespeare at a press conference, he will be made part of the playing XI in under 6 months.

 

[Syed1]

Bye bye

 

[DeadBall]

Yasssssssssssssssssss!!!

 

[ManFan]

No, he is too fat and unfit for even nepotism to work.

If his son scores, I actually don't care about his waistline or connections. That's how desperate I am as a PAK fan to see some young, hard-hitting, top-order batsman.

 

[Eagle_Eye]

No, he is too fat and unfit for even nepotism to work.

Ok )

 

[NeVerMind]

Run rate falls below 5

 

[DeadBall]

If he quotes one verse of Shakespeare at a press conference, he will be made part of the playing XI in under 6 months.

Coming from Pakistan I would think he would be more inclined to quote A Sheikhs Peer instead of Shakespeare.

 

[babajee]

If only we had taken our chances earlier.

Genuine fluke

 

[Sadevdesai]

This guy Gill can create mess at the end if we don’t get him out !!!

 

[dauntless]

Shubman is going to be a superstar in few years

 

[DeadBall]

If his son scores, I actually don't care about his waistline or connections. That's how desperate I am as a PAK fan to see some young, hard-hitting, top-order batsman.

Yeah could be a an even more rotund Sharjeel, and thats saying something. But if he can hit then it does not matter.

 

[ManFan]

Coming from Pakistan I would think he would be more inclined to quote A Sheikhs Peer instead of Shakespeare.

Too Shay.

 

[NeVerMind]

Arshad gets another...

 

[Rana]

Another one, Pakistan clawing it back

 

[DeadBall]

These NZ commies are such Indian cheerleaders. Trying for an IPL contract I suppose.

Jokes aside, this Gill is a serious talent. Must get him soon if we are to stand a chance.

 

[babajee]

Arshad is good

 

[jnaveen1980]

Pakistan is back. If they get Gill game is theirs.

 

[NeVerMind]

Riyan gone...wonderful bowling from Arshad

 

[jnaveen1980]

Shaw/Gill belong to seniors. Rest are genuinely under 19.

 

[fight_club]

Arshad on fire.. So not a liability as we thought we need musa or shaheen from the other end

 

[DeadBall]

Again the wrong person gone. However Gill will get desperate and make a mistake.

 

[Syed1]

Can we get them for 200?

 

[ManFan]

If Kaptaan brings another pacer in, it will be lights out for IND.

 

[jnaveen1980]

All 3 seamers are good for Pakistan.

 

[babajee]

Allah ka shukar hai ke we are playing an extra batsman... we might chase something today.

 

[NeVerMind]

Time to bring Shaheen from the other end I think...

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Can we get them for 200?

Bas Kar day Ab Jani, Woh Bhi Khelnay Ayen Hain

 

[DeadBall]

Boyses cranking it up.

 

[Syed1]

This is why a good bowling attack will always keep you in the game

 

[DeadBall]

Great over by Arshad.

 

[Syed1]

Arshad could be a hostile bowler if he adds a yard of pace

 

[babajee]

Arshad could be a hostile bowler if he adds a yard of pace

Liability...meetha bowler.. now could be hostile bowler.

Why so bipolar

 

[Syed1]

Liability...meetha bowler.. now could be hostile bowler.

Why so bipolar

Well he is still kinda meetha... I said could be hostile

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Arshad could be a hostile bowler if he adds a yard of pace

kafi Left right Ja Raha hay Boy Aaj

 

[NeVerMind]

Arshad strikes again!!! Abhishek gone

 

[babajee]

Another wicket

 

[Syed1]

Chandu with a misfield

 

[ahmedwaqas92]

Arshad on

 

[Syed1]

kafi Left right Ja Raha hay Boy Aaj

Yaar bhook lagi hai abhi kaam se ghar aya hoon... bhaksh do :

 

[DeadBall]

YEssssssssssssss

 

[NeVerMind]

Bring Shaheen at the other end please

 

[DeadBall]

Like I said, Its Gill or nothing.

 

[Chief Destroyer]

Arshad could be a hostile bowler if he adds a yard of pace

He can, quite easily. His bounce, accuracy and bowling acumen is already test class.

 

[DeadBall]

To paraphrase Mortal Combat .... "Finish This"

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

Arshad on

Yaar bhook lagi hai abhi kaam se ghar aya hoon... bhaksh do :

So you were saying Arshad is garbage ... )
