Don’t underestimate Momin Qamar either

 

[KingOfPakBreakfast]

Posters will be invested in the result, (and it would be great to win), but what I would love to see from the lads is

1) Resilience (knowing how to ‘suffer’ and coming out of those match periods w/ your mental strength intact),

2) Application (not being in two minds, committing to whatever they’re doing)

3) Expression (play without fear of consequence, I want to see the best versions of these kids)

I especially want to see Ali Hassan Baloch cut loose, he’s the one batting talent amongst this crop that everyone has high hopes for. He got out cheaply on Friday, but inshAllah this is his time!

 

[Omer2002]

Don’t underestimate Momin Qamar either

He cant even get in the team along with hufaiza.i think are trump.cards

 

[BouncerGuy]

I think Pakistan should bring in a leggie... LEft arm chinaman, huzaifa

 

[gazza619]

Don’t underestimate Momin Qamar either

Is he proper?

 

[Rana]

Is he proper?

He’s not one from your 3 teams

 

[BouncerGuy]

This is gonna be a game of the tournament. Let's go boys

 

[Muhammad Saad]

I am near stadium and It looks like a washout due to rain.

 

[zahid01]

Shame if rain ruins the match

 

[zahid01]

Looked at dubai forecast morning showers then its ok we will inshallah get a game maybe reduced overs

 

[BouncerGuy]

Toss delayed due to rain..

 

[CricVet]

Hopefully at least 30 overs/side.

 

[Da_Future_Knick]

Any updates?

 

[BouncerGuy]

Any updates?

Weather looks clear... Toss might be coming soon

 

[BouncerGuy]

Pakistan U19 win the toss and opt to bowl first against India U19

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Abdul Subhan playing in place of Danial Ali Tarzan.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Hopefully we will get surya in the first over.

 

[zahid01]

I cant recall match being effected by rain in dubai in the past let's hope we get a full match

 

[BouncerGuy]

It will be 49 over per side game.

 

[harshjoshi87]

Apart from Mhatre & Sooryavanshi, no Indian player has played any first class cricket.

Apart from Mhatre & Sooryavanshi, no Indian player has played any first class cricket.

All straight from academies. Just school cricket experience.

 

[Usman Chadda]

I am near stadium and It looks like a washout due to rain.

I am nearby too, won’t rain further.

The sun is out.

 

[jnaveen1980]

AYush blows hot and cold usually. But he is only 17. WIll get better with time. MSD will take care of his growth

 

[Nasty Naz]

These exaggerated appeals are really eye roll worthy. Come on, tone it down.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Got a free link. But they muted the audio. As it is kids ODIs are going to be very boring. WIth no audio unwatchable

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

Lots of grass on pitch, recent rain would make it conducive for pace bowling, swing and seam and also bounce. Good toos to win for Pak.

Our guys need to ride out the storm for first 5 odd overs.

Am i wrong or saw Sarfratz Ahmad in the pak dugout?

 

[Red-Indian]

Any idea where this is showing in India? I'm stuck at home on a lazy Sunday and in the mood to watch some cricket.

I'm currently watching Syed Mushtaq Ali between Mumbai and Haryana and it's astonishing cricket. Mumbai are at 114/1 in 6.4 overs (!) in response to 235. Jaiswal and Sarfaraz utterly running riot. Run rate of near 20.

 

[Nasty Naz]

What a horror show for Sayyam so far. Horrific first over where he gave up 15 runs and dropped Suryavanshi on a tough but still pretty catchable one.

Pakistan bowlers keep bowling up and Indian batters just taking wild swings at it.

 

[m.shah]

Good start for India.
Life given to Suryavanshi against Ali Raza

Sony tv

 

[jnaveen1980]

Not surprisingly terrible camera. SOmeone who is drunk operating camera lol Panning it all over except where the ball went

 

[jnaveen1980]

Good start for India.
Life given to Suryavanshi against Ali Raza

He didn't even get close

 

[Nasty Naz]

Sayyam makes a comeback and redeems himself. Finally a couple of bowls bowled at good length instead of being pitched up and they end up getting the main threat in India.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Surya gone....

 

[m.shah]

Superb display by Indian openers

 

[Usman Chadda]

This Suryavanshi is a medium pace hitter I guess?

Mhatre looks a level above this hack to be honest, proper cricketing strokes.

 

[Red-Indian]

Sony tv

Thanks. I'll switch over at some point. Watch Mumbai-Haryana on Jio if you get a chance. Sarfaraz has gone bonkers and production quality is surprisingly decent.

 

[jnaveen1980]

SUryavanshi got out tamely.

 

[jnaveen1980]

lol Dude he smashed Siraj , Prasidh all bowled at high pace all over

 

[jnaveen1980]

Everyone that plays from ehre on have hardly any top level experience

 

[Usman Chadda]

lol Dude he smashed Siraj , Prasidh all bowled at high pace all over

Did he now, I guess he was just trying too hard here and in the Rising Stars game.

Gives the impression of getting beaten by pace when attempting his slogs.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Great to see the bowlers have adjusted and pulled their length back. They have been extremely punished anytime it's been pitched up.

This is called pace? lol.

 

[m.shah]

Ayush looks solid

 

[Usman Chadda]

This is called pace? lol.

Lol its as quick as Siraj and Prasidh

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Lol its as quick as Siraj and Prasidh

Prasidh can get it up to 148/149 kph.

Suryavanshi has got high pace in IPL

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Ali Raza wasting the new ball , should’ve employ Subhan by now

 

[jnaveen1980]

Total of 10 spectators for a pak india game. unusual.

 

[jnaveen1980]

I have no clue about other Indian batsmen and their skill.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Seyam is a complete bowler , pace , bounce, both way movements and late in swinging Yorkers as well.

 

[jnaveen1980]

This guy looks like sanju samson. May be from kerala

 

[Nasty Naz]

Same issues as all Pakistani bowlers... they can't put together a consistent over of line & length. Always a bad ball or two that ends up getting smashed.

Relax dude. They are 18 or 19. When your Shaheens, Raufs bowl all over the shop these guys can make mistakes. That is how you learn.

 

[BouncerGuy]

These 2 guys, Mhatre and George are looking like a solid talent... Great technique. No nonsense

 

[jnaveen1980]

He reminds me of Sanju with shots as well. But he is too raw even for under-19 level.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Looks like a tuk tuker. But scores at decent clip so far.

 

[m.shah]

Good talent overall on display. Surprisingly Pak is not playing Mohammad Huzaifa

 

[BouncerGuy]

What a good catch by keeper.... Seyam strikes again... Mhatre gone

 

[Muhammad Saad]

Seyam is a complete bowler , pace , bounce, both way movements and late in swinging Yorkers as well.

As I said so he is a complete bowler now I see why Sarfraz rates him higher than Ali Raza.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Seyam with another big breakthrough. Both openers gone.

He seems to have decent pace and can get the ball to move both ways. Intriguing prospect.

 

[jnaveen1980]

That's it Pakistan has got two fo the main wickets. Every one else is veyr ineperienced.

 

[Muhammad Saad]

What a good catch by keeper.... Seyam strikes again... Mhatre gone

You still think Seyam is slower than Ubaid?

 

[BouncerGuy]

You still think Seyam is slower than Ubaid?

Not faster though... equal maybe... But intelligent..

 

[m.shah]

That's it Pakistan has got two fo the main wickets. Every one else is veyr ineperienced.

George looks quality. You never doubt indian batting talent

 

[jnaveen1980]

Mhatre try to fetch it from otuside the off stump. Could have been ramped.

 

[jnaveen1980]

That's it. It is going to be a very very boring phase . These guys look like tuk tukers. Will check the score tomorrow.

 

[BouncerGuy]

Subhan is bowling way too fuller.... He needs to find his length asap

 

[BouncerGuy]

That was a nasty blow...

 

[Muhammad Saad]

That was a nasty blow...

Ali Raza is not getting the pace because the pitch is very damp and ball is holding up and sadly he doesn’t know how to move the ball , he is a Liability on such type of pitches.

They should have the open the bowling with Subhan and let the sun bake the pitch and then unleash Ali Raza.

 

[RidiculousMan]

India are off the a flyer. Anything over 300 will be difficult to chase

He was getting outswing in the day before with the new ball. I assume there wasn't much swing for him today. I didn't watched his spell today.

 

[khyberlion]

That was clearly nicked. Not sure why the umpire is telling them to calm down.

 

[saabir]

No handshake policy continued in youth cricket too. India taking a tough stance

 

[BouncerGuy]

Niqab doing all the damage now... 2 wickets for him so far in his 3 overs.... Superb

 

[Sunny_majoka]

Excellent catch, we had always produced excellent fielders at junior level

 

[CrIc_Mystique]

fab two catches the last two....

Good spiritied show by pak bowling and fielders so far....

At last a good sunday for Pak crick fans

 

[RidiculousMan]

This Kundu WK Batter reminds me of Pant. Stance and style is very similar

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Good to see fellow malayali under 19 kid, Aaron George do well

 

[RidiculousMan]

Counter attack from India. They are taking the momentum back.
