Pakistan U19 v India U19| 3rd Quarter Final U19 WC| Townsville| 20/08/12

[Bullet Drive]

We just have to see of the new ball. 20-30 is fine off 10 overs.

 

[MRSN]

Are you watching the match at all?

Even the best batsmen would strugge at this..

The ball is swinging very very much...

inexperience or whatever you say..they shouldn't have gone for shots on those two balls.

 

[Smiling Creed]

Why did Pakistan choose to bat first...if bowling is your potent weapon, go for kill.

 

[DOOSRA95]

You know your crap when you make indian bowlers look like Glenn Mcgrath and Malcolm Marshall.

Apparently it is swinging i thought it was more like shape from these bowlers wrist nothing special..............

 

[NeVerMind]

Imagine if our youngsters were playing on pitches like these day and day out. The ones that would survive would be the cream of the crop around the world for sure!

 

[MRSN]

Sandeep Sharma struggles to bowl to the right handers

 

[iRfaN_LA]

Why would we bat first when our strength is bowling? This sharma guy is an ok bowler but he does swing the ball in the first few overs

 

[hur rizvi]

disastrous start for pak U-19s

 

[Raz]

Sandeep Sharma bowling in the high 70s.

 

[Bullet Drive]

beautiful

 

[MRSN]

see he will struggle to the rh

 

[Bullet Drive]

Babar looking good out there.

 

[Raz]

Strays onto the pad and Babar flicks that through square leg for 4

 

[Raz]

9-2 after 3

 

[Bullet Drive]

Babar seems to have a very good technique.

 

[MRSN]

Babar Azam bats bit like Umar Akmal.. doesn't he?

 

[Bullet Drive]

9-2 after 3 overs. This is fine. No need to worry about the run rate. Once the swing goes for the Indians, they will be easy to play.

 

[hur rizvi]

Why would we bat first when our strength is bowling? This sharma guy is an ok bowler but he does swing the ball in the first few overs

batting first is not a bad decision but we have to get a decent score

 

[JilaWatan]

up to the C and VC

 

[Bullet Drive]

Waheed looking for quick singles!

 

[hur rizvi]

beauty from passi

 

[IgnitedMind]

Great ball from passi

 

[Bullet Drive]

Beauty from Passi!

 

[DOOSRA95]

This just a typical Aussie pitch where theirs is little bit early movement the top order should expect that at any level.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Passi too pumped up

 

[MRSN]

Passi is generating more bounce

 

[Raz]

Passi the other opening bowler bowling at same pace to Sandeep, just high 70s

 

[Down2Earth]

what shocking decision to bat first

 

[Eagle_Eye]

Azam looks untroubled by the swing..... Quite a rarety for a pakistani

 

[Bullet Drive]

Ian Chappel impressed with Babar & Umar

 

[Bullet Drive]

11-2 after 4. Things settling down. Good stuff. Absorbing pressure real well.

 

[saeed-sohail]

Sami and Haq playing drives in first over. Suicide.

 

[IgnitedMind]

Babar Azam and Umar ...how good batsmans are they?

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hopefully we have a massive partnership here and get to around 260. Will be a winning total.

 

[Bullet Drive]

to Babar

 

[IgnitedMind]

:4

 

[Raz]

Passi bowling a touch too wide and short of length. With the away-movement he's getting, really needs to be pitching it up and get it closer to these right-handers.

 

[hur rizvi]

Passi the other opening bowler bowling at same pace to Sandeep, just high 70s

you dont need pace to get pakistanis out bit of swing will get them out even if a bowler is bowling at 60mph

 

[Raz]

Checked punch from Babar and ball takes the inside edge and ball races away for 4

 

[Bullet Drive]

15-2

 

[hur rizvi]

beauty!!!

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Appealing at everything

 

[azimiqbal]

look guys dont worry, get past 15 overs without losing a wicket, then ball will stop swining as much!!"!!!!


have faith

 

[12cavalry]

Babar sometimes looks like Umar, especially when he plays a shot down leg side.

 

[Raz]

16-2 after 5

 

[Bullet Drive]

1 to Babar. Batting very nicely there

 

[Bullet Drive]

Swing seems to be lost. Good news.

 

[Bullet Drive]

look guys dont worry, get past 15 overs without losing a wicket, then ball will stop swining as much!!"!!!!


have faith

This!

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Same Damn Ad On Star Cricket

 

[IgnitedMind]

Good appealing

 

[hur rizvi]

bad shot

 

[Bullet Drive]

10(16)

 

[Bullet Drive]

17-2

 

[JilaWatan]

Same Damn Ad On Star Cricket

bas mehmaan navazi hai...
hahahahah

 

[Alexander]

Was just flicking over the channels and spotted this on sky sports. This Babar kid looks like a talent

 

[bforme]

AssalamuAlaikum and EID MUBARAK to all.
Bad decision to bat first....

 

[LegCutter]

16-2.

Should we be worried?

 

[Raz]

Quiet over for Pakistan, although few alarms.

17-2 after 6

 

[Bullet Drive]

My Sky Box has just randomly shut down

 

[Bullet Drive]

17-2 after 6. No need to worry. The ball has lost its swing and these two are looking good. The only thing will get em out now is if they give their wicket away.

 

[Alexander]

Pak don't need to be worried. This is India we are talking about. Early wickets are part and parcel of the game.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Babar leaving the ball well here

 

[Raz]

Sami and Inam must be kicking themselves now. Sandeep looking less threatening now.

 

[DOOSRA95]

pakistan will score about 180 in the match....................hard to see how they can defend that .....

 

[Eagle_Eye]

My Sky Box has just randomly shut down

Use skygo on iphone or ipad

 

[12cavalry]

Babar looks so solid. Would be a tragedy if he goes early

 

[Raz]

Sky sports gone down

 

[Bullet Drive]

Some swing these last few balls. Well played though.

 

[12cavalry]

Sami and Inam must be kicking themselves now. Sandeep looking less threatening now.

Dont know what they were thinking driving so early

 

[hur rizvi]

Sandeep sharma is very fine swing bowler , he can swing both ways

 

[Bullet Drive]

18-2 after 7 overs.

 

[Bullet Drive]

Hopefully our boys will play the spin well.

 

[Sledger]

Didn't this [Sharma] bowler play in the last WC too? Was hit for 6 by Hammad at a crucial time in the SF last time IIRC.

 

[12cavalry]

Umpire having a word with Sharma.

[Raz]

Dont know what they were thinking driving so early

Sami pretty much had to play at his, Inam chased his a bit.

 

[Sledger]

Will have to give up the first 10 overs to the bowlers here, interesting choice to bat given how much the ball is doing. Pakistan should settle for 20/2 or so in the 10.

 

[DOOSRA95]

sharma running on the danger zone ray illingworth having a chat,,,,,,,

 

[Pak_Lover]

Man these commies rate Praveen Kumar really high

 

[Sledger]

Are these guys trolling with this commentary?

"Looks like their hero is Praveen Kumar, even has the shirt hanging out like Praveen".
