Bowlers can go out of the tournament with their heads held high, they fought like tigers.

Probably the last we'll see of most of the batsmen though

Somewhat Chance for redemption for India junior team to what seniors couldn't do. Beat Australia in the final...

For Pakistan we could get few bowlers out of it. Lot of spinners looked better than current spinners as well as couple of good fast bowlers....

And played trundler Amir Hasan?

Amir is way better than zeeshan atleast stick with better line and lengths

Wild ending and what a game.

It also shows you how cricket can be a game of inches. Zeeshan got an inside edge and it went on to hit the stumps and Pakistan won the game. Next game, he gets a similar inside edge and it goes to the boundary instead. Unfortunate but oh well, it happens.

Bowling attack clearly looks pretty fantastic and I think Minhas looks like the player with the most potential out of the group. He can play at a good SR in the middle order, really good bowler too. Shah/Raza/Zeeshan all look like great bowling prospects too. Will be interesting to track them going forward.

Really unlucky for the lads that boundary of the inside edge could of been bowled another day.

One thing the Aussies always seem to have is luck on their side at all levels.

No shame losing to Australia. The cricketing Gods always favors them in all important tournaments.

Beating them in any knockout game in any form of cricket should be treated as a great achievement.

ALi Raza did everything to clinch the game out of nowhere but luck favors the brave. Well done anyways. Good fight.

Parchi Zeeshan cost us this game. His robotic bowling almost cost us Bangladesh match.

Parchi Zeeshan cost us this game. His robotic bowling almost cost us Bangladesh match.

The biggest parchi was Haroon Arshad who did nothing in the whole tournament. Riazullah played 1 game and he did very well, still got dropped for this guy.
