Pakistan U19s (179) bow out of the ICC U19 World Cup with a narrow 1-wicket defeat to Australia U19s (181/9) in the 2nd Semi-Final

Just hope this parchi team doesn't make it to final. India will win against us by 200+ runs.
 
Azan looks more promising to me than that overrated Shahzaib.
 
india was able to invest in bringing foreign pace coaches like Dennis Lillee to their mega academies like MRF pace academy which slowly from late 90s to 2000s produced results 15-20 years later.

We on the other hand keep appointing local paindu dehatis who teach wrong technical aspects as well as mentality and mindset like this encouraging timidness and inept batting technique.
You can employ top 10 World Class Batsmen and bowlers as coaches but if the students are dull they will still fail.
 
Another catch grassed and this time in slips. Was a difficult one but these catches can sometimes make a huge difference.
 
Must say all 3 pacers are really good. And its a bouncy surface. No wonder captain Saad looks scared
 
Azan looks like the only batter who can play proper cricketing shots.
 
Top 4 all being left handed is also poor strategy. Should just look to bat 50 overs from here
 
over throw and 5 runs. Lucky. These 5 runs can prove to be important ones later on.
 
50 comes up for Pakistan after 17 overs. Need to build a partnership here or this batting line is gonna fold soon.
 
Sardar ji looks like a real trundler. Quite a contrast to what we've seen so far from pacers
 
Pakistan need to aim for atleast 90. We are currently struggling big time.
 
need 200 plus to make a case here to win. Aussie batters are good.
 
Real poor stroke under pressure from Ahmed. I was hoping he'll play long.
Australia look like a much better side and truly deserve to qualify
 
Ball not doing anything now. The last 10 overs have been very disappointing.
 
If OZ Colts can snap up Awais quickly, it'll be huge.

I don't think the rest are capable.
 
This Arshad boy is a good player of spin. Quite evident
 
Australia knocking Pakistan out of world cups. Never gets old.
 
Strike rate of 32 by Haroon. LOL.....These boys forgot to bat I guess.
 
Pak young players are product of out dated coaching manual , trying to play technically correct shot instead of going after bowling and actually offsetting the bowlers to bowl poor lines to them. Pak should look for young players with good eye hand coordination and tell them to blast off the bowlers right from the word go. You can never teach a guy to be technically correct on knee length bounce pitches with little lateral movement. They will learn nothing to perform on bouncy pitches with some movement. But if they have the aggression and guts coupled with hand eye coordination they will submit the bowlers in to bowling poor lines and then eventually scoring even more freely.
 
This should have been 2. Running is also very poor. This inning is going nowhere. As haroon is bowled. 5 down now.
 
Arafat Minhas now

Big hype Kid. Let’s see what he’s all about
 
"15" year old Haroon Arshad is clearly not good enough even for this level, yet.

Why was Riazullah dropped?
 
What was that by Arshad? It’s like he’s never faced anything above 65mph in his life!
 
Almost all of Pakistan batters are late on the ball. Even against spin. Late to judge length. Late to react. Remind me of me.


Aussie bowlers are top though. All of their frontliners are exciting.
 
You might as well make Misbah ul Haq the permanent u19 coach if this is the rubbish cricket you are adamant to play forever

Vilder hasn't impressed me that much. Beardman looks good
 
Cant wait to see sachin dhas and adarsh singh take on these aussie quicks . Should be a feast in the final
 
This team will not even score 30 against India. Whole team needs to be disposed bar Ubaid and 1~2 bowlers.
 
So nothing has changed, quality batting lineup will continue to be lacking in Pakistan cricket.
 
220 and I recon Pakistan will win this

It’s far away though

We better loose this match. Don't want to see these parchis got out under 30 against India and India chased by 3-4 overs.
 
This Minhas guy has the look/fitness of a proper athlete.

Good prospect

Tbh bro I don’t know about the politics. It’s u19 level, it’s just entertainment. Might as well see a India v Pakistan final
 
These 2 needs to build a partnership here. Batting looks easier now
 
Pakistan fighting back

This track has enough in it for both pace and spin

Who are our spinners?
 
This Straker guy will probably replace one of Cummins or Hazlewood at some point

Looks like a proper bowler

Are you for real bro?we crushed IND in the asia cup match.Dont be such a downer
 
The guy is doing the same thing again and again with his line and length. He has 4 fielders behind square for you even if he gets hit from that length

Why can’t these batsmen just be brave and step down the wicket to loft him in front or down the wicket? Poor, timid batting!
 
What Minhas did to Beardman…advance and take him on

That’s what you need to do to Straker. He will just keep you suffocated if you just stand and try to play him
