Pakistan v New Zealand | u19 WC Malaysia | 19/2/2008

[Saj]

Less than 3 and a half hours to go before this crucial group quaifier between reportedly the 2 strongest teams in this group.

New Zealand beat Zimbabwe in their opening encounter today and Pakistan already have an easy victory against Malaysia under their belt.

 

[12thMan]

Chak dey Pakistani U-19 team. The kiwis should learn to fly today

 

[pakistanbest]

PAKISTAN ZINDABAAD

I just saw the Kiwi ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOpg1yd2Tek

 

[infamous9383]

don't think kiwis have ever had a stong u19 system. Hopefully its another easy game for Pak but they do have a guy who has played for nz already so that should be interesting.

I think the batting has to better than last WC. It was 2-3 people performing here and there. Lat WC Pakistan bowling got the cup and they have to equalize that

Shehzad, Akmal and co look quite decent - Hoping they get us off to many good starts.

Should mention Usman Salahudin as well. Middle order batsman.

I just saw the Kiwi ad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOpg1yd2Tek

"The ad was parodied in PTV show 50-50 where the word Kiwi was replaced by word Biwi & word Parinda was replaced by Darinda. Replace the words & sing it."

[12thMan]

...ok now back to the match. When will it start?

I guess 1.5 hours to go. I didn't see any info on bbc and couple of days ago there was no info on cricinfo so I didn't bother checking it there as they are not covering it. ICC U19 website has no time on it http://iccevents.yahoo.com/matchesandscores/schedule.html so I go by Saj's post which was posted about 2 hours ago

Classic!
One of the Kiwi bowlers, Southee has played for the senior team, albeit in a Twenty20 match, so will be interesting to see how good he is in relation to our bowlers

 

[iZeeshan]

So how much longer to go?

 

[12thMan]

one hour to go

So Aamir confirms he is the Shoaib/Asif of the U-19 squad with his genuine fondness for the injury table.

A six and a four by A.Asad and the run rate goes up!

NZ hardly made 212 against ZIM, i suppose our bowling would be better.

[iafzal]

Bowling will now have to save us, maybe a repeat of WC final from last time????
if it was not for 28 extras we would be in even worse situation

 

[the true passionist]

well 156 all out now.

 

[muz]

156 all out - poor performance with the bat. Expected more from the likes of Akmal, Shehzad and Amin.

 

[FAM]

156 all out.

 

[prince_of_hell]

156 all out
