2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup - West Indies

Great 50 from the captain. We are moving on and accelerating at the perfect time. If these two stay on, 270-280 definitely on the card. This is not an easy pitch to bat on.
 
This Sheikh Rasheed looks like a proper test match player.
 
Magnificent knock by the skipper, unfortunate way to get out. We are in good position and hope we can reach yet another final.
 
Fun fact :

Whoever played well in the U19 WC encounter never played or even close to play for India

Navneet Ricky 108 in 2000 SF.

Unmukt Chand 2012 Final.

Manjot Kalra 2018 Final. (Banned for age fudging).

Hopefully this changes in the future and more players from this as well as the previous setup (2020) may represent India.

I have been intrigued to do a comparison of players from the previous WCs and where are they now for the past few days but I am lazy.
 
Just checked Radhakrishnan’s age is 19 years 64 days. Is this not UNDER-19 World Cup?

 
Some finish this in the last 2 overs.

And Australia have Erling Haaland in their team. wow! :D
 
That was such a dramatic typical Indian end. We either go boom or poof! 290 is a huge total seeing nobody has scored 200 on this pitch and nobody has chased 252 or more in this tournament. Great batting, onto our bowlers.

If we look at it, I think 2016 & 2018 U19 WC gave us some really good players who are current players and future prospects

2016-
Rishabh Pant
Ishan Kishan
Avesh Khan
Khaleel Ahmed
Washington Sundar

2018-
Prithvi Shaw
Shubman Gill
Shivam Mavi
Kamlesh Nagarkoti
Riyan Parag
Abhishek Sharma
 
The porblem ofr us would be-the middle order post Virat Kohli hasnt really had a lot of battin to od.
Saurav Tiwary is an exciting propsoect,so is Ravinder Jadeja.Lets see how it goes.

Get Virat in seniors squad and make him Captain :happy
Well..
:facepalm

Nothing against Chand and his knock was superb under pressure but he needs to prove it yet. :) People now comparing him with Kohli and want to see him ODI side? Really? Where the fearsome tweak will he play?

We already have many waiting on bench


Was Just digging some old U19 Threads.

Quite Interesting to read some of the comments now.
 
India doing what they do best- choke in knockouts!

Allowing England to get going with the game. Ideally, England should never have been allowed to cross 150. The bowling is looking quit eoff-colour right now, especially with the famed Hangargekar sending down absolute dollies.

A score in excess of 200 and England would fancy their chances here.

Surely 190 is a little too much considering how the pitches have played thus far in the tournament. We nearly threw it away chasing 117 v/s Bangladesh. England are going to absolutely fancy their chances.
