That was pretty rotten luck for Zimbabwe. Bowl your overs inside three hours, get rewarded with a nasty pre-lunch burst of Curran and Mahmood.

A very gutsy slow burn in the engine room looks like it should limp South Africa into the quarters over Namibia now.

Sussex left-armer George Garton being praised by Ian Bishop as frighteningly fast in practice bowling during the innings break. "I don't give compliments like this lightly" he says.

So I think this is Namibia's television debut (unless their game with Bangladesh goes really well); it'll be against India.

Quarter-Final - TBC v TBC (D1 v A2)

haha...South Africa now too. No wonder Australia withdrew from this tournament and test series. Special congrats to both Nepal and Namibia. I'm really looking forward now to games involving Bangladesh v Namibia and Nepal. Both India and Bangladesh will have an easy route to the semi-finals, and are guaranteed a 4th place finish. Namibia and Nepal on the other hand are guaranteed an 8th place finish with one of them 7th (most likely) – which is an astonishing achievement. So far, the tournament has been really exciting despite Australia pulling-out. England may have been the outstanding team thus far, but their group was clearly the easiest of the lot.

Mahmood has serious pace and a really great repeatable action. Really like this U19 side, look like there are going to be some good players to come out of it.

Lawrence, Curran, Mahmood and Crane all look like guys who could be potential full honours prospects in the future.

Burnhan, Donald and Taylor should be very good county players as well.

NZ U19 on track to concede their third consecutive 200+ score bowling first.

On N Smith, nice shape, can see him bulking up into a Bracewell/Small type bowler, probably losing some of that nice swing in the process :/

To be honest this was not a great SA u/19 side but I`m still disappointed, even if this was not totally unexpected. I do think that the U/19 SA cricketer need more experience in sub-continent, slow pitch conditions much earlier. A lot of our players only learn to bat on slow pitches after reaching the SA 'A' and touring the world, which is much to late imo. I`m sure this is true for subcontinent players regarding the faster pitches of SA/Aus/Eng etc.
