A thriller of a game is playing out now between HK U19s and Malaysia U19s with free coverage on Asia Cricket councils Facebook live

I'm talking commentary, multiple camera angles, stats, etc

So what happened here was HK U19 batted first and put 172 on the board. Malaysia U19 were 44/7 in 16.2 overs, but then recovered to 131/8 via a big partnership. It was then nervy times as Mohammad Arief and Sachinu Hettige slowly ticked the runs over while HK pressed for a wicket. They got it up to 163 with under 3 overs left in the innings, but then Nasrullah bowled the perfect yorker to end Arief's (63 off 88) resistance. With 4 needed to win in the final over, Nasrullah got another yorker through, this time the number 11, to secure a narrow narrow win for HK. Great game.

And here - Nepal, who have been dominant all tournament, shot Malaysia out for 87 and chased it in 16 overs. HK piled up 247/9 vs Singapore, and when the rain came, Singapore were 97/5 in 28.3 overs. HK declared winners by DLS (suck it Daemon)

Both Nepal and HK qualify for the U19 Asia Cup in November 2020 as a result of this. They both are now playing in the grand final now, winner of which will play in the 2019 U19 Asia Cup which is happening next month.

HK off to the worst possible start tho - 0/2 in 3 overs! Both wickets to Sagar Dhakal - a left arm spinner who has taken 10 wickets in 4 games until today at an average of 5. GG.

Was surprised to see George Dockrell not making the cut for Ireland's next Test match. Seemed to be developing into a solid all-rounder at international level. Anyone know exactly why he's currently being left out in the cold?

What I genuinely love about Associate cricket is when they broadcast a game with just one camera, so you alternate between behind the bowler's arm and behind the batsman

It's got a real old school feel and I kind of miss that in modern cricket

You should try watching a Sheffield Shield stream from the WACA. One camera generally mounted nowhere near the line of the pitch, real grainy video and audio, and commentary from some bloke who sounds like he has done nothing but smoke a couple packs of cigarettes a day for the last 50 years

Expect him to go full NSW and insist on having at least 6 specialist bowlers in the XI

Although tbh bizarre NSW selections long predate his tenure as coach there.

Are there any cricketers in Hong Kong good enough at either discipline to actually be called specialists though?

I just assume it's a team of Scott Kremerskothens

Anshy Rath looks a quality bat from what I've seen of him, always seems to be in the runs for HK.

Apart from that, you are probably pretty much spot on

Zimbabwe has been suspended by ICC. Sudden and shocking news. Had followed their cricket with interest and hence, a little sad on hearing this. Hope the players are taken care of. I am not sure if Zimbabwe will recover from this and play test cricket ever again.
