Whatever it takes!!!
Actually, BCCI is one of the few boards (maybe the only one) who don't allow their players to play more than 1 U19 WC even if they are eligible. Washy could have played 2 given he was only 16 when he played with the Pant, Kishan batch.

Her and gosch have 150 international caps between them or something absurd like that and are playing in an u19 WC. It's mental.

England's opening win over Zimbabawe seems unlikely to be topped for winning margin, after bowling the opposition out for 1/8 of the target.

It took me a while to even know the T20 U19 woman's WC was happening... I normally really enjoy the U19 stuff. Nice to see who the upcoming youngsters are.

Wait Kim Garth is playing for Australia now?

Not sure I think much of that tbh, doesn't exactly send a great message to those who are actually homegrown Australian domestic players

EDIT: to clarify it's not that I don't rate her, she is a skilful bowler. Just the optics of it, it invites morons to say "aUsTrAlIa ArE pOaChInG pLaYeRs" even though that isn't what actually happened here

In the under 19s there is a second group stage where results are carried forward into the same groups.

So Bangladesh upsetting Australia in their opener could well keep the latter out of the semi-finals. India play Australia tomorrow.

Qualifying from the other group should be something of a formality for England and NZ whose NRR should see them through even in the event of an upset. Rwanda upset Zimbabwe to be the only regional qualifier to make it through the first group stage in what is, I'm guessing, their first world tournament at any level in any sport.

Rwanda have won another game! This time over the West Indies.

Mariee Jose Tumukunde took 4-8 as the latter collapsed, then was herself run out as Rwanda nervously cobbled together 40/6 before getting to the total. Video here, featuring absurd roundarm action.

In the other group Bangladesh's advantage over Australia evaporated as the former lost to South Africa, so the semis are unlikely to be anything other than the usual Aus-NZ-India-England as is the norm in women's cricket.

Strange start there by Darcie Brown - just two runs from an excellent first five balls of the game, but then she overstepped twice in a row and the second free hit went for a massive six.

Yeah, Knott and particularly Laura Harris are big signings for them - definitely makes up for losing Kerr, Devine and Green to the Ferns squad.

Laura Harris is ridiculous when she has her eye in.

I've watched a couple of England's games. The Irish fielding was abysmal. I used to help coach a girl's team, they only once ever fielded as badly as that and they never did again. The lesser teams may struggle with the technical or power aspects, but there's no excuse for that level of fielding.

Sadly, I suspect there's at least 20 club sides in England and Australia who would offer more competition that half the teams in this tournament.
