***Official*** Under-19 World Cup- South Africa 2024

[Kenneth Viljoen]

Even Allan Donald really likes the look of Maphaka, he'll be playing for the Proteas soon.

Donald excited at opportunity to work with young talent Maphaka at Lions

Allan Donald was already missing his grandchild and home in general, so the prospect of returning to South Africa and working with the DP World (Central Gauteng) Lions was enticing enough, and then he saw Kwena Maphaka up close.

Ja, I reckon we could see him in senior side before the year is out.

Maphaka is an absolute beast. Pace and swing, he is a massive talent.

I'm pleased we got close, considering our top 3 talents all bombed (Thorne with the ball, Dorne and Johnson with the bat). I knew Jewel Andrew is talented for someone who has just turned 17, but that was exceptional. I now see why he has already been selected for Regional FC cricket.

I would also add that our two spinning all-rounders in Sealy and Edwards looked like excellent spinners in their own right, not just rollers or darters that we sometimes pack our under-19 teams with. Good signs.

I know he didn't score a lot runs in this game but Jordan Johnson looks very good

 

[Kenneth Viljoen]

One of them was the keeper taking off the gloves and pads to turn over his arm

That would be Lhuan-dre Pretorius , another brilliant left hander , I think he can also make it at professional level.

In place of? Plenty of bowling talent going around, nice to see. I would probably hope they give him an extra year or two to develop.

He is crazy talented. But he was way too attacking today, needs to remember to pace an innings.

First impression of him; he looks like a good reader of the game and passionate

Half of them were batting like Xavier Marshall, loaded with talent, but absent of a brain.

That innings from Jewel reminded me a lot of Nicholas Pooran's knock at the U19 WC a few years back maybe 2014 ..one man demolition job

In UAE.

That batch of cricketers gave us Tage and Motie

If any of the Saffas know of Barney Simon, the DJ, Dewan Marais is his nephew.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

We are bowling in the pads. Got to just keep it simple. Cant let India off the hook so soon here.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

One of the most terrible piece of umpiring I’ve ever seen. The foot clearly landed behind the line (more than half of the shoe) and catch got taken but umpire calling it no ball. Totally rubbish.

Ahmed strikes for England. Scotland 28/1 (9.2 ov)

 

[Aidan11]

Ahmed gets two in the over. 28/2.

 

[Aidan11]

175 to win. Hopefully not too difficult to chase.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Pandey 1-1 (1)

@ashley bach

I already like the look of this guy. Slow left arm orthodox, but bowls it quicker through the air.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He strikes again! Leg stump out of the ground.

A good wicket to wicket bowler he is. One to watch out for in the future. Saumy Pandey

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Bangladesh are tottering. A stranglehold dished out by the slow bowlers of India. No intent from the batsmen.
