Queensland Under-19s vs Cricket Web Under-19s
at Allan Border Field, Brisbane
Despite a compact hundred from Matt Luff, the rest of the side failed to turn up, falling to the medium pace of Matheson and excellent knocks from Kemp and Rabnott as Queensland recorded a confident eight-wicket victory. From a platform of 65 for nought, the Webheads failed to keep up the scoring rate, despite Luff seeking out the boundary eleven times.
Luff had the benefit of luck, but was by far the most confident batsmen of the tourists, daring to play shots and getting away with it for an unbeaten 113. He was, however, tied down by spinner Martel, who also came up with the vital wickets of a belligerent Ben Read and captain Zac Ritchie to set back the efforts of the tourists before the death.
As in Sydney, the bowling stuck to basics, without ever providing the necessary zip. After working opener Murray Nicol out with a short ball, gloved through to the keeper, Pares and Forner could not deliver pressure, nor could the change bowlers. Ten overs of spin were also desperately inefficient, and both Alex Kemp and Nathan Rabnott milked boundaries at a rapid rate to secure victory with eight overs to spare.

Excellent performace by Luff, not so excellent from the rest.
Probably need to get into second gear before we hit the national side.

got a couple of wickets in the first couple of U 19 games ever - however thats not really good enough if we want to be seriously challenging other U19 sudes
C'mon U19's, lets PULL OUR FINGER OUT!!

Australia Under-19s vs Cricket Web Under-19s
at Allan Border Field
Scorecard
Ball By Ball
The tour of Australia continues with dismal results, as Australia easily chased down 184 on a pitch suitable for quick, meaty bowlers with height. Matthew Day had a field day with the new ball, ripping out Luff and McMeekin as he beat them for pace, and only Ben Read was able to get on top of the bowlers, fighting back exquisitely from 60 for four.
It was a largely spineless performance from the young Webheads, though the quality of opening bowling prevented them from running away early. Mark Hopgood edged a couple of fours, but was eventually caught at second slip for thirteen, and though the captain survived the opening spell with Kerr, he went once a bowling change had been completed. In short, the Webheads were routed, and Chris Dwyer's 80-ball approach - yielding only 33 runs - was, while effective in not getting out and helping the Webheads to face fifty overs, not really helpful in the context of providing a damaging total.
As it turned out, Murphy and Sarna could canter to the total of 183. They hardly provided a chance, sticking together with grim composure as they added 178 for the first wicket and showed that the Youth Test matches would be difficult too. The only athletic exertion was the way they ran their singles; only twenty of the 176 runs came to the boundary, yet there was plenty of stick to be had for the spinners and a bleak Blake Donald. In short, a large question mark will accompany the team bus as the Webheads head for Melbourne tonight.
Cricket Web Under-19s 183 for nine (50 overs)
BS Read 40; SN Austin 3-45, MR Day 2-24, DJ Burns 2-39
Australia Under-19s 184 for one (45 overs)
AK Sarna 86*, D Murphy 86; GM Roberts 1-20 (8)

Not much else to say there but that was very poor. The batsmen didn't apply themselves and bowler still can't take any wickets regardless of who we bowl. Only positive is that our strike bowler Dunn back for the next couple games.

Poor effort with bat and ball there.

Shocking.
Need more resilience than that. Everyone went missing when the tough got going. Looking forward to a more gutsy effort in the second match.
