**Official** U-19 World Cup 2004

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Xavier Marshall in great form. Not as great as Dhawan though.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Great result for england today vs what looked to be the form team in pakistan. The bowlers did very well although the batting is a bit of a concern.
With Plunkett / Stiff / Bresnan we have what looks to be a very good fast bowling lineup. Probably not best suited to the conditions but still doing well.

I'd back us to beat west indies and probably meet india in the final. Who wins that though is anyones guess.

 

[Armadillo]

India vs Pakistan in the semi final will be a really good match with both teams in brilliant form and it may sound stupid but which ever team wins this match will perhaps give a bit of an advantage
to their senior teams

You're right....that thought crossed my mind too, and yes,it is a stupid thought.

Rayadu banned for the semi final.

To be fair, his performances thus far haven't really been anywhere near what was expected, so how much will he be missed?

so i think india team should thank ICC.

 

[hyounis786]

pak v ind

pak v ind will be a very close encounter with both teams in very good form in this tourny.mansoor amjad looks in fine form and so does riaz afridi-top wicket taker so far in the world cup.on the other hand india's batting looks very superior. i think it will just go down as who plays on their day!


come on pakistan!!!

Actually maybe you could remove the blinkers and look at the real culprit - the man himself.

And the only thing you could possibly level at the ICC is for having a Code of Conduct - the one's who reported him were the umpires, and the man who sentenced him the Match Referee.

come on man this crazy.

Its ICC who is appointing the match referees and umpires and they are working under them aren't they.

so if a umpire or match referee act badly ICC is responsible

That leggie of yours turns it square...

 

[zohaib]

This lad Amjad according to Miandad is the best leggie hes seen since Warney,infact there was even a thought of giving him a test cap against Bangladesh last year it will be intresting to see how he performs against the indians in the semi-final.

 

[Rosh]

India 129/6 in 38 overs. I think the pressure has taken it's toll on the young lads.
Pakistan seems to be favourite to win this one, inc. the cup.

India 169 all out and pakistan are favorites to win this semi

And who's fault is it that Rayadu took so long for so few overs?

The ICCs?

 

[Muddaser]

pakistan win by 5 wickets with 5 overs to spare. did any of you guys see imran ali pasha bowl cause he is very similar to sami and was bowling quite quick.

 

[Choora]

Well i saw Amjad bowling, and i think Danish Kaneria's place in Pak senior team will soon be in danger!

 

[Bouncer]

For those who watched the game, how are Pakistani Fast Bowlers, how fast they bowled, and were they accurate too.?

 

[Choora]

Ali Imran is pacy, reminds me of Sami.

However i was more impressed by Riaz Afidi, he's vey accurate.

Is Riaz Afridi related to Shahid Afidi???

 

[ajaagarkarajaaja]

Why are Pakistani always talking about fast bowling?

You guys are putting too much stress on sheer speed, and the result is that cricketers are trying to bowl fast irrespective of the legitimacy of their bowling action.

No
