Is the kid who won Cricket Superstar playing?

And what about Pat Cummins?

Nah, too old.

EDIT: the cricket superstar kid.

Jesus. That's got to be a record % of an innings or summat.

The ha trick guy loads up like Lee but hos delivery stride is Mcgrath like.

Cameron Bancroft, 125 vs. Nepal U19 - YouTube

NZ drops Davidson and Nuttall and bats, (110kph?) Afghan seamers trapping them in front early. Now Young bowled!!

[straw man]

Glacial pace this from NZ U19. Best batsman (Young) went early so looks like the rest are just focused on batting through the overs and backing the bowlers to knock over Afghanistan for 120-150.

 

[straw man]

That's better - 20 off the last 3

 

[straw man]

Afghanistan went from 19/0 in reply to 26/5! Quinn elbowing his way to three wickets.

 

[Daemon]

Very dire. It's good though because I've got money on NZ

 

[straw man]

Afghanistan are going to do this if NZ aren't careful - 61 needed from 66 balls with 4 wickets in hand. Would be nice for Afghanistan 'n all but we don't want to be on the wrong end of this.

 

[Cruxdude]

The India Zimbabwe match is possibly turning in to a classic. Malcolm Lake is playing brilliantly and almost single handedly taking the fight to India. His attitude reminds me a lot of Andy Flower.

 

[Dan]

Australia crawled to a win over Ireland.

Dockrell's figures:
1/10 (10) with 6 maidens.

 

[TT Boy]

Far effort from Lake. Was batting 7 in the recent series against RSA and this is how he fared in his last 9 innings – 0, 6, 7, 8, 15, 9, 18, 7, 1.

de Kock will be disappointed, should have had back-to-back hundreds.

Afghans need 1 big over.

 

[Kippax]

Good chance we're watching the second Test player from this U19 World Cup right now. Why was Lake the fifth bowler though? Strategy or really pedestrian medium pace?

 

[TT Boy]

Looks like the Afghans are going to fall just short. 22 needed from 12.

 

[Hurricane]

NZ stave off embarassment.

 

[Spikey]

Matthew Quinn is a dick

 

[SteveNZ]

You know you're a dire side when you require a Cornwall player to rescue you.

 

[Kippax]

Mindful of this recent tie, I think Pakistan would probably take the Windies instead of India in a knockout game if they had the choice.

Could they actually play badly or lazily enough to tank to this Kiwi side without being ejected from the event might be a good point, Chinese and Korean badminton-style.

 

[Kippax]

Best action from today to make a couple of clips from, anyone? Seems quite a bit to choose from.
