ICC Under -19 World Cup in New Zealand

they did that ****** thing that everyone does and leave the powerplay for their tailenders

all they want is singles and they can't beat the field.
 
Well SL probably would have brought the field up with or without the powerplay.
Finally got the win, we made tough work of it but a wins a win.
 
Well played. Australia were the better side but credit to Sri Lanka. They showed a lot of fight and really made it a close game.
 
Aussies for the cup, I'd say. Though Pakistan is a formidable outfit.
If Pak wins the cup,they become the first team to have won it thrice.
 
Australia U19's class side, sure to grab the cup.

Pak U19's - they get too much excited and try to end quickly resulting unnecessary loss of wickets.



lol the seniors pwned 3-0 and again yesterday 3-0 :rtfl
 
Wow, Mitch Marsh you beauty. Stiff not to get the ton, must have been a great knock to watch.
 
Yep Marsh is a rare talent. I saw Clarke years ago in the U-19 WC, Marsh is miles better. I'm really impressed, he could very easily play top level cricket right now.
 
Marsh = Ponting + Sachin (maybe I am taking it too far.. :p)

He played about 4 pull-shots (ala Ponting) at the start and a back foot drive for 4 (ala Sachin) and used his feet against the spinners (ala Clarke).
 
Mind you, my Tassie boy, Tom Triffitt played brilliant under a lot of pressure. When Paine plays for Australia, Triffitt will be a good replacement.
