There are 3 U19 matches going on currently. SA vs WI - SA was all out for 143 and in response WI are 23/2 in 4.4 overs. Seems should a good competition if SA can pick more quick wickets. JPN was all out  for 115 runs and in response NIG are 55/1 in 11.1 overs and in third match UAE got all out batting first for 174 runs and Canada are now 20/1 in 5.2 overs.

@onrise it seems that South Africa’s chocking habit is not going away, and currently West Indies are only 59 runs away from victory and have 6 wickets in hand. Nigeria has comfortably won their match against Japan, and it’s a shame that we see such low scoring games in the World Cup. Further it seems that Canada may loose their match unless they start playing the big shots anyone watching this game or no?.

WI in the end win the match comfortably by 4 wickets and 8.2 overs to spare. Canada also won the match by 4 wickets and 7.3 overs to spare. The games like Japan and Nigeria who is into really into cricket may still has a long way to go before they can start making some good scores and bowl well.

West Indies did won this match easily but they would never forget the quarterfinal U19 which they lost by their own mistakes. With this they ended up as No. 5. They were much more capable of and don't deserve to be at such low position.

Rohit's gone for the rest of the matches so it's going to put more pressure on the team with their main batsmen resting now. Hardik also is not playing and Dhawan not included in the squad. Leaves options like Dube whose performance was mind blowing in T20.

T20 was still having to deal with just 20 overs but in ODI, 50 overs are just too much to handle with inexperienced batsmen. I don't see any good chances of winning unless the opening pair (which is going to be a new one) performs well.

This is a big blow to team India because he was in form batsman and a good player for ODI matches as he plays those long innings and also can convert 50 into 100 quite fast. Now with his absence this would mean that there would be another new opening pair between Rahul and somebody else. Also would be intertying to see who will open with Rahul now in ODI.

Sharmaji ka launda is the cutest player to watch in the Indian team with his effortless smile and equally effortless sixes. Yet, His journey has also been filled with such last-minute screw ups. He has always been a T20 star and his T20 performances were the reason that he found himself playing ODIs for India, and excelled at them too. Now just when he was cementing himself as a test player, comes another ill-timed injury.

Yet, Sharmaji still manages to smile through it and look like the typical friendly bhaiya who would come and hit a few sixes in our gully-cricket matches and just walk off with elan.

Loosing Rohit Sharma is a big blow but they can now give opportunities to other players and Prithvi Shaw might replace Rohit Sharma along with KL Rahul. Just two ODI and i am expecting a much better performance from New Zealand and hopefully they will challenge in the longer format.

Sharmaji plays the shots effortlessly and he can score huge sixes with ease but not sure about the cute part   .

After whitewashed by India during the T20 series (0-5), now New Zealand can focus their attention to the ODI series. Fortunately for them, there will be only 3 matches. Losing 0-3 is much better than losing 0-5, in my opinion. All of their strike bowlers are missing (Trent Boult, Lockie Ferguson, and Matt Henry) and as usual Tim Southee will lead the Kiwi cannon fodder against India.

Dude..This is not that "wink-wink" cute i am talking about. He does have this childish twinkle in the eye vibe about him. He gets out there to bat, whacks the ball around the park and goes back smiling, always happy having finished the day's work.

Yes now Shaw has a good chance to prove the selectors that he should also be picked if he is able to perform  better in the coming matches . I would always want Rohit to be in the team unless he is injured because the way he start his innings and continue is some i g to be learnt by other players . And when he is on pitch he can guide his partners and also the player automatically gets confidence seeing his effortless shorts and the runs he makes latter in his innings .

Yes, after the whitewash they should focus on the one-day series but I doubt they will be able to perform well. Their morale is down and the NZ player body language suggests a lack of confidence. With Rohit Sharma out of the one-day squad, Indian players will have a completely different approach towards the game.

I am sure Prithvi shaw will be given a chance as an opener with KL Rahul.

Much awaited contest of U19 world cup between India and Pak has started. Pakistan winning the toss decided to bat and lost Huraira very early and are now 27/1 in 5.3 overs. Haider is taking a lead and has played few fantastic shots in the early innings and would like to build the innings so that Pakistan can leverage the last 10 overs when they have wickets in hand.

So now they have a FIFTY-run partnership between Haider Ali 48* & Rohail Nazir 25*. | PAK 84/2 in 21.5 overs. Haider Ali is dominating the game for now. India needs to break this partnership.

Well bowled by Jaiswal Haider Ali out, partnership broken.

Pakistan has lost quick wickets after Haider got out and struggling at 163/7 in 38.3 overs. Nazir is the key now as batting at 59. If he gets good support from lower order they can bat for full 50 overs will cross 235+ runs. But if Nazir or other players get all out quickly then can be all out before 200 only. Indian bowling and fielding has being good so far.

The U19  Indian team has got good bowlers, I am sure this partnership won't last long. Few more tight overs and the wickets will start to fall. If India restrict them to score of 200 then Indian can win this match.

Really Indian U19 bowlers doing great there because Pakistan U19 already lost their 9 wickets for 172 runs. I think they can give target under 200 runs to India. So it will be very easy target to chase for Indian U19.

All out for 172, not even 200. This is a mediocre batting performance by th Pakistani team. This game can be easily won by the Indian side if the team does not lose early wickets and play sensibly without taking any risk.

Indian bowlers really bowled the disciplined line and length and as a result they were able to get the Pakistan team all out under 200 . Finally chasing the 173 runs target of Indian batsman started well and are batting at 81/0 in 19 overs . Both openers have not taken much risk and cruising quite well for their 173 runs target . Pakistan would be disappointed with their performance in this match .

[amishmanish]

This one is pretty much in the bag with Indian batsmen having stepped on the gas a bit for the last 5-6 overs. They are cruising at a comfortable 89 for no loss after 21 overs. Need just 84 runs now at less than 3 rpo. The senior Pakistan team routinely gets booted out at the hands of India in world cups. No surprise that the young padawans are also making a habit out of it..
