ICC Men's Under-19 World Cup 2025/26

[MRY]

South africa U19  VS  Sri Lanka U19

The South african U19 team is in a very bad shape. They lost all three matches. But they got off to a good start in today's match.

South africa won the toss and decided to bat. At the end of 17 overs , South africa managed to collect  92 runs. The most interesting thing is that the Sri lankan bowlers are yet to pick up a single wicket. The performance of the sri lanka Anuradh 19 team is relatively good. They have won 2 out of 3 matches. But South Africa are likely to get their first win in this match.

Even though after having good start at very last match of thier u19 world cup journey still they lose against Sirilankan batting order and didn't show any major restrictions so that thier opponent struggle to filled the required, although van Schalkwyk deliver his 100 percent along side his partner James, but unfortunately bowling order has ruined thier hardwork and thus four over before with top notched century from Chamuditha Sirilankan stay on driving seat before officially head into world cup super four where Aussies has already being qualified and English, Indian were expected to catch the around.

The inability to be in the lead early because of poor performances in bowling is a good lesson the young players would learn about the mental state of developing our players. However, van Schalkwyk could do nothing with the mere dominance of batting by Sri Lanka, which won in a landslide the ticket to the next most important stage. The strategy established should be well drafted to compete with the likes of Australia and India which have proven their worth with a very high standard of play during this international tournament.

Both the teams can't qualify for the semi-finals, so it doesn't matter I guess. But then, the performance from South Africa Under-19s was extremely disappointing this time. Remember that this was a tournament being hosted by Zimbabwe, and therefore the conditions were very familiar for the Proteas. But they struggled throughout the tournament. And in their group, they are left with 0 points from 4 matches. Jorich Van Schalkwyk excelled once more. But the failure was mostly due to the poor performances from the other batsmen (especially Adnaan Lagadien, Muhammed Bulbulia and Armaan Manack).

The super six match between England Under-19s and New Zealand Under-19s is in progress, and at the moment, the England team is struggling. They could only score 179 runs in the 43 overs. I don't think they can make a match winning total in the next 7 overs. Although the England top order got the start but they could not carry on and got out at key moments. Ben Dawkins made 42 runs while Ben Mayes stood out with 53 runs.

They were slow throughout the innings and it never looked the like the strong England team who are unbeaten in the tornament. Will they face their first defeat against New Zealand ?

Well, it was a golden chance for the New Zealand Under-19s to win this match, but their batting collapsed and they were never in a position to chase 234 runs. They lost their first four wickets when the score was only 64. Those were the top NZ batsmen and it made things difficult for them.

Snehith Reddy made 47 runs and the lower order also tried to bat but the effort wasn't enough. They lost by 65 runs and it is a huge margin. England Under-19s remain unbeaten in this tournament.

[ZAINmalik75]

The super six match between England Under-19s and New Zealand Under-19s is in progress,

English u19 as expected won and continue his dominance at thier group standing by holding top spot with all green results and new Zealand after brutal defeats got out of the tournament. While at the same time we have crucial clash between Afghanistan and Ireland u19 which really mean for afghan as Irish already got knocked out and that positive results can keep Atalan hopes of being alive at world cup and thus securing victory make them level Sirilankan u19 in term of points, but winning by huge margin against Irish push them ahead to second spot and thus officially Afghanistan qualified for semifinals.

The international cricket team playing this Super Six match were England Under 19 and New Zealand Under 19,in which the New Zealand team faced a defeat by about 65 runs. The England team started this match with great understanding and seriousness. Their player Ben Dawkins also scored an innings of 42 runs and apart from that, all the players showed even better performances and provided a strong foundation to their team, which created a spirit and passion in their team and they gave a tough fight to the other team, which was the New Zealand team, which had to chase the target. Aryan Mann and Tom Jones If these two players had performed a little better and had stayed for a little longer, perhaps a spirit would have arisen in the rest of the players that they have to win this match and take their team forward, but this did not happen, which led to their team being defeated.

The population of New Zealand is only about 5% of that of England. Despite this, they are able to perform well at the top level cricket, partly due to influx of players from other countries (India, South Africa.etc). But in age group cricket, that option is not always available. And it is being reflected in the results. Thomas Rew failed this time for England, but there is no doubt that he is their best player. Yesterday it was left to Ben Mayes and Caleb Falconer to get England to a decent score. For New Zealand, Snehith Reddy scored 47. But apart from that no one else contributed.

Today, a match is being held between Bangladesh and Zimbabwe in the Super Six matches of the Under-19 World Cup, where Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat. Bangladesh has already scored 133 runs for the loss of three wickets. However, Azizul Hakim Tamim of the Bangladesh team is unbeaten on 50. However, both Bangladesh and Zimbabwe could not qualify for the semi-finals of the World Cup.
However, I would not say that Bangladesh is batting very comfortably in today's match, Bangladesh is batting under some kind of pressure. However, if Bangladesh can give Zimbabwe a target of 250 runs in today's match, then of course Bangladesh will have a higher chance of going there.

England Under-19s scored 234 runs in 50 overs it was not a tough total that they gave. In power play they scored 36 runs. Very poor batting in power play because it was the area where you can score more runs but they could not utilise it beneficially. Joseph Moores played many dots balls he scored just 20 runs in 40 balls. It was very disappointing performance after that some other players showed same thing so due to playing many dots balls they could not scored good. On the other hand New Zealand Under-19s showed more poor performance. No one could create highest runs, only one player scored 47 runs  the other players scored little runs and gave back to back wickets. They bowled well but couldn't perform well in batting line and that's why in a inning both sides performance metter because one side game can't change the game and can't bring a win.

Perhaps the most important game for this World Cup is going to be played today between Pakistan Under-19s and India Under-19s. We can treat this match as a Quarterfinal as the team winning this match is highly likely to move to the Semi Final and the team that loses this Super Six game may be out of the tornament.

Pakistan is in the third position with four points, they need to win this match with a good run rate in order to overtake the Indian team and take the 2nd spot. It won't be easy, but it's not impossible.

Pakistan is in the third position with four points, they need to win this match with a good run rate in order to overtake the Indian team and take the 2nd spot. It won't be easy, but it's not impossible.

Well, since Pakistan has 2 points less and also they have a lower run rate than India, they not only have to win but win by a big margin so that they can not only get 2 points but also make their run rate better than India.

To know how hard it would be for Pakistan, it is as if Pakistan bat first, they have to score around 250 runs and beat India by 100 runs or so. If Pakistan is chasing a target of 250, they have to chase it in 30 overs. So you can see these targets are very tough and it will not be easy for Pakistan Under 19 to beat the Indian Under 19 team by such a big margin.

However, I would not say that Bangladesh is batting very comfortably in today's match, Bangladesh is batting under some kind of pressure. However, if Bangladesh can give Zimbabwe a target of 250 runs in today's match, then of course Bangladesh will have a higher chance of going there.

In the end, Bangladesh U19 team scored 253 runs, which was enough to win against Zimbabwe U19 team. However, the bowling line was better than the batting line of Bangladesh, especially Iqbal Hossain Emon bowled well, he took 5 wickets for 24 runs in 10 overs, this is where Zimbabwe U19 fell behind. In the end, Bangladesh U19 team won by a huge margin of 74 runs, but this victory did not benefit Bangladesh because Bangladesh U19 team was already out of the tournament, but Bangladesh U19 improved in the points table.

Today will be the last match of the Super Six group stage, today will be the match between India U19 and Pakistan U19 team. Today's match is very important for Pakistan U19 team, because if India can win then India U19 will directly qualify for the semi-finals. But if Pakistan U19 wants to play semi-finals then they have to win by a big margin and be ahead in net run rate. But I think it will be difficult for Pakistan to beat India by a big margin. Pakistan U19 won the toss and decided to bowl. Let's see which team can win today.

Last game of Super Sixes in Group B, Pakistan U19 won toss and chose to bowl first, India U19 managed a good start, but sudden fall of 3 wickets bringing Pakistan U19 back into game, now at the end of 15 overs, India U19 are 75 for 3. Now it seems like this game is balanced with most chances India U19 will be qualified for the last four 4.

Australia U19, Afghanistan U19 from Group A and England U19 from Group B already have their spots into semifinals. This will be complete lineup with India U19 is superior in NRR which will help them for having their spot but any miracle performance may help Pakistan U19 with they need to wrap India quickly and then chase that target quickly.

Pakistan U19 bowlers got three early wickets in first 9 overs but since then Vedant Trivedi and Vihaan Malhotra are firmly standing on the crease and scoring runs for there team. India U19 team lost third wicket of Aaron George in ninth over but since then no wicket has gone down and India U19 team score is 105 runs in 22 overs. If India U19 team can take score to 200 then if will be tough ask for Pakistan U19 to qualify for the next round. Pakistan at the moment desperately need to break the ongoing partnership.

Pakistan Under-19s choose to field first, and it turned out to be a good decision by them. They haven't let the Indian batsmen play with freedom and have put them tight by taking wickets and not giving away any free runs. Captain Ayush Mhatre got out on zero; however, Vedant Trivedi made a good 68 runs and helped to reach over 200 runs.

With almost 4 overs left in the innings, even if they made 10 runs an over then they may reach to over a 250 runs. I think Pakistan should fancy their chances of winning this match, but they have to chase it like a T20 match to improve their run rate.

Well, India Under-19s ended up making 252 runs. I don't call it bad at all and i think it will be difficult for the Pakistan to chase them. In order to qualify for the Semi final, they need to chase these runs in 33.3 overs.

Chasing this big task for the qualification, Sameer Minhas got out early making 9 runs only. Since then Hamza Zahoor and Usman Khan are fighting for their team. As long as Pakistan doesn't lose wickets there is still a chance for them however we can't expect them to bat for 30 odd overs

Pakistan were so close to win this game, even in their batting, they not looking for the big shots, they were trying to keep it calm and slow and keep wickets in hand.

There was almost up to 90 percent of chances for Pakistan to win this game but due to some poor reasons and pressure, at the end India is in the Semi_Final. If Pakistan win that game instead of India there might be Pakistan in the Semi Final. However, if was a good journey for Pakistan in this season of Under 19s World Cup. Sarfraz was the coach and he was very disappointed on the way Pakistan Under 19 journey ended today.

This is the 36th match of the series, which is a Super Six match between India Under-19 and Pakistan Under-19. In this, the Indian team got the opportunity to bat first, in which they showed their brilliant performance and their players achieved a great target of 252 runs. Vedant Trivedi scored 68 runs and the rest played together like a team work and proved that together they can do anything and in the same way this team proved it in this match. If we talk about the Pakistan team, they also tried their best to win this match and achieve this target, but they failed. Usman Khan scored 66 runs and supporting him, Farhan Yousaf scored 38 run. Apart from this no one else put in any special performance, but still they scored 194 run which meant that they faced failure and the India Under 19 team got a brilliant victory.

Honestly till 3 down for 151 at 29th over I was sure about thier win even at 40th over because settle batter were on crease and they just need 100 more runs before head into semifinals and kick Indian out of the tournament, but surprisingly within matter of blink rest of team struggle again spin and collapse hardly which is completely unacceptable for us like they givenaway or vanished the only golden opportunity to the super 4 by themselves which isn't defining thier class which we have seen throughout recent Asia cup. Totally disappointing performance

Totally disappointing performance 

Consistency is not one of the strengths with the Pakistani team (be it the men's, women's or the age group teams). At 29.3 overs, they were 151/2 and were cruising comfortably towards the target. This is when Farhan Yousaf got out. What followed was a complete collapse and Pakistan got bowled out after scoring 43 more runs. Khilan Patel and Ayush Mhatre were responsible from the Indian side, with RS Ambrish and Henil Patel playing their part. With the Super 6 matches completed, Pakistan is out of the tournament now. India U-19 will take on Afghanistan U-19 at Harare on 4th February for the semi-finals.
