Pakistan U-19 vs Afghanistan U-19 | Match 1 | Group B | Buderim | 8/10/12

[Square Drive]

So here starts the 2012 U-19 WC!

Pakistan look favourites to win in the first game of the tournament which starts in 3 hours time, but the Afghans are extremely talented and can cause an upset. It will be exciting to see how Zia-ul-haq, Sami Aslam, Imam-ul-haq, Babar Azam do. Let's hope for a good game!

[Myrmidon]

afghan bowling is terrible


unless they can do something spectacular with bat
pak are certain to win

[Bullet Drive]

We should bowl first in all games and then chase..

[Zeeraq]

Any Channel telecasting it?

[Bullet Drive]

Not being shown.

[BoomBoomCricket]

Expecting a big win.

[Square Drive]

They should've at least telecasted it somewhere. Now I guess we have to follow it on Cricinfo.

[KingKhanWC]

Best of luck to both teams. I'm a big fan of Afghanistan cricket, their raw talent is as top drawer. Pakistan should be too good for them today.

[AFG_Brit]

If we at least make it a close game, that will be good enough. Best of luck to both teams.

[LastLaugh_PK]

U19 WC not being televised

Kya na-insafi hai

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Not going to be close even.

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Last time Pakistan won by 150 runs.

[LastLaugh_PK]

Last time somebody predicted that "we might go easy on them and beat them by 150 runs"

and we actually beat them by close to 150 runs lolol..

Yes it was down2earth who saif that.

[Pakistaniboy]

Would be interesting to see whether a speed gun is in place or not

[Square Drive]

Afghanistan wins the toss and elects to field first.

So we are batting first. Counting on Sami Aslam, Babar Azam, Imam-Ul-Haq, Umar Waheed, Saad Ali to get us to 300+.

Nope. The main broadcaster is ESPN Star Sports. Sky are getting rights from them.

[Pakistaniboy]

[Square Drive]

End of the first over, Pakistan 2-0 (both runs were wides).

[Pakistaniboy]
