[Down2Earth]

lets hope this post doesnt come back and make you sound like a imbecile

Don't worry, we'll make sure afghanistan get more than 50 runs :yk

[jusarrived]

Match will be interesting only if Pak chase

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Afghanistan chased well against BD but I think Pak is still too strong for them.

[IAJ]

That Afghanistan is in semi-final is itself a big achievement and their cricket is going in right direction and that is nice to see.

But I think Pakistan will be too strong for them, but let's wait and see what happens tomorrow inshaAllah.

[JilaWatan]

Are you sure Neo Cricket are broadcasting it? They are showing highlights of other matches

[Inswinger]

What time is it starting?

[Square Drive]

It started, Pakistan off to a good start. 52-0 in 10 overs| Babar Azam 24 off 31 balls not out| Sami Aslam 22 off 29 not out.

Zia ul Haq not playing, Pakistan XI: Babar Azam (C), Sami Aslam, Usman Qadir, Mohammad Nawaz (3), Umar Waheed, Imam-ul-Haq, Saad Ali, Ehsan Adil, Akhtar Waheed, Azizullah, Salman Afridi†

[Square Drive]

And that's :four to Sami Aslam.

[Square Drive]

Babar hits a 4 but gets out very next ball. Imam-ul-haq the new batsman, Pakistan 71-1 after16 overs.

[kungfu90]

Pakistan have the strongest batting line up in this competition.

[Square Drive]

Imam-Ul-Haq hits it down the ground for :4.

An interesting thing I've noticed- Sami Aslam and Imam ul Haq are both the same age, 16 years and 199 days.

[Square Drive]

:four more to Aslam.

[Square Drive]

Another :4, consecutive boundaries, our batsmen on fire. :afridi

[JilaWatan]

no live coverage =[

[Square Drive]

no live coverage =[

Yeah, unfortunately.

On a positive note, yet another :4 to Sami!

He's on :AAG

[JilaWatan]

man babar azam is gone

[wick94]

man i hate, whenever it's Pakistan vs Afghanistan idk who to support. I have this feeling where I want to support Pakistan but then think if Afghanistan win, it'll give them some recognition at the international stage then it's ok if they win

Maybe I get that feeling coz of the fact that I am from the Khyber province, and have pashto as my first language lol

[Square Drive]

man babar azam is gone

No worries, these 2 going along well at the moment, with Umar Waheed and Mohammad Nawaz to come. Shouldn't be a problem. :)

[Square Drive]

Haha, understandable then. :afridi

[Square Drive]

:six to Aslam, great strike!

[Myrmidon]

kids are terrible bowling set up

but good batsman

if they dont stop run rate will be hard

square drive considering you said great strike
are you watching the match live?

No buddy, I just typed what it said on cricinfo. :yk

Am searching for it, but it seems there are no streams for it.

[Myrmidon]

nope no live coverage

apparantly tv cameras not allowed into ground
thats what they said on afghan cricket page on fb

[Myrmidon]

sharafuddin kid seems to be bowling well

wouldnt surprise me if the batsmen are mesmerized by his ridiculously green eyes

they are that green lol

[Square Drive]

LOL, when did you see his eyes? :))

[Myrmidon]

facebook :))

friends with nearly all of the cricketers lol

hes mirwais ashrafs relation

[Square Drive]

Oh, I see...

[Myrmidon]

sami aslam kid is a beast

heres betting he will probably never make the pak team due to lack of sifarish

[Square Drive]

Hope he makes it. If Jamshed/Shehzad can, then he should be able to as well, as he's similar to them.

[sharaf katawazi]

2nd wicket down and the most important 1 sami aslam

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Should get 300

[insurge]

Maybe I get that feeling coz of the fact that I am from the Khyber province, and have pashto as my first language lol

You're a Pakistani. Easy decision. Support Afghans against other countries. :shakib

[Square Drive]

On ipod, cab someone please tell me the score?

[insurge]

207/2 in 38.2 overs

Imam ul haq 61*
Umar Waheed 28*

[asif9138]

kids are going good

[insurge]

Umar Waheed dropped on 50. Can be a costly blow.

46.1
Aftab Alam to Umar Waheed, no run, dropped straight in and out of mid-off's hands on the edge of the circle

268/3

[omairsiddiqui]

I know the pitch is flat and all, but these guys are amazing! I wonder if we're seeing some serious batting talent here. Wish this was being broadcasted!

[asif9138]

these kids are doing great job!

[omairsiddiqui]

DAMNIT! 297/3 after 50 Overs. Couldn't get to 300.

[insurge]

297/3 off 50

Umar Waheed 77*
Mohammad Nawaz 30*

More than enough to win with ease.

[thelandofthebravepeople]

Afghanistan lose wicket in first over.

[Zeeraq]

Bad start for us 23/1 after 2 overs

[insurge]

Not impressed by our opening pacers. Ehsan Adil 5 wides and 1 no ball in his 4 overs thus far, Azizullah over 6 run rate. Were pretty average against India too. Wish we had Zia ul haq...

Good thing Afghans are gifting us their wickets though, I don't think any of the wickets thus far were taken due to good bowling rather to silly mistakes.


LOL a guy just gets out and the next batsman does this first ball. Gives another chance next ball and is dropped:

7.3
Azizullah to Noor-ul-Haq, 2 runs, What are you doing, Rock? Short ball on middle, heaves everything at it, takes the top-edge and just goes over the 'keeper and slip

Why are you not impressed? They have taken 3 wickets and it's wrong to say Afghanistan have gifted away their wickets.

Afghans are chasing a massive total and they have no other chioice but to attack and you will make mistakes against good bowlers and that is what has happend.

Wides etc at this level are not unusual, especially when the ball swings and moves. Even in our senior team you have bowlers who bowl alot of wides so this is a learning curve for the youngsters.

And we have aldready dropped two catches and what can the bowlers do about that?

Afghans should have had half of the team back in the pavilion, before even 10 overs were bowled.

[IAJ]

Usman Qadir strikes in his first over.

55/4 after 10.3 overs

[Zeeraq]

Our seamers are getting more movement then Afghan seamers according to cricinfo

[IAJ]

Babar Azam strikes! Apparantly he bowled a doosra.

Afghanistan are 113/6 after 28 overs. Need another 184 to win from 22 overs.

Req. run rate 8.36.

[speed]

how fast is azizullah?

[shahidafridi123]

Not asking for link but is any channel showing this in Pakistan?

[bforme]

Azizullah is bowling some real pace according to cricinfo :akhtar

[bforme]

40.3
Azizullah to Aftab Alam, OUT, having led him to expect short-pitched deliveries, Aziz fires one into the stumps and its just too quick for Aftab, who stayed back in the crease and played down the wrong line
Aftab Alam b Azizullah 4 (6b 1x4 0x6) SR:
66.66

[Zeeraq]

pakistan might take it easy on them and only thrash them by 150 runs

Pakistan won by 151 runs, You're prediction was spot on :D

[tahir_dj]

pakistan might take it easy on them and only thrash them by 150 runs

Lol how accurate

[Azlan Khan]

Advanced to the finals. :D

[bforme]

40.5
Azizullah to Mohibullah Paak, OUT, short
outside off, swung round and goes high in the air to square leg, the substitute fielder (on in place of Usman Qadir) and Pakistan celebrate. They move forward to the ACC U-19 Asia Cup final on Sunday, where they will take on either India or Sri Lanka whoplay their semi-final tomorrow.

[IAJ]

Congratulations Pakistan. An emphatic win.

Hatred?


It was quite obvious that we would hammer the Afghans, I am a fan of them but they are so overrated on this forum.

[Bullet Drive]

Well done Pakistan. The finals should be good and hopefully we win. I don't care about this as much as the U-19 WC. When is that starting?

+1 if you dont support them, then you are labelled as anti-pashtun and an afghan hater

Team Misbah won the Asia Cup ... now its time for U19 Boys to do it
