All matches have been low scoring. the wickets are underprepared with hardly any consistency in the bounce,turn etc. Has ICC considered this as a joke that future Tendulkars, Kallis, laras et al are getting a raw deal?
Indian batting lineup is fragile. Even against PNG they struggled. They were lucky to beat Pak. Unmuk Chand played a rash shot very early in the innings. It is tough to win the cup. On positive side, these kids are not even 19 and will learn by experience. After being in team for a decade, Sehwag plays loose strokes in first few overs. Senior team was beaten black and blue in Aus yearly this year, still came back strong. Let's hope this U19 team does well in future and we get to see some players in senior team. Passi is great find
the batting looks week, it has not clicked in any of the matches and we have struggled to post a decent total or to chase.. i wonder our team is not going to get too far in this world cup...

dear they have already reached semi final, I think this is far enough, although winning the cup is the best,infact from now on it is any ones game , the team that plays the best on the particular day. Further wickets in Australia do support bowling hence scoring always is not easy unless it is a good batting track..

I agree with you. Batting looks so weak. They are in semifinal now and it's a surprising result for me.

which they would eventually reject as the evidence is insufficient to be proved in pakistani court of law!!!!!!!
IndU19 bowling has been very disciplined in Australia. It has bailed them out of batting failures. I hope captain Unmukt Chand a big match player comes good in the semis and finals and batsman H Vihari is also replaced.
