I'm not so clued up on the U19's, but are we really this bad? Looks like I'm watching village cricketers vs International

India are cruising at 10 an over. Who chooses to bowl if the batting track is that good.

2 wickets in an over by Chimugoro

No we have a few good players I believe. Theyve played a lot of cricket and had a lot of prep.
But its the usual story in most of our teams, 4 or 5 decent guys then a few just off the pace. All these big teams have a few star quality players, ours are not quite that.

Two more wickets here and we will keep this score manageable.
Most of our wickets are a bowl first. Its usual to do that.

We are do or die in these two games, once again really tough to get behind them if amongst the squad selected from not our best players we then dont choose the best of that squad.

Eeish another nick. Not quite catchable.

Ya the keeper was caught flat footed. Could hsve made more of that. Tough chance.
I think Chimugoro and Mazai are something to work with.
Senzere is a decent all rounder.
Hlabangana is ok. Blignaut is ok. Captain not bad.

We had another half dozen or so lads that are better options that never got a look-in.

C'mon!!! Yes please.

Chimugoro has bowled pretty well. A few that are a bit wide, but other than that, he is not bad.
