Indian batsmen batted well against Ireland U19 team India U19 team scored three hundred and one runs in the allotted 50 overs. Today the batsmen of the Indian team gave a great performance and it seems that they will easily win today's match. The batsmen of India U19 team batted exceptionally well, especially Musheer Khan and Uday Saharan, these two batsmen batted superbly. Musheer Khan scored 118 runs off 106 balls and Uday Saharan scored 75 runs off 84 balls. A target of 302 runs will not be easy for Ireland.  

Yes there is a good chance of India U19 setting the target of 250+ runs today. Because the bowling line-up of Ireland U19 team is very weak. India U-19 has so far collected 150 runs in 35 overs with the loss of 2 wickets. India U19 still have 8 wickets and 15 overs remaining. Now I think U19 batsmen should play shots to increase run rate. If the batsmen of India U-19 team can give a target of 250+ runs to Ireland U-19 team in today's match. India U19 team will have a very easy chance to win the match against Ireland U19 team

Both India and Australia are batting in their respective matches today in the Under 19 world cup. India have scored 104 runs with two wickets down in the 27th over. Indian Under 19 team lost their both openers Adarsh Singh and Arshin Kulkarni. They both got to some reasonable start but unable to carry on. Arshin Kulkarni made 32 runs. John McNally took both the wickets of Indian team. Rest none of the bowler is successful till now.

In the other match, Australia are looking very strong against the Zimbabwe team and have scored 163 in 30 overs by losing only one wicket. Sam Konstas was out at 45 and till now Harry Dixon is playing at 84.  He should make his century as he is playing well and truly deserve a century. I do not think Zimbabwe would have any role in this match and if Australia manages to score anything above 250 runs, it will be a one sided winner match by the Australian Under 19s team.

Ireland U19 team is not strong enough and chances of Ireland winning against a strong team like India is very low. And Indian team is playing very well today. Ireland won the toss and took the fielding decision. But they are not able to bowl well enough. India lost 1 wicket in 17 overs and collected 69 runs. I guess Team India can give 250+ target today.


Australia U19 team is batting very well against Zimbabwe. Australia team did not lose a single wicket in 17 overs. The two openers put on a partnership of 82 runs. Konstas scored 37 runs and Harry Dixon remained unbeaten on 42 runs.

India is leading the point table in its group. I don't think Ireland will be able to beat the Indian team. They are still new to cricket in the sense that thier national team hasn't been to good for now. It will be a one sided game and India will win it comfortably

Sri Lanka U19 has more points than Australia U19 but their net run rate is lower than Australia U19. However, Sri Lanka U19 team has played one match more than Australia U19 team as a result of which they are number one in the points table but in terms of net run rate Australia U19 team is at number one. Australia Under 19 vs Zimbabwe Under 19 is playing today in this match it is  say that Australia U19 will win. If Australia U19 win against Zimbabwe U19 today they will overtake Sri Lanka to move to number one in the points table and will be equal on points with Sri Lanka U19. Even their net run rate will be higher than Sri Lanka U19 team.

India U19 vs Ireland U19 team 15th match India U19 now come out to bat.They scored 41 runs in 11 overs with the loss of 1 wicket.India U19 team batsman Adarsh ​​Singh got out for 17 runs off 33 balls.Adarsh ​​Singh did not perform well in batting today.Arshin Kulkarni scored 16 runs from 30 balls.Musheer Khan scored 6 runs from 10 balls.John McNally of Ireland U19 team took 1 wicket with 18 runs from 3 overs.Oliver Riley gave 6 runs from 4 overs.

In India U19 vs Ireland U19 today's match I will favor India U19 because India U19 is performing very well. Compared to the way India U19 performed, Ireland U19 is very weak so today's match is expected to not be very competitive. India U19 team is very likely to win today's match against Ireland. The batsmen of India U19 team are batting and the opening pairs have got off to a great start. I have seen India U19 team play against Bangladesh U19 team, they performed very well in that match. Let's finally see how many runs the India under 19 team can give to Ireland in target today's match.

I also think that Australia 19 can come up. Because if we see the net run rate of Australia 19 so we will see that there is a big difference between Sri Lanka 19 and Australia 19. Australia 19 has 2.9 NRR and Australia has 1.611 NRR. And today is the second match of Australia 19 and I am sure that Australia will win from Zimbabwe and also win with a good margin and will make their NRR more better.
And from second match we all know that India 19 will win today match.

India Under-19s will be taking on Ireland Under-19s today in the U19 world cup match which is the 15th match of this tournament. Also Australia Under-19s will be playing against Zimbabwe Under-19s in the 16th match today.

India Under-19s and Ireland Under-19s are the top 2 teams in the Group A although Ireland have played 2 matches and lost one of them. This will be Indian team 2nd match and they have already won the first match. A win for India today will help them qualify for the next round.

Srilanka is the top team in the Group C. They have played two matches and won both of them. Australia has played one match only and have won that too. The team winning today can top the group and I believe these two teams will qualify from this group.

In ICC Under-19 World Cup 2024 we know that there are 4 groups. Every group has a leader which has won all the matches and on top. In Group A India U19 ( India has the match with Ireland U19 today and I hope India will win the match easily). In Group B there is England U19 after that in Group C there is  Srilanka U19 and at the end in the Group D there is Pakistan U19. And I really hope that these four teams will qualify for the Semifinals too. So let's see what will happen?

ICC U-19 WC

---

1) Namibia vs Sri Lanka

Namibia bowls beautifully, at least it has appeared so from the teams they have played against so far. Their batting has no strength and needs to be worked upon, as I was watching batting highlights of Namibia's inning, most of highlights were about SL picking their wickets.

2) WI vs Scotland

Scotland got excellent start with Dunk and Hegde's partnership, a good short inning from Price next, but after that their wickets fell without contributing much, and Scotland settled for 209.

Looked good score to me as U-19 teams aren't playing aggresive and even 250+ score is rare sight but today was a rare one as WI played so good that they would have made 300+ score if they weren't chasing.

WI played around 6 RR throughout their inning despite regular fall of wickets and eventually Andrew and Edward's 95 runs partnership brought them to shore with 14.5 overs remaining.

3) Nepal vs Pakistan

Nepal batted well than I expected, and gave chase of 198 to Pakistan. Pakistan had good start and looked like they will win it easily, but once their openers departed, things looked shuffling a bit, felt like match could go either way but then they got their feet firm on ground with Awais and Ahmad's partnership and won the match comfortably by end.

India U19 vs Ireland U19
Today India U19 team and Ireland U19 team are facing each other in the 15th match of U19 World Cup.These two teams are placed in the same group i.e. their group is A. In this group, India U19 team and Ireland U19 team are in good position where India U19 team is at number one and Ireland U19 team is at number two. However, in the previous match, Ireland U19 lost to Bangladesh, which may put them in a bit of a quandary as their opponents today are a strong India U19.

Yesterday was a disappointing day for the associate nations at the ICC Under-19 World Cup. They lost all three matches. Namibia had an excellent opportunity to pull out an upset win, but in the end they failed to do so. They bowled out Sri Lanka for just 133 runs, with Zacheo van Vuuren taking 4 wickets. But they were unable to chase down this small target and got bowled out for just 56 runs. In other matches, Nepal went down against Pakistan by 5 wickets, and then Scotland lost to West Indies by 5 wickets.

ICC announced the team of the year of all the formats but this is the post of  ODI so I will tell you about ODI, and the ODI team captain is Rohti Sharma and this is not an ICC team this is a BCCI team, and Travis Head also takes place in this team and I think the batting where he able to get this award is the match against India at World Cup final against India, and I think the best spinner in this team is Adam Zampa from Australia, and also Adm Zampa took place at 2022 bets team but on that time, the captain is Babar Azam.

Icc Under 19 World Cup is ongoing and 14th Match was between Nepal U19 vs Pakistan U19 is supposed to more interesting among rest od matches. Nepal started batting with avarage performance. Must run was collected by Bipin Rawal 39 only with 57 strike rate. Then batsman keep falling wickets. But in middle, all-rounder player performance was impressive and helped nepal to collected more run. But then its come to Pakistan, then started hitting boundaries. Azan Awais did 63 run and top batsman did 37 each of them. Aakash Chand bowled well as got 3 wickets. Moreover boundaries hitter Azan Awais is match of match what he deserves

Big teams are doing their usual business and having easy wins in this event with no upset is happened and things are looking we will have all top eight teams into next round where we will be able to have few entertaining matches because currently all associate countries are having troubling time in senior teams and as well in these youths as well which is clearly showing difference of quality.

Today Pakistan, West Indies and Sri Lanka won their respective matches just Sri Lankan batting have collapse, but they have done good recovery in bowling to bowled out Namibia by at 56 and won their match.

Tomorrow we will have Australia and India in action, which are also going to be easy games for the both big.

Nepal U19 team is much weaker than Pakistan U19 team but still Nepal U19 team tried their best to perform well against Pakistan. Pakistan's batsmen had to fight hard against the bowlers of Nepal U19 team to win the target of 198 runs given by Nepal. Nepal U19 team bowled very well if they could have given Pakistan more runs target then maybe Nepal U19 other team would have won today's match. Pakistan U19 team won by 5 wickets Congratulations to Pakistan team.

While Namibia were bowling and restricted Sri Lanka at the score of the 133 I was feeling we are going to have another worst situation for Islanders and their youths are also going to lose these matches, but their comeback was amazing, and they bring down all Namibian battling line up down on just 54 runs with only 9th and 10th spotted tail endears done some work and reach into double figure otherwise things were looking for the under 35, but they bring good resistance and approach at the score of 50+ which was scored by Sri Lankan Supun Waduge good win for them, and now they are leading their group by 4 points with next game against Australia could be interested in the both teams.

Batting first against Pakistan U19 in Group D, Nepal U19 managed to score 197 runs in 50 overs but Pakistan U19 lost 5 wickets in the chase to reach the set target in 48 overs. In this group, Pakistan and New Zealand won two matches each while Nepal and Afghanistan both lost two matches each. Pakistan U19 is definitely a strong team in this group. In today's match Pakistan's Azan Awais performance was really amazing he finally won the match from undefeated and score 63 by today's innings. However, it has to be said that the performance of the Nepal team was not consistent. None of their batsmen could score well.
