Winning against Sri Lanka will not be easy, I guess. Sri Lankan bowling is good enough. They won the toss and elected to bowl first. Australia stumbled in the beginning. At the end of 49 overs, Australia managed to collect 169 runs. It is not enough to win. However, if the Australian bowlers do well, they have a chance to win. Because I have not seen an experienced batsman in the Sri Lankan team.

Australia was able to give a target of 176 runs. And what you say is not enough to win, I agree. They could have easily won if they could have given a target of more than 200 rus. At the end of 25 overs, Sri Lanka scored 113 runs losing 4 wickets. Only 63 runs required in 25 overs to win. Sri Lanka may not have a problem winning this match.

Where are you watching these U19 cricket matches? Do you know any youtube channel or any site showing these matches live?

I don't know what's wrong with our local Sports channels. PTV Sports and A sports are showing the match between Scotland and WestIndies and they are not covering the match in which our country Pakistan is playing Sad

Right now we have most one-sided matches so just because of this no channels telecasting all matches West Indies won their match very easily against Scotland by 7 wickets with Scotland done just 95 runs and home team chase this very easily now Pakistan is also in win situation as they posted 315/9 and now Zimbabwe is 111/7 after 22 overs.

But, we have an upset game with Australia is on losing side as they were able to post just 175 runs in 50 overs and now Sri Lanka is on 119/4 with just 56 runs required in 23 overs with 6 wickets in hand mean they are on winning side against very strong Australian u19.

In the ICC Under-19 World Cup, two Group D matches will be played today. West Indies under-19 team will play teams against Scotland. And Australia under-19 team will play against Sri Lanka.
Scotland is an easy opponent for the West Indies. The Scottish players do not seem to be able to put up a resistance against the West Indies.
However, the match between Sri Lanka and Australia may be a bit competitive. I have watched a few matches in Sri Lanka. They play well enough. They will fight against Australia to win. However, there are many talented players in the Australian team. They will want to get full points from this match.

Totally 3 matches are scheduled for today. 2 matches from Group D and 1 match in Group C. In group C, Pakistan is facing Zimbabwe today and winners for today's matches as per my predictions are West Indies, Australia and Pakistan; very easy pick except Australia and Sri Lanka match. Still, I feel Australia Under 19 are too tough for Sri Lanka's current state in any format (they are economically not able to support/develop any sport/player).

Today, 3 matches of the Under-19 World Cup are being held now. The teams have decided to bowl after winning the toss in all the three matches. Is there any extra advantage on this pitch when batting with the target?
Australia is playing against Sri Lanka. At the end of 19 overs, they collected 63 runs. However, they lost 3 wickets. Apart from opener Kellaway, 3 top-order batsmen have been dismissed. The pitch seems to be bowler-friendly. If Australia able to give a target around 220, then maybe they will win this match easily.

Meanwhile Srilanka has won first ODI againest Zim and lead 3 match bilateral ODI series 1-0. Zim gave a good target by batting first i.e. 296. Sean Williams was top scorrer from Zim as he scored 100 runs. SL in reply chased it quite easily and finished the match in 48.3 overs. Good to see both SL and Zim giving good cricket.

I was surprised on seeing Zimbabwe really made a good score. Scoring near 300 runs in one day match for Zimbabwe was a big achievement. I thought they may upset Srilanka.
Pathum Nissanka, Dinesh Chandimal and Charith Asalanka , all of the scored above 70 runs and ruined Zimbabwe dreams of winning the first match.

On yesterday's match, 2020 title winner Bangladesh was bowled out for 97 runs by England. Usually Asia teams do struggle in Caribbean pitches hence let's see how Bangladesh is going to play on this edition of U19 world cup after such a humiliating start.

There is continued progress with Ireland team. Even against the top teams they've managed to play good cricket. One is the win against South Africa, next is the win on T20 match against Bangladesh. Most of the time matches played used to be so close giving hard competence. Sometimes it looks like lack of experienced players leading to loss of the match. Anyhow in this series, the second match is the turning point. If the match was played full, the result might've changed. Possibly by the next world cup it will be a game changer.

Ireland won the last match of the series against West Indies and thereby won the series 2-1. I guess this is their first ODI series victory against a full member. It was a very close match and at one point West Indies were struggling at 119/7. But then the Ireland bowlers gave away too many runs towards the end, allowing West Indies to put up a total in excess of 200. And while chasing this moderate target, there was a wobble from Ireland towards the end, before Craig Young managed to hit the winning runs.

Now Ireland has 68 points from 18 matches in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League. They have two more series remaining.

West Indies bad days are yet to be over rather they are getting worsen day by day. Ireland is a team that can do upset against test playing team but cant beat it in a bilateral series. This win clearly indicates the level of West Indies team these days. Very soon they have to give up there test playing status.

West Indies are batting after losing the toss against Ireland. West Indies scored 154 runs in 35 overs. But they lost 7 wickets. West Indies will probably lose all their wickets before collecting 200 runs. Ireland has a chance to win today's match.

West Indies managed to give a target of 213 runs. This is a good enough collection to fight against a team like Ireland. I think so. If the West Indies bowlers can perform well, then the West Indies have a chance to win.
Ireland's collection at the end of 9 overs 44/1. They lost the first wicket by zero runs. They need 169 in 41 overs to win. Both teams have a chance to win. Let's enjoy the match.

I am watching an ODI match after a long time. Zimbabwe set a huge target of 297 runs. I didn't expect Zimbabwe to score 296 runs against Sri Lanka. This shows how weak Sri Lankan bowling is. The performance of Williams, Chakabva, and Kaitano of the Zimbabwe team was good. Williams played a remarkable inning of 100 off 87 balls.
Sri Lanka now need 40 off 40 balls to win. Chandimal and Asalanka are now at the crease. Maybe Sri Lanka will win.

Sri Lankan opener Pathum Nissanka started the innings very well. And subsequent batsmen have also been able to maintain consistency. So Sri Lanka was able to easily defeat the Zimbabwe team. But Sri Lankan bowlers need to be more experienced. If a team like Zimbabwe can collect so much against them, it will be challenging for Sri Lanka to win against strong teams. They won't even win against Bangladesh and West Indies.

West Indies are batting after losing the toss against Ireland. West Indies scored 154 runs in 35 overs. But they lost 7 wickets. West Indies will probably lose all their wickets before collecting 200 runs. Ireland has a chance to win today's match.

Under 19 World Cup ODI is in progress but I think no one is watching those matches. Today Bangladesh will take on England and there is nothing special about this match. The reason i am posting for this is that if you remember last year in 2020 U19 world cup, the Bangladesh team defeated the Indian team in the final and won the WorldCup. That was a historic match and i ugre everyone to watch this match highlights on youtube and refresh their memories.

Past results are useless if the current team is unable to perform well.
I Just checked the score on espn and found that bangladesh are all out in this match against England scoring only 98 runs. Although they won the last world cup but the current team does not look any special to make any significant performance.

Cricket is progressing on its own, we cant say ICC has any role in spreading cricket to new countries of the world. One thing is clear that countries are no more interested in ODI and Test, focus is only on T20. Its better to restrict cricket to Test and T20 format only. Players are unable to keep form in so many formats.

Test matches still have some good future in long run, just ODI could be wiped out from scene because it's not having any good point to stay around with many leagues with test matches are going to be good earner for many countries and boards. With 100 League and 10 Leagues are also creating some good interest for fans around the globe, ODI's just a waste of time and energy.

ICC need to overhaul all set up and talk with all boards for better end of this format and introduction of some more and fruitful things for better earning can bring more technology and big market as right now we have nothing good in North and South America and in many Eastern European countries these formats can give better exposure to fans.

I think you are right. The amount of t20 franchise leagues we have right now is a lot compared to that 10 years ago. Now boards are investing in t20 cricket and so is ICC. t20 generates more revenue compared to other formats. It's also a short format which is enjoyable to the viewers.

Test cricket is still there because of its legacy. The resilience a team needs to win a test match over 5 days is unmatched. That is a reason why one-day cricket could render useless or uncompelling to people in the near future. Now with the addition of T-10 cricket, this has just become more of a viable option,.

By now most of the matches were supposed to be completed. But they got delayed as a result of the COVID issue. Anyway, there won't be another Super League from now on. The ICC bosses decided that they should rather focus on useless bilateral series and they have discontinued the Super League. So this one is the last edition. Anyway, the third and final match of the tour will be played today. If Ireland manages to win this match, then they are almost assured of a slot in the top-8. They have only two series remaining after this one. First one against Bangladesh, and then against New Zealand.

This win clearly means that Ireland has the potential to stay as top cricket team. Bilateral series are also important since that way players (new one specially) get opportunity to show there skills and based on these series leagues pick up players.
Meanwhile there is match b/w Zim and SL today. Its good to see Zim getting involved in international cricket. They are very much out of seen for so many years.
