U19 World Cup Results

Well Australia might have suffered at the hands of Sri Lanka in their own backyard but they can take solace from the fact that their colts have returned the favor to their counterparts by thrashing SL in the quarterfinals of the U19 WC.

The other results include England getting past Bangladesh, Pakistan past Zimbabwe and yes of course India defeating the West Indies. Piyush Chawla has as expected been great in the series but on the whole the entire Indian team has lived up to its favorites tag.

So the semifinal lineup now reads:
India v England
Pakistan v Australia

Dejavu anyone ??

Yes. Our seniors have given them just the right tonic they need by winning the series. Hope the kids follow in the footsteps.
