  • Afghanistan humiliate Pakistan in under-19 friendly


    Farid Ahmad Malak’s seven-wicket haul earned Afghanistan under-19 cricket team a historic victory over Pakistan in a 45 overs one-day friendly match played in Lahore, the capital of Punjab province, on Friday.
    Invited to bat first at the Gaddafi Stadium, Afghanistan set Pakistan a 267 runs target, with Hashmatullah Shaheedi hammering an unbeaten ton.
    Usman Ghani struck a half century, falling on 52. Other major runs contributors to the side were Ihsanullah with 34, Yunus Ahmadzai 28 and Nasir Ahmadzai 33, said Farid Hotak, the Afghanistan Cricket Board spokesman.
    In response to the target, the Pakistani under-19s succumbed to Malak’s fierce bowling attack, sending 7 batsmen back to the pavilion off 21 runs in his seven overs spell that earned him the man of the match award.
    The Pakistanis perished at 52 runs, 214 runs short of the target, in the 18th over, with Ziaur Rahman grabbing two wickets and Sharafuddin one.
    Afghan captain Nasir Jamal praised Farid Ahmad and Shaheedi for their outstanding performance.

    A line[Durrand line] of hatred that raised a wall between the two brothers -Hamid Karzai

    For generations, the Hindus of India prayed for deliverance from "the venom of the cobra, the teeth of the tiger and the vengeance of the Afghan."


    The men of Kábul and Khilj also went home; and whenever they were questioned about the Musulmáns of the Kohistán (the mountains), and how matters stood there, they said, "Don't call it Kohistán, but Afghánistán; for there is nothing there but Afgháns and disturbances." Thus it is clear that for this reason the people of the country call their home in their own language Afghánistán, and themselves Afgháns. The people of India call them Patán; but the reason for this is not known. But it occurs to me, that when, under the rule of Muhammadan sovereigns, Musulmáns first came to the city of Patná, and dwelt there, the people of India (for that reason) called them Patáns—but God knows!

      Curse of the dead rubber continues for even our u19 team. That was hell of a performance though should replace the Afghan XI with the U19 XI. So much talent there mashallah.
      It's enough that I know, Our time had a home, In your heart..Was a place..But the glass always breaks..

        Did you watch the game? How does Pakistan recruit its player? Through U-19?

          I checked it out on cricinfo. You have to be really extraordinary to be picked right out of the U19s, after U19 you go play first class cricket and then they see how you handle competitive cricket. Usually there are one or two guys from the U19s that make it to the National XI at some stage. For example, Sami Aslam in the current U19 is being considered a good batting prospect. He might make it to the XI one day.

          Its the pressure of playing at international level that determines if you can make it or not.

                I believe No channel broadcast the Under19 matches.

                But I would like to see Pakistan-Afghanistan series which include test matches aswell
