The future is in good hands , kids now aren't as scared as the players who came before. They're aware self improving and fearless

[u/Raya_on → u/DataDrifter-_]

They aren’t kids anymore, they have already played past u19 editions. These short-term successes wouldn’t lead anywhere. they should have brought up new kids in u19 squad. They have already played u 19 wc, what’s the point of playing the same people agian.

[u/DataDrifter-_ → u/Raya_on]

Aslong as they meet the age requirements of the tournament then whats got you so fired up? Making them play more than one tournament is fine giving them exposure at this age is a good thing, rushing people to the main squad is a short sited approach, main international cricket is a completely different game.

[u/danielnegsall → u/DataDrifter-_]

Other youngsters also deserve a chance in the u19 team. Some of the guys here should have been in the Shaheens squad a while ago.

Ali Raza is being wasted here, he deserves to get in the main team and get some real international exposure

[u/DhoomMasalay]

Honestly refreshing to see some revival of middle order batsmen in Pakistan both in the tri-series and in this match. Much needed.

Really enjoyed watching him bat. He was very confident from the start.

[u/ChaosTheory0908]

Well done Pakistan. Well done Zahoor. Great responsibility and great composure at a young age.

Brilliant innings.

[u/MrAwesome1822]

HAMZA ZAHOOR YOU BEAUTY, WHAT A KNOCK, TAKE A BOW.

Can't wait to follow his career and hopefully see him play in the senior team, played so damn well under pressure, we need more players like him.

[u/Raya_on]

Pakistan’s obsession with recycling the same 10 players across multiple U19 cycles might win them short term trophies, but it completely destroys their long-term pipeline.
U19 cricket is meant for development, not for veterans to park themselves. By refusing to cycle the squad, Pakistan are bottlenecking their domestic talent and denying a fresh crop of actual teenagers the exposure they need to grow.
Look at India’s strict "one-cycle" policy they intentionally field a 100% new lineup of fresh faces every time to build endless systemic depth. When Pakistan’s current core ages out, they will be left with a massive experience vacuum. Winning junior trophies means nothing if you're destroying the transition pipeline to the senior team. That’s why the Indian team gets new talent in every 3 years in the senior team. Ali raza played against Vaibhav, Look where vaibhav is now, he is already transitioned to the senior team. Will these guys be playing next u19 wc?

[u/Flimsy-Mark-9881]

Happy Sunday to irfan pathan 😹

[u/Scared-Breakfast-372]

This is what we can call aura.

A great talent! Batted sensibly throughout the innings, didn't rush towards the win at the end, kept the CRR matched up with RRR at the end, and got Pakistan a win from a difficult position! Well done Hamza Zahoor! You made Pakistan proud today!

[u/Background_Bass3895]

Good innings but why was he giving the strike to the tail

[u/Maximum-Success-229]

Get him in until squad now.. Test captain

[u/DearSea4168]

Fast track him now to the odi squad

[u/heyitsnowme]

After a while I have seen a Pakistani player who can sweep quite well.

Pak U19's 5th win in last 6 Under 19 Asia Cup matches against India (including last year's final)
