Pakistan scramble into U-15 final

Posted on 04/23/2008 in ICC Americas

West Indies easily beat an ICC Americas XI in the semi-finals of the CLICO International Under-15 Championship, setting up a final against Pakistan, who edged out Bangladesh in the other semi-final.

West Indies restricted ICC Americas to 166 in their 50 overs, with John Campbell doing most of the damage with 6 for 43 after they had seemed on course for a much higher total thanks to Abhijit Joshi (50) and Nitish Kumar (39). Kraigg Brathwaite was again amongst the runs for the West Indies. He followed his century against Malaysia with 65 not out, and with Raymond Senior making an unbeaten 68, the West Indies cruised to an eight-wicket win with 23 overs in hand.

Pakistan were strolling to victory over Bangladesh at 99 for 1 chasing 131, but from there they crashed to 120 for 8, Zazeef Ahmed grabbing 5 for 23, before their ninth-wicket pair scrambled them over the finishing line.

West Indies 168 for 2 (Senior 68, Brathwaite 65*) beat ICC Americas XI 166 (Joshi 50, Kumar 39; Campbell 6-43, Hodge 2-10) by eight wickets

Pakistan 132 for 8 (Mohammed Naeem 52, Ashan Ali 44; Zazeef Ahmed 5-23, Mohammed Asif Hasan 2-15) beat Bangladesh 131 (Ratnak Saha 46, Rakin Ahmed 28; Syed Kumail Abbas 3-34, Waqar Khan 2-8, Zafar Gohar 2-23) by two wickets

What happens to them on a senior level. Looking at U15 and U18 level Pakistan seems to be the best team but at International Level the team is continuously facing troubles.
