New Zealand Under-19 51/1 in 10.0 Overs
Tom Jones: We would have bowled first as well. It’s about staying connected and executing today. We are proud of those first 15-20 overs and then let it slip a bit, we need to ensure we stay focussed throughout today. We have made a couple of changes as well. Playing with two spinners today.
Azizul Hakim Tamim: We are looking to bowl first because of the overhead conditions. We have learnt our lessons from the last game and looking forward to have a good game. We want to play our best cricket today. We have made 2 changes today.

Pitch report:
A high of 20 and a low of 15 (degrees) and 90 percent chance of rain. The outfield has taken enormous amount of water, so if you are looking to dive and slide, you need to be careful. The pitch has a two-paced nature to it and it is important to work into your innings. Bowlers will lick their lips with the humidity on offer and they will enjoy the swing. There will be quite a bit for the bowlers,” reckon Rohan Gavaskar and Ed Rainsford.
