ICC Champions Trophy 2025
-
Will Young finally gets his nose ahead of Devon in the line-up - Rachin gets hit in the face, Devon gets a reprieve - and has completely out-batted Will in the warm-up games.
I see he kept vs Afghanistan.
I think Devon is locked in to play now - alongside two of Rachin, Will and Tom Latham (I expect Tom to play).
The Fergburger bowled three overs - but, will they risk him over (probably) Duffy or O'Rourke?
I'd guess Conway, Young, Williamson, Mitchell, Latham, Phillips, Bracewell, Santner, Henry, Duffy, O'Rourke for the Pakistan game.

-
A big opening partnership is a must. Currently 11/0 off 2.3 overs.
-
BCs 30/0 off 5 overs.
-
Conway and Williamson gone now. BCs in trouble. 40/2 off 8.1 overs.
-
Young certainly looks unfazed by the ball gripping on the deck. Going to have to get a move on because these conditions tend to favour the second batting side.
-
Young should have his ton already. Poor fielding and the boundary padding moved so pretty obvious 4, unsure why it wasn't called.
-
Wonderful hundred to Young
-
Well done Young. A great first up ton
-
What a catch. That went high as.
Excellent innings by Young.
-
Latham very hit and miss for the last 3-4 overs. Not getting g the strike rotating either.

Difficult pitch
Taking spin
Holding up on the surface
Variable bounce especially at one end
Good luck scoring freely on a pitch like that
Latham has done very well to back up Young everyone else apart from these 2 so far has done fuck all. -
Latham with a beauty of a 6 and then next ball completely miss times it and almost lobs one to mid off.
