ACC U-19 tournament

Boys go to Pakistan today

SPORTS REPORTER
A 14-member Bangladesh Under-19 team leaves here for Pakistan tonight to take part in the Asian Cricket Council Under-19 Tournament that starts in Lahore on October 31.
Led-by talented right-handed opener Nafees Iqbal, the Bangladesh side start their campaign on the opening day against hosts Pakistan.
Nafees' uncle and former national skipper Akram Khan will accompany the youth side as manager.
Off-spinner Kamrul Islam was the last minute inclusion into the team as senior selection committee decided to retain the services of leftarm slow bowler Enamul Haq jr. for the second Test to be held in Chittagong.
After spending five days with the young boys and watching them closely at BKSP, manager Akram Khan believed that the Bangladesh side would put up a better show than they did on any other previous occasion.
"I was impressed by the attitude of the players. They are very much positive and that's why I am hopeful that the boys will play good cricket on the tour," said the former captain, who led the national side to ICC Trophy glory.
The right-handed middle-order batsman was also impressed with the way new coach Richard McInnes was supervising the country's upcoming cricketers.
"I have talked to the coach many a time during the last five days. Boys are very much happy with their new coach and they had been working hard under his guidance for last three weeks," Akram said.
Meanwhile, it is going to be McInnes' first assignment. The young Australian joined the team on October 1.
But Akram said that the other three participating teams India, Sri Lanka and the hosts in the competition are very much strong. "India and Pakistan are very good sides with some talented players in their ranks. Actually the tour will help us for next year's Youth World Cup," he said.
