Who sits down to watch a whole under-19 match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh? On Sports Central by DRM, a lot of people did. The live stream of Match 5 of the Women's U19 Tri-Nation Series, played at Iqbal Stadium in Faisalabad, had passed 150,000 views 18 hours after it went up. A long stream on this channel usually ends its first day with a few thousand.

The series brings together the under-19 women's sides of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka, and the description bills it as a look at the next generation of the women's game. This was Sri Lanka's turn against Bangladesh, after the hosts had already met Bangladesh earlier in the week. The full coverage runs from first ball to last, with the wickets and big shots inside it rather than cut out as highlights.

The comment section is small and quiet. One of the first notes comes from a Bangladeshi viewer watching in Riyadh, hoping the team plays good cricket.

The same day, the channel's other long streams, two Day 3 games from the President's Trophy Grade-I, stayed in the low thousands. Mahmudullah's fighting 73 for Bangladesh Champions against Australia Champions in the World Championship of Legends did better, at over 20,000 views. A practice Short followed Pakistan and Sri Lanka's senior men getting ready for their T20I series in Rawalpindi. Still, it was the teenagers in Faisalabad who carried the channel, on a day when its total views ran close to three times its usual pace.
