Lancashire trio named in England U19s squad
A 15-player squad has been selected for the England Men U19s’s four-match Youth ODI series against Pakistan Men U19s.
Three Lancashire players have been picked to represent the Young Lions in this series. Luke Hands and George Harris are available for the whole series, with Joe Moores available for the first ODI before joining up with England Lions for their T20 series against Sri Lanka.
Surrey’s Ralphie Albert will again captain the squad that includes a further nine players from the Test squad that defeated Pakistan by 10 runs at Arundel last week - Jack Auld, Thomas Edwards, Luke Hands, Isaac Mohammed, Joe Moores, Jack Nelson, Luke Symington, Charlie Taylor and Harry Wallace. Spin duo Albert and Nelson combined for all 10 wickets in the fourth innings to bowl the Young Lions to victory.
Neil Killeen will stand in as Head Coach for the series as Mike Yardy is with the England Men for the third Rothesay Test against Pakistan. Sam Billings will also join the coaching team for the series.
