England U19's vs Australia U19's - Youth Ashes (part 2)

[Torz]

And they're back. Following on from England's tour down under in April this year, in which we saw a drawn test match and Australia take the ODI series 3-2, it's Australia's turn as the tourists. This series should play a key role in determining the squad for the World Cup in Jan-Feb 2016 - hosted by Bangladesh.

What better time to look to the future, when the current lot of seniors are far from inspiring?

Bar Jake Doran, heard good things about 'underager ' Sam Grimwade.

Any other names to keep an eye out for?

Will be good to see how he goes.

Are you getting over there Torz?

No, not for this one. May do Bangladesh though.

I've got no doubt all 3 of the Victorians [Harper, Grimwade, Pucovski] will play for Australia at some point in their careers.

They played a two day practice match against Unicorns over the last two nights (which they drew).

Unicorns 6 dec 334
Australia 156 (Doran made 50 odd*)
Unicorns 2 dec 91
Australia 2/168 Pucovski 53 not out, Page 48, Jewell 67 not out

Where'd you find the scores for that one? I knew they were playing, but didn't find any coverage. The England warm-up next door was on Cricinfo.

I know a few people involved in the team and over there who gave me scores.

Game 1 starts tonight. For those who didn't know Sam Harper is out of the tour (at this stage) with glandular fever.

Patrick Page has a broken toe from a net session too. I believe Matt Renshaw (Qld) has been added to the squad.

Early wicket for England, Pattison caught down the leg side for 1.

 

[Bishop]

A quality England seam line up, Mahmood has played a few county games for Lancashire. Bowls very fast.

Yep, thought he was the most impressive of their bowlers. Warner tends to swing it in at a bit slower pace.

E: They've raced to 1/100 off 22 overs. Gauci 55* (NSW) and Jewell 37* (TAS)

 

[Torz]

Excellent start to the tour by Australia.

8/373
J Gauci (NSW) 111
J Doran (NSW/TAS) 103
J Richardson (WA) 87
C Jewell (TAS) 37

 

[Bishop]

great start from the lads.

Interesting to note, the batsmen either failed 1,0,1,1 or went close to 100s (with the except of Jewell)

Parkinson was getting them to rip according to my mate who is there, reckons he had a few ridiculous balls, bowled Seymour around his legs i believe.

 

[corbies]

Get around him! Do you reckon he was thinking about the number when he got out Torz ?

Also nice to see another hundred by Doran to go with his 169 in the test down here. The hype may be justified.

Not sure. I think he was caught on the boundary in the last over of the day. Might've thought they'd declare overnight.

 

[Torz]

A few momentum swings on Day 2, I reckon the game could be decided in the first session of Day 3.

Australia ended up all out for 446 after David Grant (46*) and Liam Hatcher (36) put on 73 for the 9th wicket. Matt Parkinson, a leg spinner, took 6/130 (38 overs).

England got off to a strong start, getting to 1/143 before losing their middle order in quick fashion. A late partnership leaving the game evenly poised.

England - 5/242
J Richardson 3/38 (13)
L Hatcher 1/29 (11)
F Seymour 1/33 (10)

 

[lewigie]

so richardson made 87 and now has 3/38..

 

[Torz]

England have been bowled out for 392, giving Australia a lead of 54.

Wicket takers:
J Richardson 5/75 (26)
D Grant 2/62 (25.5)
F Seymour 2/41 (14)
L Hatcher 1/40 (16)

 

[The_Reaper]

Hogan probably won't go around next season so Richardson might be a sneaky chance for a shield debut

Would be good to see, but some stiff competition out there with Behrendorff, NCN, Mackin, Rimmington, Moody, Tye and Dixon all vying for spots. As far as I am aware, Duffield is still in WA too?

Duffield didn't get a contract this season. And you forgot Paris (if fit). There are plenty to choose from!

 

[Carbine Chaos]

WA's pace attack is always an interesting one, with Agar normally batting at 7 they can squeeze in 4 seamers. If this is the case I expect us to start the season with a battery of Behrendorff, Coulter-Nile, Mackin and Paris. Rimmington unlucky.

 

[eth-dog]

Also depends on Marsh's availability. If he doesn't play early tests, he'll bat at 6 and shuffle Whiteman and Agar ot 7 and 8 respectively, with NCN, Dorff and probably Rimmington as the attack.

 

[t_94]

Parkinson, the English leggie, seems like a decent prospect. Not that I've seen him bowl.
