Jack & Kelly Selected By England U19s For Sri Lanka Series

Hampshire Academy prospects Eddie Jack and Dom Kelly have both been called up for the Young Lions' three game Youth ODI series against Sri Lanka

Hampshire's Eddie Jack and Dom Kelly have been selected by England Men Under-19s for their three game Youth ODI series against Sri Lanka, starting later this month.

They are part of a 16-player squad and are two of nine players who were a part of the winter’s ICC Men’s U19 World Cup in South Africa.

Essex's Luc Benkenstein will captain the side as Ben McKinney, who was captain at the World Cup, and Hamza Shaikh have not been considered with the option for them to appear in the three-day First-Class County Select XI match against West Indies in early July. The squad for the two-match Youth Test series is to be announced later this month.

We have selected an exciting squad for the series, with a blend of some players who are currently playing in the Vitality Blast and some younger players for whom it will be their first time in an Under-19s squad.

As always, it’s a great opportunity for the players to perform in an England Under-19 shirt and to experience international cricket.

Mike Yardy, England Men Under-19s’ Head Coach
