Miles In England Under-19 Squad Again

3 October 2013

Miles Hammond has been named in the England Under-19 squad for a tri-series against Pakistan and the United Arab Emirates in the UAE during December.

The talented 17-year-old, who represented Gloucestershire in all three domestic competitions this season, is a hugely promising off-spinner and middle-order batsman.

He played for England Under-19s against Pakistan and Bangladesh this summer and can now look forward to being involved in a series that will lead directly into the ICC Under-19 World Cup, also in the UAE, next February.

Former Gloucestershire skipper David Graveney, now Chairman of Selectors for the England Development Programme, said:  “We have two competitive Under-19 tours, which will be an excellent opportunity for development and also the testing of skills of our best young players under tournament pressure in challenging conditions.”

England U-19s squad: Tom Barber (Hampshire), Ed Barnard (Worcestershire), Karl Carver (Yorkshire), Joe Clarke (Worcestershire), Ben Duckett (Northamptonshire), Harry Finch (Sussex), Matthew Fisher (Yorkshire), Miles Hammond (Gloucestershire), Ryan Higgins (Middlesex), Robert Jones (Lancashire), Lewis McManus (Hampshire), Rob Sayer (Leicestershire), Will Rhodes (Yorkshire), Josh Shaw (Yorkshire), Dom Sibley (Surrey), Jonny Tattersall (Yorkshire), Kishen Velani (Essex), Jack Winslade (Surrey)
