*Official* Under 19s Tour of Africa

South African Under 19s will take part in their first tour of CWLand and their first overseas tour since the Youth World Cup in Sri Lanka. A lot of pressure will be the South African, after a disappointing World Cup, where they failed to make it past the group stages.

CW on the other hand will be looking to build on successful series against England and New Zealand in past 12 months. But many supporters also felt that CW have underperformed recently considering the large number of Under 19 players playing FC cricket.

Both side will have a lot to prove in these inaugural 3-match YODI and Youth Test Series.

Fixtures

YODIs
- 7 October in CW Oval,
- 9 October in Fardin Qayyumi CC
- 10 October at Pickford Reserve.

Youth Tests

8th Dec - Only Youth Test v Zimbabwe, Harare
11th Dec - 1st Youth Test v South Africa, Petoria
15th Dec - 2nd Youth Test v South Africa, Potchefstroom
18th Dec - 3rd Touth Test v South Africa, Benoni

We should have a test squad and a ODI squad instead of using one squad for both.

Tharmi, email has been replied to.

Sounds good, especially now I'm back from injury .

The South African squad should be named today from what the United Cricket Board are telling me.

But the Cricket Web Squad will be a couple days away. There is a couple spots up for graps, so we want to have a look at few players a bit closer while the Internationals are away.

Awsome sounds great!!

Looking forward to this even if I'm not selected in the squad, should be good to see the next generation performing internationally. Hope I do get picked though.

Much debate has occured, and a squad shall be announced upon confirmation from Jack.

0o0o0o exciting.
