A pair of young Western Australians will head to India next month, after being included in the Australian Under-19 squad for the multi-format tour.<\/p>\n
Allrounders Zed Hollick and Matthew Lough were included in the 16-player squad for the tour, which will feature matches at two venues in India.<\/p>\n
The squad was selected by the Youth National Selection Panel and features some of the most promising young talent from across Australia.<\/p>\n
The tour will feature three 50-over matches and two four-day matches against India Under 19s team in Rajkot and Ahmedabad.<\/p>\n
A top to middle-order batter, who also bowls off-spin, Lough\u2019s selection in the squad continues his stellar 12 months.<\/p>\n
Lough captained the WA Under 17 side at last season\u2019s National U17 Championship, where he was also named Player of the Tournament for his 326 runs and 11 wickets.<\/p>\n
He was also one of two players from WA to feature at the Cricket Australia U19 Men\u2019s Talent Camp in Adelaide earlier this year.<\/p>\n
Hollick is no stranger to representing his country at U19 level, having featured in last season\u2019s series in Queensland against India.<\/p>\n
The squad will be led by Head Coach Tim Nielsen, who is currently overseeing the Cricket Australia XI program against Bangladesh in Darwin.<\/p>\n
