Hasrat Gill and Samara Dulvin are among the 15 players selected for the Australian women's U19 squad, which will embark on a tour to Sri Lanka for a tri-nation tournament.
During this tour, Australia will compete in four T20 matches, with the first scheduled for March 28, followed by two One-Day matches in April. The squad was selected following the Lanning versus Perry Series and the Under-19 National Championships last year, aiming to provide players with valuable experience in preparation for the 2025 ICC Under-19 Women's T20 World Cup in Malaysia. Sonya Thompson, Head of National Development at Cricket Australia, stated, "The tri-series in Sri Lanka gives our under-19 squad a great development opportunity as part of our preparation for the T20 World Cup next year." She added, "The T20 matches will provide the squad with a great development opportunity ahead of the Under-19 T20 World Cup and we're also excited about the 50-over matches." Thompson also mentioned, "We are also looking to give players a chance to develop their leadership skills across the series." Australian U19 Women's Squad: 1.
