MUMBAI, July 31: Ayush Mhatre will captain the Indian Under-19 team on a multi-format tour of Australia starting September 21, as the young side looks to build on its recent success in England. India will play three one-day matches and two four-day games against the Australian U-19 team, in what is expected to be a tough but valuable experience for the next generation of cricketers.
Mhatre, a stylish top-order batter, was one of the standout performers in England, where he finished as the leading run-scorer in the Youth Tests with 340 runs from four innings, including two centuries and a fifty.
The squad also features 14-year-old batting sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who turned heads during the England tour. He smashed 355 runs in the five-match ODI series, including the fastest recorded century in Youth ODI history — a blistering ton that underlined his rare talent. (IANS)
