England U20s

[Dileep]

Thanks for the confirmation

Routine start yesterday lads - good start

We seem to be struggling for decent keepers in this age group

Funny you should say that. At every age group Canada have several wonderful WK prospects. I think the Keeper-Batsman training programme is just too efficient, particularly when combined with a gifted talent (particularly keeping)
