Cricket Australia has unveiled a 15-player squad for the upcoming Women’s Under-19 Tri-Series, which will be held in Brisbane from September 19. The squad includes three promising talents of Indian origin: Ribya Syan, Samara Dulvin and Hasrat Gill.
The Tri-Series will feature Australia, New Zealand and Sri Lanka, with each team playing four T20 matches and two One-Day matches. Former Australian player Kristen Beams will lead the coaching staff.
Syan, a right-arm fast-bowling all-rounder, has impressed with her bowling skills. She played a crucial role in Australia’s U-19 team’s victory over England in a T20 match earlier this year. Gill, another promising bowler, also made a significant impact during the tour of Sri Lanka, claiming four wickets in a match.
The inclusion of Syan, Dulvi and Gill highlights the growing diversity within Australian cricket and the contributions of players with Indian heritage. The Tri-Series will provide these young talents with an opportunity to showcase their skills on the international stage.
