.I and most other purists will never totally accept this championship as long as CA continues to omit a red ball component. It does tho continue to produce a generation of white ball specialists. ...and rare records such as below.

Sydney teenager Oliver Davies (pic) has shattered records after hammering an extraordinary 115-ball double-century (207) on the opening day of the Under-19 National Championships in Adelaide. In a stunning display of power-hitting for NSW Metro, Davies bashed 17 maximums, incl. 6 in the one over, against  a hapless Northern Territory to register 4-406. Rising leggie Lloyd Pope skittled WA in reply for a measly 122.

Redback skipper Henry Dall (109) and vice-captain Bailey Capel (138) combined to smash WA. ACT accounted for Vic Country while Qld took care of Vic City. Tassie were too strong for  CAX1.

CA has named a 14-player Australia Under 19s squad for a four-match tour of Sri Lanka in January.. 

The squad, named following the 2018-19 CA Under 19 National Championships in Adelaide, will arrive in Colombo on 30 December to play three one-day matches and one three-day match against Sri Lanka Under 19s.

Included in the squad are the quartet of Will Sutherland,  Zac Evans, Jarrod Freeman and Bazter Holt  who all represented Australia at the Under 19 World Cup in New Zealand earlier this year and will enter the tour fresh from strong performances at the recently completed U19 National Championships in Adelaide.
