The England and Wales Cricket Board has announced the squad for the NatWest England Under 19 Team to play Sri Lanka in the first two Test Matches of the three match series.
Three changes have been made to the squad which won the recent one-day
international series. Kadeer Ali (Worcestershire), Tim Phillips (Essex) and James Adams (Hampshire) are the new players. Ian Bell retains the captaincy of the side in the absence of Mark Wallace, who broke his thumb prior to the start of the One-Day International Series and is recovering from the injury.
The first match will take place at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, from Tuesday 15th - Friday 18th August.
