CSA U19 CRICKET WEEK

This tour was a wonderful opportunity for our players to gain exposure and experience against some quality opposition. The experience’s we gained on this tour are going to be invaluable for the future, especially heading to the world cup in 13 months. Although the results didn’t go to plan, the improvement throughout the tournament was very obvious. This tour also highlighted our major areas of concern, our lack of discipline, mental strength and inability to concentrate for the length of time required at this level to be successful.
