Youth cricket resumes tomorrow
Sports Reporter
The National Youth Cricket Championship will begin tomorrow across the country after a two-year break The 23rd version of the competition called the Dhaka Bank Under-19 Cricket Tournament as the private commercial bank has a one-year contract with Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) to sponsor all under-19 cricket activities in the country. Details (http://www.thedailystar.net/2006/05/09/d60509040532.htm)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Its a good development. Howver I think they should make it Under-17 Cricket Tournament instead. So that new find from these tournament could be (age-wise) eligible for future national u-19 team, if selected. Now most likely we would find more 19 years olds who will not have enough time left to qualify for u-19 for next few years.
