An emerging player group. England has one. They train and fast track players outside of the existing systems. I was involved with one of them that Broad and Finn came through on.
The EPG travels overseas, gets training in other countries and also is a feeder into the A teams and Test sides. It is not the same as an Academy. These are short, sharp camps, workshops and development trips - not a full-time Academy or HP Program.
Whatever it is called is irrelevant. What is important is that whoever runs it has the finances, understanding and freedom to fully develop those players who are selected.
