Being in Australia I am a little blinkered to young cricketers coming thro in other parts of the world but I think WA is producing a young bloke who will be the next sensation on the international scene
his name is Mitch Marsh
http://www.cricinfo.com/ausdomestic-09/content/current/player/272450.html
absolutely brilliant batsmen who has stepped into first class ranks with ease
belted 60 off 29 balls in a recent ODI for WA, that was after making a club record 208 for Fremantle
and have been told he can bowl at 140+
wont be long till he joins his older brother shaun in the green and gold
Any other countries have some rising talent worth looking out for??

Like you i tend to only watch my own country's player. In England we have a number of young players pushing through some you may have heard of ie: Joe Denly, Stephen Moore, Micheal Gale ( i think that is his name) and no doubt half a dozen South african's in the county scene :-)

James Taylor a shocking omission, probably in the England side within 18 months if he continues at his rate of improvement |

Don't know about best young cricketer but he certainly win the most Australian sounding name in the world award.

Not sure Shaun will be in the side when Mitch makes it ;) Massively overrated player IMO.

Who will win their 50th Aussie cap first: Mitch Marsh or Mitch Johnson?
:^0 |

Aamer by far and away the best.

Della,
He is obvoiusly a verry good cricketer...but his surname won't do him any harm...Cricket Australia is the greatest old boys club that I know....ie apart from Queensland Cricket which is an absolute disgrace!!!!! Criag McDermott now working for Cricket Australia...FFS! |

In England we have a number of young players pushing through some you may have heard of ie: Joe Denly, Stephen Moore, Micheal Gale ( i think that is his name) and no doubt half a dozen South african's in the county scene :-) Stephen moore is South African! Denly is hideously overrated. England are actually frighteningly low on young domestic talent at the moment. Hamilton-Brown has attracted a lot of attention but hasnt done too much yet, Sam Northeast is a name to watch out for. Broad's still young as is Rashid. Wayne Parnell looks like a future world class or even great player IMO. Phillip Hughes is one technical correction (albeit a big one) away from a lot of international runs. Umar Akmal looks the real deal to me, as does Aamer (however I don't believe that he's actually 17, it's just not physically possible!) Angelo Matthews from SL looks the real deal to me as a batsmen. India boast a lot of good young batsmen at the moment, check out the latest Mumbai batting phenomenon Ajinkya Rahane http://www.cricinfo.com/ci/content/player/277916.html, Chetashwar Pujara is another one to watch out for http://www.cricinfo.com/ci/content/player/32540.html As an all round talent you can't look past Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan. Barath is one that's been talked about for a while, and justifiably so by the looks of things. I first heard of him in an article after Lara's retirement when he brought him to England to watch the Lords test. A lot of good young players in the world right now, unfortunately not many of them are bowlers. |

Paul Stirling of Ireland. Seriously talented - especially if he loses 20 kgs.
|
|
By:
no mention of bopara?
|
|
By:
at 24 boparas pushing the 'young cricketer' title, also IMO he's not that good, i mean all he's really done so far is bully second rate attacks, hasn't done anything against the quality sides, was totally clueless against the aussies.
|
|
By:
Agreed, Paul could certainly lose a few pounds, thats for sure. Hopefully a busy winter with Ireland
U-19 World Cup 20/20 WC qualifiers, and hopefully the tournament should give him the chance, both through his own work, and what phil Simmons puts him through as well |
|
By:
Stirling has signed for Middlesex for next year.
|
|
By:
next 3 years actually. Middlesex and Irish players seem to have an affinity

it has to Bumbum Bejunana - the SA all rounder. averages 83 with bat, 16 per wicket in 72 first class games for both club & colts.
