Cricket Hong Kong, China are pleased to announce the 14-player squad to compete at the upcoming ACC U16 East Zone Cup 2023, which will be held in Malaysia later this week.
The tournament features 7 teams across two groups playing 35-over cricket. Hong Kong have been drawn into Group B with Indonesia, Maldives and Singapore.
“This tournament is an exciting opportunity for some of our talented youngsters coming through the system!” said CHK Pathways Coach Mark Farmer. “For most of these boys it will be their first cricket tour, let alone representing Hong Kong, China, so there will be a lot of opportunities to learn and grown from this experience.”
