Twenty-six U19 women cricketers and as many emerging cricketers will undergo skills camps at the Lahore Country Club in Muridke from tomorrow.

During the six-day camp, the players will participate in numerous practice games and undergo training sessions with coaches to help them grasp different match scenarios and improve their skills.

The U19 skills camp follows this week’s U19 T20 Women’s Tournament held in Muridke, where five teams participated. The camp for emerging players will provide an opportunity for the selection committee to identify young, talented players, considering the busy schedule of women’s international cricket.

Chief Selector Saleem Jaffar: “It is heartening to see talented young women cricketers from various parts of the country. The U19 and emerging players’ camps will enable the coaches to refine the players’ techniques, resulting in them becoming more tactically and technically skillful cricketers.

“The upcoming camp will further enhance the participants’ skills. It has been designed to help them understand the requirements of modern-day cricket.”
