News / Guy Walker in Gatorade’s Australian cricket promotion

Check out Signature Sport’s exciting young fast bowler Guy Walker featuring in Gatorade’s latest Australian cricket promotion.

Earlier today, Australia named a 15-man squad for next month’s World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, with Signature Sport’s Guy Walker featuring in a ferocious pace attack.

“The ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup is a wonderful opportunity for our country’s best young talent to perform on the international stage, following in the footsteps of players like Michael Clarke, Shane Watson and Mitchell Johnson, who have previously taken the field for Australia in the youth World Cup,” Cricket Australia National Talent Manager Greg Chappell said.

“The balance and flexibility of this squad is pleasing, containing a solid core of Australia’s most exciting cricketers. The depth of Australia’s fast bowling stocks is in good health and indicative of the high level of talent that continues to come through our system.”

Australia will compete in Group B of the tournament against Afghanistan, Bangladesh and Namibia with the top two teams progressing to the ICC U19 Cricket World Cup Super League quarter-finals.
