Squad Announced for European Cricket Championships 2024

Jersey Cricket announce an youthful squad for the European Cricket Championships in Malaga, Spain being held between 12th – 14th October. Jersey have been drawn against last years finalists Netherlands along with Italy, Sweden and Norway.

All fixtures are played in the T10 format and will be televised live online via the European Cricket Network YouTube channel. Last year Jersey progressed through their group to gain a place in the championship week.

Following the recent conclusion of the ICC CWC Challenge League A tournament in Kenya, a large number of players are either unavailable, rested due to workload management or have work commitments. Therefore, only seamer Dan Birrell and all-rounder Stan Norman retain their places in a new look squad that includes a number of our U19s cricketers who will be taking part in the U19 World Cup Qualifiers next summer.

Head Coach Paul Hutchison said “I’m really looking forward to working with some other players who currently sit outside the group that recently toured Zimbabwe and Kenya. This opportunity gives these players first hand experience against good opponents. It’s a fast paced and unforgiving format which should provide great entertainment and learning opportunities”.

Squad

Barney Aston, Dan Birrell, Toby Britton, Chris Carnegie, Elliot Corbel, Beau Gurner, Jack Kemp, Dylan Kotedia, Stan Norman, Theo Pullman & Scott Simpson.
