Jos selected for England Under 19s

King's College 1st XI cricket captain Jos Buttler has been selected for England Under 19s to play Bangladesh in July. He travels next week for a training camp at the National Cricket Performance Centre, Loughborough, before heading to Scarborough, the venue for the first Test, by coach on the afternoon of Saturday 4 July. The first Test Match of the two-test Friends Provident series starts on Monday 6 July, with the second Test to be played at the County Ground, Derby.

Jos has had a magnificent season with the bat, and last season contributed 227 in a record-breaking opening partnership of 340 in 49.3 overs against King's, Bruton. Last week he was one of three King's cricketers to appear in the Somerset 2nd XI fixture against Gloucestershire.
