England Under-19 World Cup hopefuls Tom Scriven and Felix Organ have been awarded Hampshire scholarships.
The 18-year-old duo have featured prominently for Hampshire Academy over the previous two seasons, with West Ilsley-based Scriven totalling 633 runs at an average of 45.21 and Organ notching 586 runs at an average of 39.07 in the 2017 campaign.
Organ also made his first Hampshire First XI appearance this year, featuring in the side’s rain-dogged Specsavers County Championship draw against Middlesex at Uxbridge.
Both all-rounders are in an 18-man England Young Lions squad set to undertake a winter programme, which begins with a Tri-Series of ODIs against Namibia and South Africa in Potchefstroom, starting on November 23.
Both players hope to push claims for inclusion for the U19 World Cup which takes place in New Zealand in January.
