Anyone heard of Daniel Doram? well this yute is currently tearing it up for the Leewards u19s, and guess how old he is? 13 YEARS OLD!! :shock: , i think he might be the youngest kid to ever compete in the u19 competition, HERE is an article about him getting into the Leewards u19 team, he's a left-arm spinner and apparently he's quite tall for his age, HERE is a picture of him (the one without the hat),

His record so far has been very decent, he played in the last three day game and took 2 wickets in his only innings, he then took another two against Bim in the one day game and got three more against Trinidad today, it will be interesting to see how the yute develops, if he continues to do well at u19 level then he might make his senior debut by the time he's 15 to rhatid!! :lol: .

sobers..di'ze how Sobers start. by the time he was 13 everybody knew of Sobers. and 3 years leater he was in the westindies side, never to be dropped from the time he start.

Sobers also began as a left arm spinner...in the side when Valentine got injured. even at 17 Sobers blasted the Ozz attack in 1955, hitting 10 444444444 in an innings of 44 in his first or second test.

look at the hand on Dorams left arm. his hand is huge...

history repeats?

And where you been? i posted this ages ago man!! :lol: , but yes i will certainly be keeping an eye on this kid, the fact that he's already taking wickets at u19 level bodes well, by the time he's 15 there's a big chance he'll be playing for the Leewards senior team, then after that anything can happen, i wonder what Murali and Warne were doing aged 13? that's the standard this yute should endeavour to reach now.
