The NSW Under 15 cricket team toured Northern Territory in 1987 to play 3 games in Darwin, Katherine and Alice Springs.
Here’s the NSW team to the best of my memory:
Back Row – Jeff Evans (team manager in blue shirt), Mark Pacey, Justin Gale, Matthew Rudd, Henry Vera. The rest of the players in the back row were from Northern Territory.
Middle Row – Gavan Twining (Captain), Brett Kirk, Oliver Hodges, Brett Kirby, Brad McKay – then the Northern Territory team
Front Row – Bruce Graham, Matthew Cleary – then the Northern Territory team.
I remember Gary Jones being in the team however he doesn’t seem to be in the photo.
Ken Vowles (middle row, 2nd in from the right next to their team manager) played for Northern Territory. Vowles was a dynamic cricketer in the three games and went on to play for the Australian Under 19s team in 1989-1990.
