Renshaw And Sangha Handed Leadership Roles As Australia A Hosts Sri Lanka A

By IANS News July 04, 2025 • 09:00 AM View: 531

Royal London Cup: Australia’s selectors have signaled a fresh approach to their talent pipeline, appointing Matt Renshaw and Jason Sangha as captains for the upcoming Australia A series against Sri Lanka A in Darwin.

Renshaw will lead the side in the three-match 50-over series starting Friday at Marrara Oval, while Sangha will take charge for the two four-day matches from July 13 and 20.

In a surprise move, selectors bypassed the experienced Nathan McSweeney—South Australia’s Sheffield Shield-winning skipper and a regular Australia A captain—to hand leadership opportunities to Renshaw and Sangha.
