New Delhi, Aug 20 (IANS): Rajasthan Royals Wednesday announced its association with the South Australian Government to identify 15 young Indian cricketers and give them an opportunity to travel to Adelaide as part of Adelaide’s ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 program.

Youngsters born between Jan 1, 1997, and Dec 31, 1999, will qualify to enter the competition for a chance to be selected.

The program will reach out to students from schools from different parts of the country while the selection trials will be held in Delhi and Mumbai in late October and early November 2014 in the search to identify a group of 15 cricketers.
