Kerala's Mohammed Enaan Selected for India Under-19 Cricket Team
Mohammed Enaan, a rising star in Indian cricket, has earned a coveted spot on the under-19 national team for the upcoming multi-format home series against Australia. The announcement was made at the launch of the Kerala Cricket League (KCL), where Enaan's selection was met with thunderous applause.
Enaan's journey to the national team has been marked by consistent performances and hard work. Last season, he played a pivotal role in Kerala's under-19 cricket team qualifying for the second stage of the Cooch Behar Trophy cricket tournament. As the team's leading wicket-taker and a valuable contributor with the bat, Enaan's all-round abilities caught the attention of selectors.
In the Cooch Behar Trophy, Enaan's leg spin proved to be a formidable weapon, claiming 24 wickets. His batting prowess was equally impressive, as he scored over 200 runs. A memorable performance came in Kerala's victory against Rajasthan, where he took five wickets for 32 runs and scored an unbeaten 83.
Enaan's selection to the national team is a testament to his talent and dedication. He credits his coaches, P. Balachandran and Dinesh at the Athreya Cricket Academy, as well as his supportive teammates, for his success.
"I am feeling a bit excited and happy," said Enaan, a first-year B. Com student at Sree Kerala Varma College. "I have been representing Kerala in junior cricket for the last couple of seasons and I am grateful to my coaches and teammates."
Kerala's under-19 coach, S.S. Shine, believes Enaan has the potential to become a world-class bowler. "He is a bowler in the mould of Rashid Khan. His quick arm action makes it harder for the batters to pick him. I am not surprised at his selection," said Shine.
Enaan is eager to make a mark for himself in the upcoming series against Australia. He is confident in his abilities and is determined to contribute to the team's success.
