Australia to Host England and Sri Lanka in U19 Women’s Tri-Series 2026

Australia is set to welcome England and Sri Lanka for an exciting nine-match U19 Women’s Tri-Series in Brisbane and the Gold Coast from April 6-18. This series will feature both 50-over and T20 games, showcasing Australia’s dedication to nurturing the next wave of talented women cricketers. 

Leading the charge for Australia U19 Women’s will be Tegan Williamson from Western Australia, with Emily Powell (NSW) and Ayaka Stafford (QLD) also stepping into leadership roles. Both of these players were part of Australia’s recent U19 tour to Sri Lanka. 

Tegan Williamson has already made her mark by representing Australia at the last ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup. This series will also be a significant milestone for Meg Lanning, who is embarking on her first tour as Development Coach. She’ll be mentoring the team while collaborating with Head Coach Kristen Beams, who oversees the national pathways program.
