After being selected as captain of the Auckland Under-19 team for this season's National U19 Tournament, Marc Ellison has been chosen to captain the New Zealand team at the 2006 U19 World Cup.
Ellison made significant and consistent performances with the bat that
helped Auckland to win the national U19 tournament. In seven matches, he
scored four half-centuries and one century to guarantee his place in the New
Zealand squad and impressed significantly enough as captain to be chosen as
the player to lead New Zealand into a major tournament where in the past
three campaigns their performances have been disappointing. They will be
looking to Ellison to ensure a stronger performance in this year's
tournament.
