Hampshire Hawks continue with their youth policy in the National League, selecting 13 for the clash with Middlesex Crusaders at Southgate on Sunday.

From the side that played out the rain-affected draw on the same ground today (Saturday), Jason Laney, Zac Morris, James Hamblin and Irfan Shah are all drafted in, with Alex Morris and Adrian Aymes sitting out.

The younger Morris, who retired hurt during the recent successful 2nd XI Championship game with Kent after being hit in the face whilst batting has recovered sufficiently to take his place.

Off-spinner Irfan Shah is included for the first time, with Director of Cricket explaining, "We will leave the decision on whether to play two spinners until the morning, depending on how dry the pitch at Southgate is."

Squad: NC Johnson, +DA Kenway, *RA Smith, WS Kendall, JS Laney, GW White, LR Prittipaul, AD Mascarenhas, SD Udal, ZC Morris, JRC Hamblin, CT Tremlett, IH Shah.
