A HUNT End student is set to represent his country on an international cricket tour this month.

Luke Sugg, 15, (right) from St Augustine's High School, is jetting off to Sri Lanka to represent the England Blind Cricket Team this Friday.

During the three-match series, the Year 11 pupil will play as opening wicket keeper batsman but will also have rest days where he will be able to tour some of the country.

Sue Adams, from the Stonepits Lane school, said he would also take a trip to the High Commission.
