23 year old Pomersbach writes his own hype and having an international cap to his name, the selectors are believing it.

The 19 year old Philip Hughes has excellent composure and was the youngest Australian domestic débutante since Clarke, in fact facing the Sri Lankans in a tour match before playing for NSW.
The rotund 'little Boof' Mark Cosgrove remains prominent although his averages are slightly adrift in a Redbacks team that has gravely lost its way. At 23, he's still well above average, though.
The Vics have their own 23 year old in Aiden Blizzard, an opener noted for his incredible strike power. In the T20 final, he cleared a pull shot not only out of the ground, but into the nearby practice nets, about 150 metres from the middle.
Tasmanian keeper/opening batsman Tim Paine has slipped down the pecking order a lot since scoring 215 against WA. The concept of opening and keeping is an unlikely one and his struggling form has perhaps caused him to side with the gloves more than if he had showed prolonged batting form. With DiVenuto intending to retire from Tasmania, the decision may be made for him as they seek to fill the gap.
Not everyone has an interesting 23 year old and Queensland's best young batsman is probably still Shane Watson, only 26 although it seems like he has spent a decade in rehab. It's been a very lean season for all the Bulls, injury garotting the squad and Watson's own top order aspirations probably didn't help as he strung ducks up like a Chinese chef. Nevertheless he finally found a saving grace, knocking Tasmania out of the T20s in the penultimate game with a flurry of sixes to contribute an unbeaten 69.
Around the globe, I have to agree that I'm expecting to see Manoj Tiwary sooner rather than later, but it's utterly imperative that the West Indies get both Adrian Barath and Kieron Pollard into their international squad sooner than soon. I think New Zealand could have a hidden talent in Greg Hay and in England, although Luke Wright is a popular hard-hitter, I have to say I like the sound of James Hildreth decidedly more.
