“I’m really excited about the talented young players in Victoria’s player pathway system at the moment,” Cricket Victoria Talent Male Development Manager Tom Evans said.
“The coaches in these programs are looking forward to continuing to challenge and develop these players, alongside the important development that will take place within their Victorian Premier Cricket clubs.”
All-rounder Moyle and wicket-keeper batsman James have been part of the Pathways program since 2019 and have competed in Victorian Premier Cricket for Carlton and Melbourne, respectively.
Both players were also top-grade premiers for Echuca in the 2022-23 season, with Moyle earning another flag in Goulburn Murray Cricket’s women’s A-grade competition.
Meanwhile, James played a key role in Echuca’s second consecutive McMahon Shield premiership, smashing a pivotal century in the grand final against Nondies-Cohuna.
