Austin Waugh comes from a family of serious cricketing pedigree.

He’s the son of Steve, arguably our greatest modern captain and the man who crushed the Poms for a generation.

His uncle is Mark, one of our stable of great commentators here at Triple M Cricket and a brilliant batsman in his own right.

Steve and Mark combined for over 18,000 Test runs, so it’s no surprise that Austin is a jet himself.

Playing for NSW in the final of the under 19 championship against the Cricket Australia XI, Austin pulled off a stunning piece of fielding to run out CAXI opening batsman Patrick Rowe.

Kyle Brazell pushed the ball to the off-side and set off, before Austin Waugh swooped in and threw the stumps down with just the one to aim at.

To add to that piece of brilliance, Waugh also did well with the ball, taking 2/37 from his seven overs.

NSW look certain to win the final, with CAXI 9/168 chasing their 6/296.
