England's young cricketers will donate about £1,000 as well as clothing to the Indian earthquake appeal before they leave the country on Friday.

The Under-19 side's tour itinerary was revised following the earthquake which is believed to have killed 50,000 people and left more than a million homeless.

England manager Tim Tremlett said: "The whole touring party were shocked by the disaster and found some of the images particularly distressing.

"The scale of the devastation is very difficult to comprehend but we felt that we wanted to make some sort of contribution to the aid effort."
