Bio:

The former Australian under-19 captain made his senior Victorian debut last season, playing three matches for the Bushrangers in the Ford Ranger Cup. Hill is a powerful left-handed batsman who has come through the Pathway system, captaining Victoria to the under-19 national title in 2007-08 and being named Player of the Championships. The Bushrangers' hierarchy see him as a player of the future.

Hill has had a further taste of the Ford Ranger Cup this season, making a couple of tidy contributions. He has also been 12^th man in the Weet-Bix Sheffield Shield and will be desperate to make the most of further opportunities.
