2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup

The 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup is an international limited-overs cricket tournament that is scheduled to be held in the West Indies in January and February 2022 with sixteen teams taking part.[1] It will be the fourteenth edition of the Under-19 Cricket World Cup, and the first to be held in the West Indies.[1] In March 2021, Cricket West Indies confirmed that the format would be the same as previous editions, with teams competing to progress to the Plate and Super League phases of the tournament.[2] In November 2021, the International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed the full schedule for the tournament, with matches to be played in Antigua, Guyana, Saint Kitts, and Trinidad; the final will be played at Sir Vivian Richards Stadium in Antigua.[3][4] New Zealand decided to withdraw from the tournament due to the extensive mandatory quarantine restrictions for minors on their return home,[5] with Scotland named as their replacement.[6] Bangladesh are the defending champions.[7]

Qualification
Main article: 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup qualification

The top eleven teams from the previous tournament qualified automatically.[1] They were joined by the five winners of regional qualification tournaments.[8] In August 2021, the International Cricket Council (ICC) announced that the Americas, Asia, and EAP regional qualifiers had all been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[9] As a result, Canada, the United Arab Emirates and Papua New Guinea all qualified directly to the 2022 Under-19 Cricket World Cup based on their past performances in the last five regional qualifiers.[10] In the African group, Uganda won the Division 1 tournament to become the final team to qualify.[11] In the European group, Ireland beat Scotland in the regional final to qualify.[12] However, in November 2021, the ICC confirmed that Scotland had replaced New Zealand in the tournament, after New Zealand were forced to withdraw due to the extensive mandatory quarantine restrictions placed on the return of minors due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[13]
