THREE ICC Men’s Under-19 Cricket World Cup 2026 matches are scheduled to take place in Zimbabwe and Namibia today.
At Takashinga Cricket Club, Zimbabwe will take on England.
The Young Chevrons will be hoping for a change of fortunes after their tournament opener against Scotland was abandoned without a ball being bowled at the same venue on Thursday.
A win is crucial as they look to keep their hopes of progressing to the Super Six stage alive.
England, meanwhile, got their campaign off to a winning start with a 37-run victory over Pakistan on Friday at the same venue.
At Queens Sports Club, the United States of America (USA) will be looking to bounce back from an opening-day defeat to India when they face New Zealand. This will be New Zealand’s first match of the tournament.
In Windhoek, Namibia, Afghanistan are set to face the West Indies. Both sides won their opening matches, against South Africa and Tanzania respectively.
The youth global showpiece, which got under way last Thursday, will run until February 6.
All matches are free of charge.
