The tournament, co-hosted by Zimbabwe and Namibia, will run from January 15 to February 6.
India's U-19 cricket team will open their 2026 World Cup campaign against the USA on January 15 in Bulawayo. The tournament, co-hosted by Zimbabwe and Namibia, features 16 teams across four groups.
India are placed in Group A alongside USA, Bangladesh and New Zealand. Zimbabwe, Pakistan, England and Scotland are part of Group B. Group C incudes defending champions Australia, Ireland, Japan and Sri Lanka. Group D consists of Tanzania, the West Indies, Afghanistan and South Africa.
While India and Pakistan haven’t been slotted in the same group, both teams may face each other in the knockout stage of the competition, culminating with the final on February 6.
The ICC unveiled the fixtures on Wednesday (November 19). India will face USA on January 15, Bangladesh on January 17 and New Zealand on January 24. All three games will take place at Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo.
The top three teams from each group will progress to the Super Six stage, forming two groups of six.
“The knockout stage will follow, comprising two semi-finals and a final. Reserve days are available for these three games,” the ICC said.
Matches will be played at Harare Sports Club and Takashinga Sports Club in Harare, Queens Sports Club in Bulawayo, and at Namibia Cricket Ground and HP Oval in Windhoek.
