Fixtures announced for ICC U19 Men's Cricket World Cup 2024

The fixtures for the ICC U19 Men's Cricket World Cup 2024 have been revealed, with the tournament set to take place in Sri Lanka from 13 January to 4 February.

Sixteen teams will participate in the 15th edition of the competition, with some notable tweaks in the format.

It will be the third time Sri Lanka are hosting the tournament, and the first time since 2006. The hosts will open the tournament with a clash against Zimbabwe on 13 January. 

India, the reigning champions who won the 2022 edition in the West Indies, will begin their campaign against 2020 champions Bangladesh the next day.

The format for the upcoming edition has been tweaked from the previous edition. 

The teams will be divided into four groups, each consisting of four teams, but the top three teams from each group will now progress to the Super Six stage. Group stage matches will take place from 13 to 21 January.

Additionally, the fourth-placed teams in each group will compete in one more match against another fourth-placed team before concluding their tournament.
