The ICC has released the full schedule for the Under-19 Men's ODI World Cup 2026. It will be staged from 15 January to 6 February 2026, across Zimbabwe and Namibia, with 16 teams taking part over 23 days, playing a total of 41 matches. India will play the USA on the first day of the tournament. Other matches on the first day will be between Zimbabwe and Scotland, Tanzania, and the West Indies. A relevant factor is that India and Pakistan have been kept in different groups, which means the two teams will not face off in the group stage. Tournament Format and Groups The 16 teams have been divided into four groups of four teams each. After the group stage, the top three teams from each group move into the Super Six stage that will be divided into two new groups of six. From there, the top two sides in each Super Six group make their way into the semifinals. All semifinals and the final have reserved days to avoid weather issues. The final will be played at the Harare Sports Club in Zimbabwe. Also Read | Will Shubman Gill play the second Test vs South Africa at Guwahati?
