2012 Under-19 Cricket World Cup

The 2012 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup was a one-day cricket competition for sixteen international U-19 cricketing teams which was held in August 2012. It was the ninth edition of the Under-19 Cricket World Cup. The tournament was held in Australia for the second time after previously hosting it in 1988 with the tournament being held across three cities (Brisbane, Sunshine Coast and Townsville).

Six teams qualified from the qualifying event as they joined the full members that automatically qualified through to the World Cup. The teams were separated into four groups of four with the top two teams qualifying through to the Super League while the bottom two will compete in the Plate Championship. After finishing second in their group, India beat Australia in the final by six wickets to win their third title after previously winning in 2000 and 2008.[1] India's Unmukt Chand scored 111 not out, facing 130 balls and was awarded Man of the Final.[2] Australian captain Will Bosisto was awarded Man of the Series. Canada was originally scheduled to be the host of the event, after being selected as hosts in 2007.[3]

16 teams participated in the competition. The 10 nations with ICC Full Membership automatically qualified for the tournament. Ten further teams competed in the qualifying event which was held in Ireland with only the top six teams qualifying through to the 2012 World Cup.
