Format of U19 World Cup 2024
The ICC Men's U19 World Cup 2024 consists of two main stages: the Group Stage and the Super Six. In this tournament, the 16 teams competing are divided into four groups. In the ICC Men's U19 World Cup 2024, teams that achieve the top three positions in their respective groups will move forward to the next stage – the Super Series. Teams from Groups A and D will form one cluster, while those from Groups B and C will form another. In this phase, each team will play two matches against teams from the parallel group based on their rankings in the initial stage. For example, the group leader from Group A (A1) will compete against the second and third-ranked teams from Group D (D2 and D3). The two most successful teams from each Super Series group will then proceed to the semi-finals.
