The ICC U19 Men\u2019s Cricket World Cup 2026, which will be co-hosted by Namibia and Zimbabwe from 15 January to 6 February. A total of 16 teams will compete in 41 matches, with the tournament culminating in the final at Harare Sports Club on 6 February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the official welcome ceremony, Minister of Education, Innovation, Youth, Sports, Arts and Culture, Sanet L. Steenkamp, described the tournament as a defining moment that places Namibia firmly on the global sporting stage. She said hosting the event reflects the country\u2019s growing capacity to stage world-class competitions and its commitment to youth development through sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Steenkamp said the tournament goes beyond cricket results, highlighting its role in promoting unity, international cooperation and opportunities for young athletes. She welcomed participating nations Australia, Sri Lanka, Ireland, Afghanistan, the West Indies, Tanzania, South Africa and Japan, assuring teams of Namibia\u2019s hospitality and promising a memorable experience on and off the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She further added that under the leadership of President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, sport has been elevated to one of the country\u2019s top national priorities, recognising its importance in social cohesion, youth empowerment and economic growth. Investment in sports infrastructure, including the Namibia Cricket Ground, was cited as evidence of the country\u2019s readiness to host major international events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Namibia is not competing in the tournament, Steenkamp said hosting the World Cup sends a powerful message to young Namibians that global sporting stages are within reach. She added that the event is expected to boost tourism, create economic opportunities and strengthen Namibia\u2019s reputation as a reliable host nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The minister also linked the tournament to Namibia\u2019s broader sporting ambitions, including the country\u2019s upcoming role as a co-host of the ICC Men\u2019s Cricket World Cup alongside Zimbabwe and South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ICC Men\u2019s Under-19 Cricket World Cup will take place at the Namibia Cricket Ground in Cricket Street, Olympia, Windhoek, from 15 to 26 January 2026, with matches starting daily at 09:30.
