History

Ireland won the 2009 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup Qualifier which was held in Canada. The team gained victories over the U-19 teams of Hong Kong, Canada, Uganda, Sierra Leone, Vanuatu, the Netherlands and Afghanistan.

The team lost only one match to the United States. Ireland's performance in this tournament gained them qualification for the 2010 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup.

Among other ICC full members, Ireland has beaten only Afghanistan (once) and Zimbabwe (twice) at the Under-19 World Cup. At the time of their victories over Zimbabwe, Ireland was an associate member.[1]

Ireland was added to the 2016 Under-19 Cricket World Cup on 6 January 2016, after Australian under-19s withdrew due to security concerns.[2] They announced their squad two days later.[3]

gollark: Would you like me to add an option to skynet to download the JSON library somewhere else?
gollark: Oh, and now it stack-overflow-errors...
gollark: It's still running. I think I broke it, since it seems to be processing the same stuff repeatedly.
gollark: Now to get an advanced monitor and put that in green text...
