The 10th edition of the ICC Under-19 World Cup took place at the United Arab Emirates. The 16-nation tournament saw South Africa emerging as the undisputed champion: their second major ICC achievement in the history of cricket. The first being the inaugural Champions Trophy triumph in 1998 by the senior side.

South Africa U19s dominated the tournament in every department of the game. Clyde Fortuin, the wicket-keeper, made 20 dismissals with the gloves: an absolute impossible figure to match for his counterparts in this edition. On the other hand, pacer Kagiso Rabada’s 6-wicket haul vs. Australia in the semis brought up tournament’s best bowling figure in an innings. He remained the second highest wicket-taker this year, whilst captain Aiden Markram was adjudged as the player of the tournament.
