U-19 Cricket refers to a format of the game specifically designed for players under the age of 19. It serves as a platform for young cricketers to showcase their talent and gain experience in competitive matches. Various international and domestic tournaments, such as the ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup, are held to promote youth cricket and identify future stars. The format typically follows the rules of standard One Day Internationals or Twenty20 cricket, allowing young players to develop their skills in a structured environment. Many professional cricketers, including Virat Kohli and Babar Azam, have emerged from U-19 cricket, highlighting its importance in the sport's ecosystem.
