At Bay Oval in Tauranga the West Indies will play the inaugural Group A day-night fixture which also features 16 teams across seven venues in four cities - Christchurch, Queenstown, Tauranga and Whangarei.
ICC Head of Events Chris Tetley, "The ICC U19 World Cup plays an important role in the progression of young talent onto the global stage. The list of past and current players who had their first taste of a major event at this tournament is a long one and I have no doubt we'll be witnessing some of tomorrow's stars in New Zealand next year."
