U19 venues

Next year’s Under-19 Cricket World Cup will stretch from Whangarei to Queenstown among seven host venues. They join Tauranga’s Bay Oval and four Christchurch venues (Lincoln x 2, Hagley Oval, Rangiora) as hosts for the 48-match tournament from January 13-February 3. A notable omission is Napier’s McLean Park which has had drainage issues.
