Team information
Founded	2003 (first match)

The Zambia national under-19 cricket team represents the Republic of Zambia in international under-19 cricket. The team's first recorded matches came at the 2003 Africa/EAP Under-19 Championship, a combined tournament for the under-19 teams of African and East Asia-Pacific (EAP) associate members. Zambia has participated in every edition of the ICC Africa Under-19 Championships since 2007, and played in four consecutive Division One tournaments from 2007 to 2013. Zambia placed fourth at both the 2009 and 2010 tournaments (and also hosted the former), but was relegated to Division Two in 2014 after placing sixth at the 2013 Division One tournament.

History

Organised under-19 international cricket dates only from the 1970s – the first under-19 Test and One Day International (ODI) were played in 1974 and 1976, respectively,[1][2] while the first Under-19 World Cup was held in 1988.[3] The Zambian under-19 side's first recorded matches came at the 2003 Africa/EAP Under-19 Championship.[4] The Zambia Cricket Union had only gained associate membership of the ICC earlier in 2003, having previously formed part of the East and Central Africa Cricket Conference, along with Malawi and Tanzania (Kenya and Uganda left the association in 1981 and 1998, respectively). Zambian players had competed for an East and Central Africa side at the 2001 Africa Under-19 Championship, which placed second behind Namibia.[5]
