U19 Cricket World Cup: Opening batter Tom Jones will captain New Zealand's 15-strong squad, which includes five domestic stars, for 2026 ICC Men’s Under-19 Cricket World Cup, hosted by Zimbabwe and Namibia, scheduled to take place across Zimbabwe and Namibia from 15 January to 6 February.

The squad will depart on January 2 and will have a training camp in Bulawayo before the tournament’s warm-up period begins on January 9.

Jones, who will be attending his second U19 Cricket World Cup, scored an impressive 119 on First Class debut for Otago last month.
