ICC U19 EAP World Cup Qualifier 2023 is underway. Here are the squads and full team lists for the teams in the East Asia-Pacific Zone for the Under-19 World Cup 2024 Qualifier.

The East Asia-Pacific region Qualifier for the ICC Under-19 World Cup 2023 is already underway. Having opted out of the 2022 World Cup, New Zealand have to play the Qualifiers, and are hot favourites from the group.

New Zealand will compete with Fiji, Indonesia, Japan, Papua New Guinea, Samoa, and Vanuatu for one slot at the main event in Sri Lanka. The matches will take place between June 12 and 21, at the Marrara Oval in Darwin and the Cazalys Bay in Cairns.

Hosts Sri Lanka have already qualified for the 16-team event, as have Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, Ireland, Pakistan, South Africa, West Indies, and Zimbabwe based on their performance in the 2022 event.

The five remaining positions will be filled by the teams that top the five Qualifiers. Of them, Nepal have already made it from the Asia region, but Africa, America, EAP, and Europe still await the toppers.
