Zimbabwe has made the second round of the Under-19 World Cup on three occasions – in
South Africa 1998 ,
Bangladesh 2004 and
Sri Lanka 2006 . In the last of those, Zimbabwe emerged from the first round undefeated, but lost easily to
Pakistan in the quarter-finals.
Mluleki Nkala (1998) and
Waddington Mwayenga (2002) were the equal leading wicket-takers in their respective tournaments.
Zimbabwe's worst result came at the
2012 World Cup in Australia , where the team suffered defeats to
Scotland and
Papua New Guinea before regaining some credibility by defeating
Namibia in the play-off for 15th place.
