The 2010 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup was the eighth edition of the Under-19 Cricket World Cup and took place in New Zealand. Since 1998, the tournament has been held every 2 years. This edition had 16 teams competing in 44 matches between 15 and 30 January 2010. These included the 10 ICC Full Members and 6 Qualifiers.[1] The tournament was originally scheduled to take place in Kenya, but the International Cricket Council (ICC) moved it to New Zealand after an inspection in June 2009 found that it would be unrealistic to expect Kenya to complete preparations in time.[2]

Australia won the tournament, beating Pakistan in the final by 25 runs.[3] South African Dominic Hendricks scored the most runs in the tournament,[4] and Raymond Haoda of Papua New Guinea claimed the most wickets.[5]
