NEW DELHI: The United States qualified for the ICC Under-19 ODI World Cup after a strong performance in the Americas qualifiers, joining the 15 other countries already qualified for the championship in Sri Lanka next year.
They won five of six matches to finish first in the four-team qualifiers with 10 points, the same as Canada, but with a higher net run-rate (4.84).
They beat Bermuda to start their qualification campaign, but a loss to Canada provided some interest.
However, the United States responded with another victory over Bermuda before going on to defeat Argentina twice, including a score of 515 in one game.

Rain forced a 22-over-a-side game in the critical final match against Canada. Before sealing the chase to make the cut, the USA held their opponents to 92/9.
Afghanistan, Australia, Bangladesh, England, India, Ireland, Pakistan, South Africa, Sri Lanka, West Indies, and Zimbabwe have automatically qualified for the 2022 tournament as the best-placed Full Member States.
