[edit]

The inaugural Women's Under-19 World Cup was scheduled to take place in January 2021, but was postponed multiple times due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[4] The tournament was eventually scheduled to take place in 2023, in South Africa. UAE competed in the Asia Qualifier for the tournament in June 2022 in Malaysia. The side won all of their group matches, including a decisive six wicket victory over Thailand, to qualify for the tournament.[2]

UAE announced their squad for the tournament on 26 December 2022, with Najeeb Amar announced as Head Coach of the side.[5] The side reached the Super Six stage, in which they finished bottom of their group.[3]
