The 2015 ICC Americas Under-19 Championship was an international cricket tournament held in Bermuda, from 5 to 11 July 2015. It was the eighth edition of the ICC Americas Under-19 Championship, and the first held in Bermuda since the inaugural tournament in 2001.
Canada won the title for a fifth time, finishing the tournament undefeated to qualify directly for the 2016 Under-19 World Cup. The United States were the runner-up, finishing ahead of Bermuda on net run rate to proceed to the 2015 World Cup Qualifier, where the winner will also qualify for the World Cup. The tournament was originally going to involve a fourth team, Suriname, which would have been making its maiden appearance. However, Suriname withdrew from the tournament after failing to secure transit visas for its players.[1]
