History

Since 2000, English Under-19 cricket teams have been formed to play matches against other national age-group and development teams. These matches carried no formal ICC designation.{{cite web|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Teams/8/8241/Womens_Miscellaneous_Matches.html |title=Women's Miscellaneous Matches Played by England Under-19s Women |publisher=CricketArchive |access-date=2 January 2023}}

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.{{cite web|url=https://www.womenscriczone.com/icc-postpones-2021-womens-world-cup-qualifier-due-to-covid-19 |title=ICC postpones 2021 Women’s World Cup Qualifier due to COVID-19 |work=Women's CricZone |date=12 May 2020 |access-date=19 October 2022}} The tournament was eventually scheduled to take place in 2023, in South Africa. As a Full Member of the ICC, England qualified automatically for the tournament.{{cite web|url=https://www.icc-cricket.com/media-releases/2637447 |title=Excitement builds ahead of inaugural ICC U19 Women's T20 World Cup as Qualifier begins |work=International Cricket Council |date=31 May 2022 |access-date=19 October 2022}}
