The East Asia Pacific qualifier was held in Sano, Japan between 2–8 June 2019.[10] Papua New Guinea and Japan were undefeated going into the final game against each other, but the match was scratched and Japan qualified for its first ever Under-19 World Cup after Cricket PNG suspended ten members of the Papua New Guinea squad due to breaching the team's code of conduct, leaving Papua New Guinea unable to field a team for the match.[11][12][13]
