India’s Under-19 women’s cricket team has etched their name in history by clinching the ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup 2025 with a dominant nine-wicket victory over South Africa in the final at Bayuemas Oval.
The Indian bowling attack put up a stellar show, restricting South Africa to just 82 runs. Chasing the modest target, Gongadi Trisha led the charge with an unbeaten 44, supported by Sanika Chalke’s 26, sealing the win with more than eight overs to spare.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the young champions, praising their grit and teamwork. “Immensely proud of our Nari Shakti! This victory reflects their determination and will inspire future athletes. My best wishes to the team for their future endeavors,” he said.
This victory is a landmark moment in Indian women’s cricket, highlighting the extraordinary talent and promise of the next generation.
