IND vs SA U19 Women's T20 WC Final Highlights: India beat South Africa to lift World Cup for second time

What a dominant performance this from the Indian team!!! They have shown yet again there is a huge gulf between India and other countries at the junior level. India Women's future is BRIGHT!! 

A spare of thought for South Africa though!! Their dream to win the ICC trophy after 11 years has shattered. But the players led by Reyneke should be proud of themselves for the way they played throughout. They lost to  much superior Indian team and there is no shame in accepting that.

INDIA ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF U19 WOMEN!! An excellent effort from the girls in blue as they beat South Africa by nine wickets chasing down 83 runs in less than 12 overs.

Easy going continues for India and they are very close to creating history

India are only 18 runs away from a famous World Cup win here!! They are 65/1 after 9 overs.

50 runs are up for India in the 8th over!! They are racing towards victory here!! South Africa seem to have given up as well. Trisha is batting so well!!

Kamalini is OUT!! South African skipper has struck in the 5th over. India are 36/1 after 4.3 overs. Can South Africa pick more wickets?

Trisha Gongadi is leading the way in the chase for India! She has got the team off to a brilliant start here!! India are 18/0 after two overs. Who will pick up a wicket for South Africa?

Here we go! The chase begins for India. How many overs will they take to chase down this paltry score?

A fantastic bowling effort yet again from India. Their spinners, on expected lines, shined as South Africa have been skittled for just 82 runs in their 20 overs. Over to the batters now as they will look to finish this off quickly. Can South Africa put India under pressure with quick wickets?

OUT!! Vaishnavi Sharma gets another one and South Africa are 80/9. Can she finish off with another wicket with one ball left in her spell?

Finally, Vaishnavi Sharma strikes in her last over after conceding a six. Cowling goes after looking so good for her 15. South Africa are 80/8.

Trisha strikes again to finish with figures of 3/15 in her four overs. Wow!! South Africa never looked comfortable against spin today and they are unravelling pretty quickly. They are 74/7 after 18 overs.

Trisha Gongadi strikes to dismiss the dangerous Van Voorst who was really threatening to take the score closer to 100. South Africa are 74/6 in the 18th over

South Africa are 67/6 after 17 overs. This is a good partnership between Van Voorsyt and Cowling. Can they reach closer to 100 somehow to put some pressure on India in the chase? Looks tough for now though. 

50 is up for South Africa in 15th over. How many more can they add?

Aayushi Shukla strikes now and India all over South Africa. 44/5 they are after opting to bat and the spinners have taken over completely as expected.

The superstar Trisha Gongadi strikes!! She dismisses South Africa skipper Rayneke!! South Africa are in trouble at 40/4 in 12th over

It has been all India so far in the first half of South Africa's innings. After opting to bat, South Africa are 33/3 after 10 overs. They will have to up the ante quickly as the spinners are spinning a web around the batters. India are dominating at the moment.

Another one bites the dust!! Aayushi Shukla strikes now and India are all over South Africa. After winning the toss, the Proteas colts are 20/3 in the fifth over. Diara Ramlakan is gone for 3.

Botha is gone now and Shakil has struck. A huge wicket in the context of the game as she was looking good. A brilliant catch by the wicketkeeper Kamalini. South Africa 20/2

Parunika Sisodia strikes!!! She has got Simone Lourens for a duck in the second over. South Africa are 11/1. Excellent thinking after Shakil went for 10 runs in the opening over. Can South Africa respond now?

VJ Joshitha to take new ball for India!! Can she strike early? or Will South Africa get off to a good start?
