In a video shared by the BCCI, Team India coach Rahul Dravid was heard saying, “Today was the landmark day for India under-19 Women’s cricket team and they had a fantastic day. I would like to pass it on winning Under-19 Boys captain to pass on a message to young girls.”

Prithvi Shaw, who led the India Under-19 team to lift the trophy in 2018 in New Zealand, said,” I think, it’s a great achievement. Everyone wants to congratulate the under-19 Women’s team. So Congratulations!” It was the fourth world title for India’s young guns.

Meanwhile, senior women’s team members can also be seen shouting and dancing after the under-19 team’s historic win. Led by a superb bowling performance and an impressive fielding display, India managed to restrict England to a below-par total of 68, India chased down the target with seven wickets and six overs to spare, sparking off huge celebrations in the camp.

It was another clinical display with the ball that held the key to India’s march to victory, with Titas Sadhu setting the pace, with the spinners delivering another telling performance when it mattered.
