Commentary

That brings us to the end of our coverage for this encounter. Till the next time, this is Arya Sekhar Chakraborty signing off on behalf of my close friend and co-commentator Pradeep. Keep following Sportskeeda.

Shafali Verma (India captain): It was really a very flat wicket, they hit very well, and credit to them. I was forced to change the field, I was under pressure as a captain a little bit. I was pegging my bowlers and asking them to be confident. It's a really good experience playing here. I am very confident to bowl and I am enjoying bowling.

Oluhle Siyo (South Africa captain): I think the girls did well with the bat. Well played India, really well batted by them. We hope we win the next game. A lot of hard work, lot of learning took place. Lot of refocusing, especially us batters and it paid of today for most of the us. It's good to see the plans coming off. Simone Laurens led from the front, she was fantastic. The bowlers should have been a little more disciplined, hopefully we come out stronger in the next game. Great support and we loved every bit of it.

Shweta Sehrawat has been adjudged the Player of the Match for her blistering knock of 92 off just 57 deliveries! Here's what she has to say: The talk we had in the dressing room was to accelerate in the beginning, didn't work all that well for me for Shafali got us off to a good start but then covered it up later. Yes, this is my best T20 innings so far. I try to score quickly at the start but the plan with Shafali is to bat longer, ensure we take the game deep and stay as long as possible in the middle

India Women U 19 win by 7 wickets (with 21 deliveries to spare)

South Africa W U19 166/5 in 20 overs
Simone Laurens 61(45) | Shafali Verma 2/31

India W U19 170/3 in 16.3 overs
Shweta Sehrawat 92*(57) | Shafali Verma 45(16) | Miane Smith 1/15

At the halfway stage, South Africa would have been confident of defending the score of 166 but with the likes of Shafali Verma in the opposition rank, it was always going to be a tall ask and it turned out in a similar fashion. Riding on the back of a splendid 16 ball 45 by Shafali Verma and a brilliant half-century by Shweta Sehrawat, India have managed to coast to the victory target with 7 wickets in hand and 21 balls remaining.

India started off in a blazing fashion courtesy of their skipper Shafali Verma. She was partnered well by Sehrawat as both found the boundaries on a consistent basis. The final over of the powerplay proved to be a game-changer for India as Shafali smashed Nthabiseng Nini for 26 runs, including 5 fours and a six.

At 70/0, India was well in the driver’s seat but South Africa knew they could break open the game if they got the wicket of Shafali. Maine Smith bagged the prized wicket to pull things back for South Africa but Sehrawat and Gongadi Trishan, the next batter coming in had other ideas. They didn’t allow the required rate to creep up and continued the onslaught.

Sehrawat went onto reach a well-deserved half-century and kept finding the boundaries on a consistent basis. Trisha was dismissed after scoring 15 off 11 deliveries but there was no stopping Sehrawat. She kept playing with the field and didn’t allow any bowler to settle in. She eventually remained unbeaten on 92 off just 57 deliveries, which was studded with 20 fours.

Earlier in the day, it was South Africa who won the toss and opted to bat. They put up a challenging score of 166 on the back of a special knock from Simone Laurens. She started off in a rollicking fashion, smashing boundaries for fun. Elandri Rensburg also got off to a flyer as South Africa raced off to 56 in the first 4 overs.

The Indian spinners bowled well in the middle overs. Shafali Verma took the onus on herself to take the wickets and she bagged two to squeeze South Africa. Laurens was eventually dismissed on 61 off 44 deliveries while the lower order also struck some crucial boundaries to get their side to a competitive score. It proved way too less in the end as India chased it down quite comfortably.

16.3 Madison Landsman to Shweta Sehrawat, FOUR! INDIA WIN THE TOURNAMENT OPENER! Fittingly Sehrawat hits the winning runs as India thrash South Africa here. Short on the fourth stump, rocks back and thumped it just past the diving extra-cover fielder, races to the fence for a boundary.

16.2 Madison Landsman to Sonia Mendhiya, drops it short, angling it across right-hander as Mendhiya slaps it down to long-off, misfield by the short cover fielder, they take the single and the scores are level now!

Soniya Mendhiya, RHB comes out to the crease.

16.1 Madison Landsman to Soumya Tiwari, OUT! HOLES OUT AT LONG-ON AND GONE! Tiwari goes for the glory shot and perishes. Loopy full delivery on the stumps, Tiwari launches it straight down the throat of long-on who takes a dolly.

16.1 Madison Landsman to Soumya Tiwari, WIDE! Starts around the wicket, drifts this one down the leg-side, Tiwari was down the track but she gets back in time and it's called a wide.

India just one strike away from victory, this has been an incredible knock from Sehrawat, a boundary to end the over. She has raced to 88 in just 56 deliveries. Reyneke found it difficult to grip the ball and went for a couple of boundaries.

15.6 Kayla Reyneke to Shweta Sehrawat, FOUR! Unbelievable shot that from Sehrawat. Fires a full toss into Sehrawat, she gets inside the line and ramps it down to fine-leg, goes one bounce into the fence for a boundary. India one hit away to notch up a win here!

15.5 Kayla Reyneke to Shweta Sehrawat, loopy short delivery on the fourth stump, Sehrawat rocks back and slaps it but finds the cover fielder.

15.4 Kayla Reyneke to Shweta Sehrawat, FOUR! SHOT! Length delivery on the off-stump, Sehrawat picks her spot as she walks across off-stump, down on one knee and swept it hard over square-leg, runs away and finds the ropes.

15.3 Kayla Reyneke to Shweta Sehrawat, OH! Length delivery on the middle and leg, Sehrawat down on one knee and flicks it right in between short fine-leg and backward square-leg to pick up a couple.

15.2 Kayla Reyneke to Soumya Tiwari, goes full on the off-stump, Tiwari strides out and drives down to long-on for a single.

15.1 Kayla Reyneke to Soumya Tiwari, loopy full delivery on the off-stump, Tiwari gets forward and drilled it straight to short mid-wicket fielder.

Kayla Reyneke [3-0-29-0] comes back into the attack.

India well on track, just 14 more required off the last 5 overs. Shweta Sehrawat is playing a blinder here, again a couple of boundaries coming in that over as India inch closer to the victory target.
