Indian U-19s begin their preparations for the inaugural U-19 women's T20 World Cup in South Africa with a five-match series against the hosts.
Giving their push to claim the maiden women’s U-19 T20 World Cup real strength, the Indian U-19 side get on with their preparations via a full-fledged T20 series against hosts South Africa.
The Indian women’s U-19 team will be facing up against the Proteas U-19s in a five-match T20 series, which would fine-tune their build-up to the inaugural ICC U-19 T20 World Cup in the rainbow nation.
The T20 series is expected to hold both the teams in good stead, especially the Indian side not used to the conditions in South Africa. Why, they have experienced international Shafali Verma at the helm of affairs, whose return to the U-19s raised a few eye-balls recently.
Leading the South African women’s U-19 team is Oluhle Siyo, who would be hoping to lead her side to victory over India in home conditions and enter the junior World Cup feeling confident.
