India vs South Africa Highlights U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: IND seal World Cup triumph with dominant win vs SA

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Just thorough, utter dominance by India's bowling. Sisodia picks up her second with the last ball of the innings, and the Proteas never quite recovered from a poor start in the powerplay.

83 needed for India, their match to lose with the batting form they are in. But stranger things have happened.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Fay Cowling, SA's last recognised batter, with the first six of the innings over long-on. But the fun doesn't last long as two balls late, she is knocked over in slightly unfortunate fashion for Vaishnavi's first wicket.

She has another two balls later as Negodi swipes at one and completely misses.

80/9 now, India just not giving anything away to their opponents.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: And another! New batter Naidu tries a paddle first ball, but only has the leg stump knocked back.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Van Voorst scoops Trisha for four, all three of her boundaries coming behind square on the leg side. Niki Prasad brings up mid-on to take away that square option, and van Voorst falls for the trap.

She looks to step out and loft, but misses altogether. Kamalini finishes the business behind the stumps, South Africa 74/6, but good innings from van Voorst.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Another sweep, another 4 for van Voorst, but with three overs left, plenty more big hits needed. 67/5 after 17, SA not showing the power to find the boundary down the ground which is essential on this pitch.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: A boundary that was needed desperately as van Voorst sweeps one to the fence, their first boundary since the powerplay. More of the same needed.

15 overs through, 54/5.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Can't go across the line with how dead-eyed accurate India's spinners are! Simple you-miss-I-hit stuff as Meso goes for a slog sweep in the search for a boundary to ease the pressure, her stumps knocked over behind her.

India showing why they were the favourites, 44/5 after 12.4.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Something had to give after how tight India have kept it, and Reyneke looks to clear long-off. Almost gets enough, but never quite enough. Trisha was the bowler to try and attack, but she gets a wicket instead.

South Africa now 40/4.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Just no breathing room for the Proteas as India's spinners just don't let any runs leak. Trisha introduced for one over, and keeps it just as tight.

Just 4 runs off the last 4 overs. Something needs to change for South Africa in this drinks break.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Runs are so tough to come by for Reyneke and Meso. A maiden by Aayushi followed up by just 1 run from Parunika's over.

30/3 after 8, and only now is leading wicket-taker Vaishnavi introduced. Trouble for the South African team if they keep letting pressure build, but it's difficult against India's spinners.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: If you take 3 wickets in the powerplay, you usually win games is the thinking in T20 cricket. India off to a fantastic start from that perspective.

Skipper Reyneke now needed to rebuild alongside wicketkeeper Meso, as the second phase of the innings begins.

Maiden for Aayushi Shukla in the seventh over, a tough stumping chance missed by Kamalini.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: India in the driver's seat now! Aayushi Shukla, the second of the spin trio, on to bowl, and takes only one delivery to strike. Ramlakan plays for the spin but is beaten on her inside edge, the ball knocking over her stumps.

20/3 now, and two new batters at the crease. India taking charge early.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Shabnam brings pace on from the other end as well, potentially to tempt Botha into a mistake, and it is a plan that works beautifully!

Botha only faces the first and last ball of the over, but a big swing in search of a boundary only finds her outside edge. It's a smart, sharp catch flying to her right by keeper Kamalini. Botha, South Africa's best batter, gone for 16(14).

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Botha playing the way she knows, taking the attack with another excellent stroke clearing the mid-off fielder. Three boundaries for her already.

Ramlakan, brought in for this match to bolster the batting, in at three. Nearly chops on, but survives.

18/1 after 3.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Great decision to bring spin on early against batters who like pace on the ball! Parunika Sisodia first builds pressure against Botha, but it's Lourens who pays the price. One ball skids through, off the thigh pad, and onto her stumps.

Excellent over, South Africa 11/1 at the end of 2.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Just the start Botha wanted, a boundary straight back over the bowler's head followed by a piercing shot through the leg-side.

10 off the first over for the Proteas.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Plenty of pride on show in the anthems, with so many fans from both countries joining in for the anthems as the young stars prepare to battle.

Wicketkeeper G Kamalini sprints out, leading the rest of her team into a huddle, and all the nerves are being translated into energy by the Indian team.

Joshitha to start proceedings with ball, Jemma Botha facing up, Simone Lourens her partner.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Just under 10 minutes until action gets underway, and the crowd has filled up nicely with fans ready to watch the game's rising stars battle it out for the trophy in Kuala Lumpur. First

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: South Africa know that India are a great chasing team, but the choice to bat first is a clear indication that they will want to rattle India by having their openers, in particular Jemma Botha, go hard at India's bowling.

Neither team has had to score too many runs so far this tournament, but both are capable of it. Can South Africa's batters put India under the cosh?

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: A warm day being reported from Malaysia, but no expectation of rain on a hot day. The same kind of turf being used as in the India vs England semifinal, which will give India confidence having bowled first and chased confidently.

Runs on the board the order of the day, with India more familiar with this pitch compared to the Proteas.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Kayla Reynecke wins the toss for South Africa and opts to bat at the Bayuemas Oval. The stage is set!

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: Even more significant than the batting, potentially, has been a bowling attack that no team has had an answer to. In a modern throwback to the spin quartet of old, the Indian team has used three left-arm orthodox spinners to bowl rings around the opposition throughout the tournament.

Vaishnavi Sharma with 15 wickets and Aayushi Shukla with 12 lead the entire tournament in wickets taken.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: One of South Africa's concerns will be how untested their batting has largely been until the semifinals, especially due to games curtailed by rain. However, Jemma Botha came good vs Australia with 37(24) to set up the chase, with captain Reynecke anchoring the innings from number three.

South Africa will need to be firing on all cylinders, especially against a tricky Indian bowling group.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: India's pair of remarkable openers in G Trisha and G Kamalini has been their greatest strength on the batting front throughout the tournament, racking up runs at a quick rate and ensuring that they take the responsibility of run-scoring for the team.

Trisha leads the tournament run-scoring with 265 runs at nearly 150 SR, heads and shoulders ahead of anyone else. Dislodging her from the crease early will be the key component of South Africa's gameplan.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: South Africa are also unbeaten in their campaign so far, and have shown plenty of dominance just as India did.

Their group began with a 22-run victory over New Zealand in a rain-affected match, before taking only 10 deliveries to reach their target after blowing through Samoa's batting. It was more of the same in the final match against Nigeria, winning by 41 runs by DLS method.

Largely riding on an excellent pace-bowling attack, another rain-affected match saw South Africa bowl Ireland out for 35 in the Super Six, chasing it down comfortably. Their second match vs USA was abandoned.

In the semifinals, with a tough task against Australia, it was the batting's turn to pull through, led by opener Jemma Botha and captain Kayla Reynecke.

These two teams have certainly been the best teams in the tournament, but India start off as favourites.

India vs South Africa Live Score U19 Women's T20 World Cup Final: India have dominated their opposition throughout the tournament on their way to the title clash. They have looked by far to be the most dangerous team thanks to the bowling and top-order bowling.

India started by chasing down 45 against West Indies in just 4.2 overs, setting the tone. Next in the group, they beat hosts Malaysia by chasing down just 32 in 2.5 overs. In their final group game, they bowled out Sri Lanka for just 58 to win by 60 runs.

In the Super Six stage, India chased 65 vs Bangladesh in 7.1 overs. Following this, India scored a massive 208 vs Scotland thanks to G Trisha's century, winning by 150 runs to reach the semifinals.

Against England in the semis, it was another comfortable victory as India only took 15 overs to chase 114 after another excellent bowling performance.
