The Indian team will face the English team in the final.
New Delhi. On January 28, India vs New Zealand played two matches against New Zealand. The first was played in the South Africa Under-19 Women’s T20 World Cup while the second was played in India. The women’s team defeated the Kiwis. But this time the Indian men were left behind. Indian women have defeated New Zealand in the semi-finals and cut the ticket for the final. All this happened due to the aggressive captain of the team, Shefali Verma.
Shefali not only performed well in the entire World Cup, but also handled the team brilliantly. However, a phase also came in the tournament where Team India lost sleep. During that time the Australian team had given a crushing defeat to India by 7 wickets. It was a Super-6 match. Due to which it was a matter of concern for India. But Shefali Verma’s team made a spectacular comeback in the semi-finals. The final is to be held on January 29 from England. But the captain’s birthday is also a day before that i.e. on Saturday. Shefali Verma needs a different gift on her birthday.
It was difficult to sleep after the match against Sri Lanka – Shefali Verma
Shefali Verma told in a conversation on ESPN Cricinfo, ‘It is a good feeling to reach the final. I want everyone to give their hundred percent. I had told that after Sri Lanka it was difficult to sleep a bit. England has good all-rounders. But we will do what we have been doing. We will not think of doing anything new. We will enjoy this match. The day I joined the Under-19, I told everyone that I only want a trophy as my birthday gift.
