What is the Pitch Report for SA-WU19 vs IN-WU19, ICC Women’s Under-19 T20 World Cup 2025, Final?
It’s tricky to bat first and to post a match-winning score here at the Bayuemas Oval. The surface is on the slower side and requires some effort to post an excess of 150 given how it played in the semis.
Since it’s a final, will the teams take the risk to chase, we need to wait and watch.

Pre-Match Analysis:
After the agony in the last two Senior Women T20 World Cup finals, South Africa are seeking a major crown in the age group category as they face defending champions India in Sunday’s summit clash. Until the Semi-finals against Australia, the Junior Proteas Women didn’t play a single complete game as rain interrupted all of their league group matches. They had their moment when they brushed aside Australia Women in the 1st Semi-final by 5 wickets. Left-arm spinner, Ashleigh van Wyk, prevailed with the ball picking up 4 wickets to limit Australia to 105 for 8 in 20 overs. Despite a slight hiccup during the middle overs, they comfortably got home with 11 balls to spare. Jemma Botha (37), Kayla Reyneke (26), and Karabo Meso (19) played their roles to perfection.
History beckons as India Women will become the first nation to win back-to-back U-19 T20 World Cup titles if they beat South Africa in the finals. Nikki Prasad’s lead side thoroughly dominated the league and Super Six phase, while having to grind to overcome England in terms of overs though. In the end, they scripted a 9-wicket win with 30 balls to spare. Their top 3 bowlers Aayushi Sharma (2), Parunika Sisodia (3), and Vaishnavi Sharma (3) were in the news as they again delivered an impressive performance. In response, Kamalini (56*) and Trisha Gongadi (35) put on a show as India guaranteed their final qualification with ease.
