Gongadi Trisha, India's U19 Women's u19 World Cup star, created history with her all-round performance in the final of the tournament against South Africa on Sunday. The youngster guided India to a win with an unbeaten knock of 44 runs and picked up 3/15 with the ball.
Her performance ensured India won the tournament that they dominated throughout and cemented her status as one of the brightest talents in women’s cricket.
Trisha was nearly speechless while talking at the post-match presentation after being awarded both the Player of the Match and Player of the Tournament honours.
Even though she was overwhelmed by the moment, she dedicated her success to her father, a tribute to the support behind her journey. Her all-round brilliance had been the key to India’s unbeaten run in the tournament, and she once again delivered
"Means everything to me, right now not able to say anything. Thank everyone for supporting me. Plan was to always focus on my strengths, did the same thing today as well...Would like to dedicate this to my dad who is here. Always consider myself as an allrounder. Goal is to play for the country and win more matches," Trisha said.
Trisha rose to the occasion yet again in the final played in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Trisha wove a web around the already struggling South African batters with her spin, triggering a collapse that restricted them to jsut 82 runs. She was well-supported by her fellow spinners, as India’s slow bowlers accounted for nine of the ten wickets.
Chasing the low total, Trisha opened the batting with aggression, smashing three boundaries in the very first over. Her attacking stroke play kept India ahead in the chase as she partnered with Soumya Chalke to put the game beyond South Africa’s reach. India lost wicket-keeper Kamalini Reyneke to a sharp delivery, but Trisha and Chalke continued their charge.
Trisha was dropped on 38, but India needed just 15 runs to win by that time. Chalke eventually sealed the win with a stylish boundary in the 12th over.
Trisha finished the tournament as the top scorer with 309 runs, including the only century of the World Cup. With her composure under pressure and match-winning ability, the young all-rounder is would want to become a key figure in India’s cricketing future.
