While the senior team is still looking for its first ICC title, the U19 team faces no such challenge, as after securing the crown of the inaugural ICC Women’s U19 T20 World Cup in 2023, the women in blue are all set to defend their title in the 2025 ICC U19 Women’s T20 World Cup in Malaysia, starting Saturday, January 18. In 2023, India won the trophy after defeating England by seven wickets under the leadership of Shafali Verma. However, the task of defending the title now falls on Niki Prasad, who led her team to the ACC U19 Women’s Asia Cup Trophy podium last month. With momentum and form on their side, India will aim to retain the trophy until 2027, beginning their title defence in Malaysia against West Indies on Sunday, January 19.
