How Clinical And Meticulous Planning, Execution Got India Its Second U19 Women’s T20 WC Title
U19 T20 Challenger Trophy: People generally think that titles in today’s professional team sports are won through dedication and well-thought-out strategies. But retaining a championship, though, presents a significantly greater hurdle. If a team achieves this, it demonstrates the team and its think tank’s commitment to a robust plan and well-executed process.
India’s triumph at the 2025 U19 Women’s T20 World Cup in Malaysia serves as a compelling example of this. Thanks to nine months of meticulous planning and flawless execution by Bengaluru’s BCCI Centre of Excellence coaching and administrative staff, Niki Prasad’s team successfully defended their U19 World Cup title in Malaysia, a staggering development which augurs well for the future of women’s cricket in India.
The journey to winning the title on February 2 began in April 2024 with zonal camps run by the CoE (formerly the National Cricket Academy), and 100 girls participating in them. The camps provided specific training in all skillsets, following which the 100 girls participated in a zonal tournament in May.
