Team India has cliched yet another milestone in International cricket. The India Women's team won the World Cup in the Under 19 category. Notably, this is the first ever U19 Women's World Cup tournament in ICC history. The Shafali Verma-led Indian team is now the first World Champions in Women's U19 cricket.
