Watch: U-19 Women's T20 World Cup champions get victory lap during India vs New Zealand 3rd T20I

The India Women’s U19 cricket team scripted history by winning the inaugural ICC T20 World Cup on 29 January. For their feat, the squad was felicitated in a special ceremony ahead of the third T20I between India and New Zealand on Tuesday at the Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad. A number of big names from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) including President Roger Binny, Secretary Jay Shah, and Vice-President Rajiv Shukla were present at the glittery celebration where India’s great Sachin Tendulkar handed a Rs 5-crore cheque to the young brigade.

During the innings break, the Shafali Verma-led unit also took a victory lap around the full-house stadium and showed off their championship title. A clip of the same was shared by the BCCI Women on their official Twitter handle.
