India Batter Trisha Gongadi Scripts Women's U19 WC History, Achieves Never-Done-Before Feat

India opening batter Trisha Gongadi on Tuesday scripted history in the ICC U19 Women's T20 World Cup as she became the first player to smash a century in the tournament. The 19-year-old swashbuckling batter reached the milestone as India thrashed Scotland by 150 runs in the Super Six match of the ICC U19 Women's T20 World Cup at the Bayuemas Oval on Tuesday.. The right-handed opener touched the three-figure mark off 53 balls. He remained unbeaten on 110 off 59 balls including 13 fours and four sixes at a strike rate of 186.44. Trisha was involved in a 147-run opening wicket partnership with G Kamalini, who departed after scoring 51 off 42 balls. The opener again built an unbeaten 61-run stand with Sanika Chalka (29 not out) to guide India to 208/1 in 20 overs.
