SARAWAK. – South Africa u19 Women continued their impressive run in the ICC u19 Women\u2019s T20 World Cup 2025, securing a seven-wicket victory against Ireland in their first Super Six fixture.<\/p>\n

Inclement weather delayed the start of play, and the match was reduced to 10 overs per side, with SA sent in to bowl first.<\/p>\n

A superb bowling performance laid the foundation for the victory as Monalisa Legodi delivered a remarkable spell of 4\/4 in two overs.<\/p>\n

Captain, Kayla Reyneke, was equally impactful, returning figures of 3\/2 in just under two overs. Their combined efforts saw Ireland bowled out for 35 runs.<\/p>\n

Reyneke also led with the bat, scoring an unbeaten 16 off 17 balls, supported by Simon\u00e9 Lourens, who contributed 14 runs. South Africa comfortably chased down the target, losing only three wickets.<\/p>\n

Reflecting on her standout performance, Legodi said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoyed my spell today. The ball was coming out well, and I focused on hitting my areas and executing my plans. I was in a good rhythm and backed myself to deliver for the team. It helps when the team around you is buzzing with energy and keeping the atmosphere positive.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to keep building on this momentum. It\u2019s all about staying consistent, working on my strengths, and contributing in every game. The key is to keep things simple and enjoy the process.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a great team environment where everyone supports each other. Whether it\u2019s celebrating wickets, backing our teammates, or keeping the energy high in the field, that positive vibe makes a big difference – and we thrive off it,\u201d said Legodi.<\/p>\n
