The inaugural edition of the women’s under-19 T20 World Cup got underway on Saturday, January 14, in South Africa. 16 teams will participate in the competition which comprises 41 matches, with the final scheduled on January 29 in Potchefstroom.
Indian fans are very much excited to cheer for their team, in particular, because Shafali Verma, who is leading the side, and Richa Ghosh, the wicket-keeper of the team, are part of this under-19 team; both Shafali and Richa have represented the senior women’s Indian team, and hence their participation in this tournament is a much-hyped one.
There is also one player, from West Indies, in this tournament who has got the fans talking: Shunelle Sawh, for the looks of whom the fans are already buzzing before she has even taken the field in the event.
The 18-year-old Shunelle Sawh hails from Trinidad and Tobago, and is a wicket-keeper and right-handed batter. ESPNcricinfo has logged in two of her performances in which Shunelle has scored 19 and 2 runs earlier this month.
For the fans, though, it is her attractive looks that they have been falling over. In the photoshoot for the tournament, Shunelle Sawh looks stunning, holding her bat in her arms and beaming with glee. Her curly hair certainly adds to her decorative features.
Several fans online have posted pictures of the charming Shunelle Sawh with heart emojis:
Fans are swooning with love and affection over Shunelle Sawh.
Shunelle Sawh has gotten over 18,000 Instagram followers, and the number is certain to rise in the coming weeks as she gets more and more television time and hogs the attention of the fans across the globe, specifically in Asia.
