Her cross examination would not help you at all and you must engage a good criminal lawyer because you could get into trouble otherwise.
You should leave it for the court to take appropriate decision. In a pending case, no prediction is possible.
cross examination, in the present case is very important. your lawyer may compel the girl to speak the truth during her cross examination. you may also collect the proofs of her age.
