On 24th December at Vadodara, Gujarat, the Indian women sealed the ODI series against the West Indies on Tuesday by beating the opposition by 115 runs. The fixture also saw multiple records being broken including India posting their joint-highest ODI total. Also, it had the highest match aggregate involving Indian women and West Indies women.
India won the toss, elected to bat first, and justified the decision right from the start. The opening pair of Smriti Mandhana (53) and Pratika Rawal (76) stitched an opening partnership of 110 runs. Mandhana departed immediately after scoring a half-century but Harleen Deol arrived at the crease at No.3 and stole the show after that. She played a knock of 115 runs from 103 deliveries while Jemimah Rodrigues scored a half-century in the lower order.
358/5 posted by India on the scoreboard which is their joint-highest total in ODI cricket. Earlier, the team had scored 358/2 in the fixture against Ireland seven years back. Harleen Deol scored her maiden ODI hundred in the fixture and helped the team post a mammoth total.
Except for Hayley Matthews West Indies batters struggled in chasing the huge total of 359. The Caribbean opener played a valiant knock of 106 runs for the visitors but lacked support from the other end. Despite Matthews scoring a hundred, the team got bundled out on a total of 243. Three wickets were picked by Priya Mishra while Deepti Sharma, Titas Sadhu, and Pratika Rawal contributed with two wickets each. The team took an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
