Australia and India shattered a number of women’s ODI records during a run-infested series decider in Delhi ahead of the World Cup.<\/p>\n

Australia triumphed by 43 runs to take the series 2-1 in a game in which 781 runs were amassed in total, the most in the history of women’s ODI cricket.<\/p>\n

That haul eclipsed the 678 runs England and South Africa registered combined in Bristol during the 2017 Cricket World Cup.<\/p>\n

\n Score summary – India vs Australia, third ODI\n <\/p>\n

Australia 412 all out in 47.5 overs: Beth Mooney (138 off 75 balls), Georgia Voll (81 off 68), Ellyse Perry (68 off 72); Arundhati Reddy (3-86 from 8.5 overs)<\/p>\n

India 369 all out in 47 overs: Smriti Mandhana (125 off 63 balls), Deepti Sharma (72 off 58), Harmanpreet Kaur (52 off 35); Kim Garth (3-69 from nine overs)<\/p>\n

Australia made 412 all out batting first with Beth Mooney (138 off 75 balls) cracking the then joint second-fastest hundred in women’s ODIs, from 57 deliveries.<\/p>\n

But Mooney was outdone by India’s Smriti Mandhana (125 off 63), who clubbed a 50-ball ton in the run chase before India fell short on 369 all out.<\/p>\n

Only former Australia batter Meg Lanning has scored a quicker women’s ODI hundred than Mandhana, doing so from 45 balls against New Zealand in 2012.<\/p>\n

What other records fell in Delhi?<\/p>\n

Aside from the most runs scored in a women’s ODI, the most boundaries were also hit in the format (111, with 99 fours and 12 sixes).<\/p>\n

India’s total was the highest in a run chase in women’s ODIs, overtaking the 321-6 South Africa struck pursuing 326 against India in Bengaluru last year.<\/p>\n
