Cracking centuries by Beth Mooney (138) and Smriti Mandhana (125) set ablaze the decider of the three-match ODI series between India and Australia in Delhi.
Chasing 413 for a win, Mandhana got the hosts to a fiery start by notching her second successive ton in the ongoing series. It was the second fastest century in Women’s ODI history, and fastest-ever for India Women.
Deepti Sharma (72) tried to keep the chase going, when Mandhana and skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (52) fell, after stitching a 121-run partnership, but the hosts eventually fell short by 43 runs.
