NEW DELHI: This was India's second biggest win by runs in ODIs, behind the 249-run win over Ireland in 2017.

Mandhana extended her rich vein of form, the opener registering her fourth consecutive half-century as India posted a commanding 314/9.

Building upon her stellar performances in the T20Is where she struck three successive fifties and amassed 193 runs in India's 2-1 series victory, Mandhana dazzled with a 102-ball 91 laced with 13 boundaries. She forged a 110-run opening stand with debutant Pratika Rawal (40), but fell short of a century after being trapped leg before by left-arm spinner Zaida James trying to play a paddle shot.
