Jemimah, Smriti, Titas set up India's easy win v WI

India put on a dominant display with the bat after being put into bat with Rodrigues and Smriti Mandhana (54) leading the way.

Their 81-run second-wicket partnership helped India post 195/4 -- their highest T20I total. Seamer Titas Sadhu (3/37) then stood out as the Indian bowlers followed it up with regular breakthroughs to undermine the West Indies chase. Although she dismissed captain Hayley Matthews early, opener Qiana Joseph (49-33b, 5x4, 3x6) set a solid foundation before Sadhu foxed her with a slower delivery, which the batter chipped to mid-off.
