IND vs WI : Match Summary

The West Indies team started the chase in a great manner getting to 100 runs without any loss in the first 12 overs itself and it seemed like a tight game was in the making. However, Deandra Dottin, who top-scored with 62 off 46 balls for women from the Caribbean, was feeling uncomfortable with injury and got out eventually to Sneh Rana. Post her dismissal, the rest of the team fell for only 62 more runs as West Indies were all out for 162 in the 41st over. Sneh Rana finished with figures of 3/22 in her 9.3 overs.

Earlier in the day, the Indian team got to a great total as centuries from Mandhana and Harmanpreet took the women in blue to 317/8 in the 50 overs. Those two were the pillars of strength for the teams as they added 184 for the fourth wicket, the highest ever fourth-wicket stand for India Women in ODIs. The West Indies bowlers were off the mark and Anisa Mohammed picked two wickets for 59 runs.
