3rd ODI: Smriti Hits Epic 125 But Australia Beat India By 43 Runs, Win Series 2-1 (ld)
Arun Jaitley Stadium: The series decider between India and Australia lived up to its billing, producing a staggering 748 runs - the highest aggregate in a women’s ODI - featuring 99 fours and 12 sixes at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Saturday.
Both teams had centurions in the run-fest: Beth Mooney smashed a hundred off just 57 balls as Australia posted 412, while Smriti Mandhana went faster, reaching her century in 50 balls - the fastest ever by an Indian women’s batter in ODIs.
Despite Smriti’s blazing 125 and fine half-centuries by Deepti Sharma (72) and Harmanpreet Kaur (52), India fell short by 43 runs as Australia sealed the series 2-1.
