3rd ODI: India smash record 435 vs Ireland
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: India Women set a new benchmark in one-day international cricket on Wednesday by recording their highest-ever total in the format. Powered by centuries from Pratika Rawal and skipper Smriti Mandhana, India crossed the 370-run mark in the 42nd over of the third ODI against Ireland in Rajkot, rewriting their previous record.
India are already 2-0 up in the series, and will be eyeing a whitewash against their Irish opponents who will aim to avoid a whitewash and secure valuable Championship points.
India posted a mammoth 435/5 in their allotted 50 overs, surpassing all previous team totals by both Indian men's and women's teams in ODIs.
This monumental feat overshadowed the Indian men's highest score of 418/5, achieved against the West Indies in Indore in 2011.
Other notable entries on the list include 414/7 against Sri Lanka in Rajkot (2009), 413/5 against Bermuda in the 2007 World Cup, and 410/4 against the Netherlands in Bengaluru (2023). The Rajkot innings marked a defining moment, further showcasing the rising dominance of India Women in international cricket.
Just three days earlier, India Women had posted 370 for 5, their highest ODI total at the time. However, they surpassed their own record in emphatic fashion during this match.
