“We did what we were expecting. The way our openers gave us the start, after that Harleen’s batting and Jemi was also there to support the team. Really happy with the way we batted. Even in the second innings, the way Hayley was batting, it indicated this pitch was better for batters. We had a decent total on the board and the way our bowlers were bowling, we had that trust on them that they can, at any point, take a wicket and turn the tables,” said Harmanpreet at the post-match presentation.

Opting to bat first, Smriti Mandhana (53) and Pratika Rawal (76) provided a solid 110-run opening stand. Harleen Deol stole the spotlight with an impressive 115 off 103 balls, laced with 16 boundaries. Her partnership with Jemimah Rodrigues (52 off 36 balls) further propelled India to a formidable total of 358/5 – their joint-highest score in Women’s ODIs.

In response, West Indies skipper Hayley Matthews (106 off 109) stood tall with a resilient century, but the Indian bowling attack, spearheaded by Priya Mishra (3/49), proved too strong. Pratika Rawal (2/37), Deepti Sharma (2/40), and Titas Sadhu (2/42) contributed effectively, bundling out the visitors for 243 in 46.2 overs.

With this emphatic victory, India Women lead the three-match series 2-0, with the final ODI scheduled for December 27.
