2nd ODI: Momentum On Their Side, India Women Eye Series Win Against West Indies

Coming off one of their biggest wins in terms of runs, fancied India will look to guard against complacency when they take on a beleaguered West Indies side with an aim to bag the three-match series in the second Women's ODI in Vadodara on Tuesday. India will be entering the game on the back of a massive 211-run victory over the visitors in the series opener in which the Harmanpreet Kaur-led team ticked almost all the boxes. Every match the teams play in the coming months will be significant as the ICC World Cup is scheduled to be held in the country next year.

"Five-Year Wait Did Not...": India Women's Captain Smriti Mandhana After West Indies Series Win

India stand-in skipper Smriti Mandhana said the five-year wait they had to go through to win a T20I series at home did not "reflect" the team's capabilities, a fact she reminded her colleagues ahead of the series decider here on Thursday. Put in to bat, India dished out a dominating batting display. Mandhana (77; 47b) set the foundation before Richa Ghosh (54; 21b) equalled the record for the joint-quickest fifty as the hosts posted their highest T20I total of 217/4. In response, West Indies were limited to 157/9 as India sealed the three-match series 2-1, their first series victory at home since 2019.

India Star Smriti Mandhana Now Top 3 In Both ODI And T20I Rankings

India Women Have Done Well At Home, West Indies Series Important To Get Confidence Back: Harmanpreet Kaur

Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur on Saturday backed the Indian women's team to regain confidence in home conditions during the three-match T20I series against the West Indies, following a disappointing T20 World Cup campaign and a 0-3 defeat in Australia. Having failed to progress beyond the group stage in the T20 World Cup in October, India bounced back with a 2-1 ODI series win against New Zealand at home. However, their 0-3 loss in the ODI series in Australia has once again put the team under significant pressure.

1st T20I: Under-fire Harmanpreet Kaur's India Face Gritty West Indies

Her poor leadership under constant scanner, a beleaguered Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur will need to quickly pick up pieces from the Australia series debacle as hosts take on West Indies in the opening game of the three-match WT20I series starting in Navi Mumbai on Sunday. India have won each of their last eight T20Is against the West Indies in the shortest format since November 2019. But to maintain this dominating run, India will have to dig deep from rapidly depleting reservoirs of both resources and confidence to keep the ship afloat.

India Women Whitewashed 0-3 By Australia, Smriti Mandhana Century Goes In Vain

Opener Smriti Mandhana's elegant century went in vain as India lost to Australia by 83 runs in the third Women's ODI to suffer a 0-3 series whitewash here on Wednesday. Opting to field after winning the toss, India had Australia on the ropes at 78 for four before middle-order batter Annabel Sutherland's scintillating 95-ball 110, and brisk half centuries from Ashleigh Gardner (50) and skipper Tahlia McGrath (56 not out), lifted the hosts to a competitive 298 for six in the allotted 50 overs at WACA.
