India registered a comprehensive 155-run win over the West Indies in their third match of the ongoing ICC Women's World Cup at the Seddon Park in Hamilton. It was an all-round performance from the Mithali Raj-led side as West Indies unbeaten run in the tournament came to an end. India rode on centuries from Smriti Mandhana (123) and Harmanpreet Kaur (109) to post a total of 317 for eight in 50 overs. The bowlers then did the job after a shaky start, which saw the West Indies collect 100 runs for the first wicket stand.
Skipper Mithali Raj on Saturday hailed India's "special effort" to comprehensively beat West Indies by 155 runs but wants more consistency in the upcoming games of the ICC Women's ODI World Cup. Coming into the match following a loss against hosts New Zealand, India dished out a splendid allround performance to notch up a dominating win over West Indies and top the points table. "Could not have asked anything better than today's display. Today's win should keep us in the (frame) tournament for the knockouts. Batting and bowling really came out well," Raj said in the post-match presentation.
