India set a new team record for their highest-ever total in ODI cricket, racking up 435-5 against Ireland in the third ODI on Wednesday (January 15).
India skipper Smriti Mandhana won the toss at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot, as India brought in Tanuja Kanwar and Minnu Mani for Saima Thakor and Priya Mishra.
Mandhana and fellow opener Pratika Rawal set the tone from the start, putting on their fifth 50-plus stand and then fourth 100-plus stand in six innings together. The fifty came up in just 6.3 overs, and the hundred in just 12.5.
