The victory ensured their progression tothe semifinals, where they are set to face either Australia or South Africa next week, following their final group fixture against Bangladesh.
The foundation of India’s commanding win was laid by openers Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal, both of whomscored brilliant centuries to put the team in control.
