Beat Sri Lanka by 97-run at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium on Sunday

India Clinch ODI Tri-Series

Vice-captain Smriti Mandhana hit a sublime 116 off 101 balls while Sneh Rana and Amanjot Kaur shined with stellar bowling efforts as a dominant India clinched the women's ODI tri-series with an emphatic 97-run win over Sri Lanka at the R Premadasa International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

On a pitch which was initially slow and got better to bat on as the innings progressed, Smriti was at the forefront of a brilliant batting day for India by slamming her 11th ODI hundred and oozing absolute elegance in her stroke-play.

Her efforts led the way for India posting 342/7 in their 50 overs, the highest total made in a women's ODI game in Sri Lanka.

In reply, Sneh stepped up to once again be India's standout bowler, as she picked up 4-38. On the other hand, Amanjot yet again impressed with figures of 3-54 as Sri Lanka were bowled out for 245 in 48.2 overs. A chase of 343 was always going to be an uphill task for Sri Lanka, and they were never really in it, despite their Chamari Athapaththu making 51.
