IND-W V AUS-W: Richa Ghosh's 96, Deepti's 5-38 In Vain As Australia Win Thriller By 3 Runs, Claim Series 2-0
Richa Ghosh: Richa Ghosh struck a 117-ball 96 after off-spinner Deepti Sharma claimed a fifer but their efforts went in vain as India Women went down to Australia Women by three runs in a thrilling second ODI, thus clinching the three-match series 2-0 here on Saturday.
Deepti Sharma claimed 5-38 but dropped catches by India Women and fifties by opener Phoebe Litchfield (63) and Ellyse Perry (50) helped Australia Women reach 258/8 in 50 overs at the Wankhede Stadium.
In reply, India could manage 255/8 in 50 overs, losing their way from a strong position after Australia won the toss and elected to bat first. Smriti Mandhana, who had dropped a couple of catches while fielding, struck a 38-ball 34 to give India a good start.
