The highest aggregate total in both men’s ODIs and List A matches is 872 between South Africa and Australia at Johannesburg in 2006.
Australia’s 412 is the joint sixth-highest total by a side in women’s ODIs, equalling their national record when they made 412-3 against Denmark at the 1997 Women’s World Cup in Mumbai.
Mandhana also hit a century in India’s thumping 102-run to level the series in the second ODI. She is the second batter to hit back-to-back ODI hundreds after England’s Tammy Beaumont.
Only former Australia captain Meg Lanning has made a quicker century in women’s ODIs – off 45 balls against New Zealand in 2012.
The 111 boundaries – 99 fours and 12 sixes – hit at the Arun Jaitley Stadium is also a record in women’s ODIs.
Victory extends Australia’s run of winning every bilateral ODI series of the 11 they have played against India.
Australia have won nine consecutive ODI series since they lost 2-1 to England in the 2023 Women’s Ashes.
A thrilling series, which started with a formidable win by Australia before India hit back with their own comprehensive victory and concluded with this run-fest, underlines why the sides are the two favourites for the 2025 Women’s World Cup.
The 50-over tournament, hosted by India and Sri Lanka, starts on 30 September, with the hosts facing each other in Guwahati, before Australia begin their title defence on 1 October against New Zealand in Indore.
