The Indian women’s team seems to have found another gear in recent times. After breaking their personal best record for the highest total in ODIs by scoring 370 runs in the second ODI in the ongoing series against Ireland, they came back with yet another emphatic performance in the third ODI, putting a record total of 435 for 5 on the board. This is only the sixth instance in women’s ODIs where a team has crossed the 400-run mark in an innings. Before India, New Zealand has achieved it four times, while Australia has one 400-plus total to their name.
 
The women in blue’s record becomes even more special as it is not just India’s highest total in women’s ODIs but also the highest in ODIs for both men and women combined. The highest ODI score by India’s men’s team is 418 for 5, which they scored against the West Indies back in 2011.
