Australia have set a colossal target of 413 runs for India Women after a relentless batting display in the 3rd ODI at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi. Electing to bat first, Australia piled on 412 runs before being bowled out in the 47.5th over.

Australia reached key milestones quickly, crossing 50 in 5.6 overs, 100 in 13.3 overs, and 150 in 20.6 overs. Mooney’s century came off just 57 balls, and Australia continued to dominate throughout, amassing 400 runs by the 46.4 over mark. However, a late flurry of wickets saw the Aussies bowled out for 412 in 47.5 overs. The bowlers for India, including Kranti Goud and Renuka Singh, faced immense pressure, with Goud picking up 1 wicket for 56 runs in her 6 overs. With an enormous target set, India now faces the challenge of chasing down a mammoth total in the second innings.
