India Women’s Cricket Team is coming back home with a super win in that ODI Tri-series they played with Sri Lanka and South Africa. They totally nailed it in the final match in Colombo, beating Sri Lanka by a huge margin of 97 runs and grabbing the trophy! This victory is gonna give them a big ol' confidence boost just before the Women’s World Cup in October. And get this, next month they’ve got a T20I series and an ODI series lined up against England! So, in the final showdown, Smriti Mandhana, the team’s vice-captain, was like the batting queen. She scored her 11th ODI century and totally stole the show. India Women’s Team went ahead and set a massive 342/7 on the board in their 50 overs, which is like their best score ever against Sri Lanka in ODIs. Then, when it was Sri Lanka’s turn to bat, they just couldn’t keep up and got out at 245. This chick from Sri Lanka, Chamari Athapaththu, did her best and scored the most for her team with a solid 51. But our girl Sneh Rana from India came in clutch with four wickets to her name. Now, after not doing so hot in WPL 2025, everyone was watching Smriti Mandhana like a hawk. In the previous four games, she scored a decent 43, 36, and 51, but she didn’t really go all out. But oh boy, she changed the game in the final match! She scored a fantastic 116 runs, smacking 15 fours and 2 sixes like it was nothing. Her batting was so smooth, with a strike rate of 114.85 – talk about elegance with power!
