India recorded a comprehensive win over Zimbabwe in the second women's ODI on Sunday, cruising to victory by 121 runs at the Vadodara stadium. The home side's batting performance proved decisive, with the Indian team posting 328 runs for the loss of six wickets after choosing to bat first.
Harmanpreet Kaur and all-rounder Deepti Sharma were the architects of India's substantial total, both registering half-centuries in the partnership that anchored the innings. Their contributions proved too much for the visiting Zimbabwe side to overcome in the chase.
Zimbabwe's batting lineup struggled against the Indian bowling attack, managing only 207 runs in response. The visiting team's inability to build significant partnerships proved costly as they fell well short of the target set by their hosts.
The victory extends India's dominance in the series and demonstrates the depth of talent within the Indian women's cricket setup. The emphatic win marks another strong performance in the ongoing bilateral engagement between the two nations.
