India 435/5 (50 overs: P Rawal 154, S Mandhana 135, R Ghosh 59, T Hasabnis 28; O Prendergast 2-71)

India's openers Smriti Mandhana and Pratika Rawal both scored centuries (BCCI)
A new record ODI score for India as openers Smriti Mandhana and Prakita Rawal both posted centuries in an opening partnership of 233 giving an indication of what was in store for Ireland’s bowlers. No let up in the second half of the innings as Richa Ghosh blasted a half century (10x4, 1x6). One commentator saying if it had been a boxing match the referee would have stepped in long ago! Gaby Lewis gone in the first over LBW missing a pull shot and Christina Coulter Reilly is bowled without scoring, not the start Ireland were hoping for. Two 'new' spinners await the Girls in Green today - Tanuja Kanwar a slow left armer and off spinner Minnu Mani. Promising third wicket stand of 64 is ended with the dismissal of Prendergast, quickly followed by the run out of Forbes. Wickets continued to tumble on a day to forget.
2nd ODI: India beat Ireland by 116 runs
Rajkot, 12 January.
India 370/5 (50 overs: J Rodrigues 102, H Deol 89; S Mandhana 73, P Rwal 67; O Prendergast 2-75, A Kelly 2-82, G Dempsey 1-42)
Ireland 254/7 (50 overs: C Coulter Reilly 80, S Forbes 38, L Delany 37, L Paul 27*; D Sharma 3-37, P Mishra 2-53)
Jemimah Rodrigues celebrates her maiden ODI century (BCCI)
Ireland's attack put to the sword as an opening partnership of 156 set India on their way to their highest ever ODI total. Runs all down the order and a sparkling maiden ODI century for Jemima Rodrigues. Ireland without Aimee Maguire and although Laura Delany is in the side she didn't bowl today. There was no prospect of a successful Irish chase but a maiden half-century for Christina Coulter Reilly in 50+ partnerships with Sarah Forbes and Laura Delany on a day when there was no contribution from Gaby Lewis or Orla Prendergast will cheer the Irish camp as they better their match 1 total.
1st ODI: India beat Ireland by 6 wickets
Rajkot, 10 January.
Ireland 238/7 (50 overs: G Lewis 92, L Paul 59, A Kelly 28; P Mishra 2-56)
India 241/4 (33.3 overs: Pratika Rawal 89, T Hasabnis 53*, S Mandhana 41, H Deol 20; A Maguire 3-57, F Sargent 1-38)
Captains Gaby Lewis and Smriti Mandhana with the Trophy (BCCI)
A record breaking fifth wicket partnership of 117 between skipper Gaby Lewis and Leah Paul rescued Ireland for a precarious 56/4, and aided by a sloppy display in the field by India enabled the visitors to post a respectable total in this first of three ODIs. It was made to look very inadequate however as the hosts romped home with more than 16 overs to spare despite resting their leading strike bowler Ranuka Singh and regular captain Harmanpreet Kaur. Pratika Rawal took full advantage of a chance to open the innings scoring a run-a-ball 89, falling to a third catch by Orla Prendergast, a third wicket for Aimee Maguire, as Rawal chased a maiden ODI century. Next match in the series is on Sunday, same time, same place. India's win moves them into second place in the Championship table above England.
