5:04 PM IST India Women set the tone for their victory with a formidable batting display, posting an impressive total of 195 runs.

Smriti Mandhana also made a significant contribution, scoring a well-crafted half-century to provide a solid foundation for the Indian innings. The team got off to a flying start, and the middle order ensured that the momentum was maintained throughout. The West Indies bowlers, however, did manage to pick up a few wickets, with Karishma Ramharack claiming two scalps and Deandra Dottin chipping in with one.
