Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur has slammed her seventh century in Women's ODIs. The Indian skipper reached the three-figure mark in the 3rd and final WODI against England at Riverside Ground, Chester-le-Street. Harmanpreet led from the front after Smriti Mandhana's dismissal left India reeling at 81/2. The former equaled legend Mithali Raj in terms of WODI tons for India. She also completed 4,000 WODI runs. Harmanpreet came to the middle after Pratika Rawal (26) and Mandhana (45) gave India a solid start. The Indian skipper started well and eventually took India past 160 along with Harleen Deol. She followed it up with a 110-run stand with Jemimah Rodrigues. Harmanpreet brought up her 82-ball century in the 47th over. She departed for 102 (84), slamming 14 fours. As per ESPNcricinfo, Harmanpreet now has the joint second-most centuries for India in WODIs. She equaled Mithali, who retired with seven tons. Notably, Mandhana is the only Indian to have scored 10-plus centuries in WODIs (11). No other Indian owns more than five such tons. Besides, Harmanpreet also has 19 half-centuries to her name in the format. Harmanpreet unlocked another achievement earlier in the innings. She became only the third Indian woman to complete 4,000 runs in ODI cricket. Harmanpreet, who has been bolstering India's middle order, attained the feat with her 33rd run in the match. She is only behind Raj (7,805) and Mandhana (4,588) in terms of WODI runs for India. As per Cricbuzz, Harmanpreet's 82-ball ton is now the second-fastest for India in WODIs (by balls). She is only behind Mandhana, who hammered a century off 70 balls against Ireland Women in Rajkot earlier this year. As per ESPNcricinfo, Harmanpreet became the first player to record three-plus centuries against England in WODIs. She has three tons and five half-centuries against England Women. Notably, Anjum Chopra and Karuna Jain are the only other Indian women with an ODI ton against England. Richa Ghosh took the onus after Harmanpreet's dismissal. She slammed 2 sixes and 3 fours in her 18-ball 38*. As a result, India racked up 318/5, the third-highest total against England in WODIs, as per Cricbuzz.
