Since their 2017 World Cup semi-final defeat against Harmanpreet Kaur-inspired India, Australia have won 24 of the 25 ODIs they have competed in.
The Australian women’s international cricket team is in a league of their own. They have been for a while.

Meg Lanning and Co achieved the staggering record at Bay Oval, Mount Maunganui, with a comfortable six-wicket win over New Zealand in the first ODI of a three-match series.

Since her debut in 1999, Mithali has scored 10,125 international runs. England’s Charlotte Edwards (10,273) is the only other player to have crossed 10,000 international runs
Batting giant Mithali Raj became the first Indian woman and the second woman player to score 10,000 runs in international cricket across all formats. She achieved the feat during the third ODI in the recently concluded India-South Africa series. In a career spanning 22 years, Mithali has been one of India’s most prolific batters, particularly in One Day Internationals. She has scored the most runs in the world in the format and is among the few batters to have an average over 50.

Fifth ODI: Consistent South Africa outplay India in low-scoring match to win series 4-1

Screengrab
South Africa outplayed India in all departments to register a five-wicket win in the low-scoring fifth and final One-day International to seal the series 4-1 in Lucknow on Wednesday.
Mithali Raj top scored for India with a well-crafted 79 not out but the rest of batting lineup couldn’t rally around it, finishing with 188/9 with Harmanpreet Kaur retiring hurt on 30 off 55. South Africa then rode on Anneke Bosch (58) and Mignon du Preez’s (57) half-centuries to chase down the target in 48.2 overs.
The series marked India’s return to international cricket after 12 months. Coming back after a long break, the India players had only a handful of training sessions ahead of the series as they also had to undergo a mandatory one week quarantine. They were naturally rusty to start with and by the end of the series, it seemed that they have a lot of work to do if they want to be title contenders for the World Cup early next year.

Mithali Raj on Sunday became the first woman to score 7,000 runs in One Day International cricket. Already the highest run getter in the format, the India captain reached the 7,000-run milestone in her 213th match, which was the fourth match against South Africa in Lucknow.
In the last match, the 38-year-old had become just the second woman to reach 10,000 international runs after England’s Charlotte Edwards. She had surpassed Edwards tally to become highest run-getter and the first woman to breach 6,000-run mark in ODIs at the 2017 World Cup.
