Soon after reaching her half-century, Mandhana fell, and India found it difficult to gain pace in the middle overs.India reached 214 all out in 48.3 overs as Harmanpreet and Kashvee's partnership for the eighth wicket helped them surpass 200. While Alana King took only one wicket but was difficult for India's hitters to dismiss, Ash Gardner took three for Australia.
