In a commanding display of bowling, India pacer Renuka Thakur and spinner Deepti Sharma led their team to a resounding win over the West Indies in the concluding women's ODI of the series. Thakur's pinpoint accuracy and Deepti's spin completely overpowered the visiting side on Friday.
Thakur claimed four wickets for just 29 runs, effectively dismantling the West Indies' top order. Deepti followed with a career-best performance, taking six wickets for 31 runs. Their efforts left the West Indies reeling and struggling to post a competitive total.
The only significant resistance came from a 97-run partnership between Chinelle Henry and Shemaine Campbelle, which allowed their team to cross the 160 mark. However, it was too little too late as India wrapped up the series with an unassailable lead.
