India's women's team set a national record by making 435-5 during its massive win over Ireland in a one-day cricket international on Wednesday.
It was India's highest score in ODIs by either its men's or women's team.
It was the fourth highest total in the history of women's ODI's, with New Zealand scoring more on three occasions. Two of those came against Ireland, including a women's world-record 491-4 in Dublin in 2018.
Pratika Rawal (154) and captain Smriti Mandhana (135) both scored centuries in their 233-run partnership for the opening wicket in Rajkot after India won the toss and chose to bat.
India then dismissed Ireland for 131 to clinch a 304-run win and a 3-0 series victory.
