Kamini century sets up India's huge win

Thu, Jan 31, '13

Hosts India made a rousing start to their Women's World Cup campaign with a demolition of West Indies, a show that deserved more than half a stand watching at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai. Their opener Thirush Kamini, playing her first international game in three years, pushed on from a steady start to make the first World Cup century by an India woman. Kamini also added 175 with fellow opener Poonam Raut - the highest such partnership for India in the Women's World Cup and also their highest against a Full Member team.
