With a stunning batting display, India also topped their previous highest total at home. The team moved past the earlier record of 400/9 against South Africa in 2014.
India resumed the final session of the day at 261/4 with Harmanpreet Kaur and Yastika Bhatia unbeaten on 25 (41 balls) and 15(18) respectively. While Kaur remained solid, Yastika delivered some spectacular drives to propel India cross the 300-run barrier with loss of four wickets at the end of 62 overs.
