Opener Pratika Rawal struck an unbeaten half-century, whereas Smriti Mandhana and Harleen Deol made helpful contributions as India comfortably defeated Sri Lanka by nine wickets within the rain-curtailed Women’s ODI tri-series match right here on Sunday.
Pratika (50 not out) and Mandhana (43) have been concerned in a 54-run stand for the opening wicket earlier than the Delhi teenager solid an unbeaten 95-run stand with Harleen (48 not out) as India chased down the 148-run goal in 29.4 overs.
In a match decreased to 39 overs per-side attributable to a delay of three hours following heavy showers, Sri Lanka have been bundled out for 147 in 38.1 overs with Sneh Rana (3/31), Shree Charani (2/26) and Deepti Sharma (2/22) doing the harm.
None of the Sri Lankan batters might get an enormous knock as Hasini Perera made 30 in 46 balls and Kavisha Dilhari contributed a 26-ball 25.

Sri Lanka: 147 all out in 38.1 overs (Hasini Perera 30; Sneh Rana 3/31, Shree Charani 2/26, Depti Sharma 2/22).
