India captain Harmanpreet Kaur on Tuesday said her team wanted to win the three-match Women’s ODI series against New Zealand “at any cost” after a forgettable outing in the recent T20 World Cup.
India failed to reach the semi-finals of the T20 showpiece in the UAE and entered the third and final ODI against the Kiwis with the series tied at 1-1 here. Smriti Mandhana (100 off 122 balls), who wasn’t able to showcase her class at the top of the order in the two previous games, made her 8th ODI hundred century, the most by an Indian in the format, while Kaur remained not out on 59 as India won the match by six wickets.
