 NZ women vs India women 4th ODI: Richa Ghosh registers fastest fifty by Indian but Mithali Raj’s side lose by 63 runs

Team India lost the rain-affected fourth ODI by 63 runs. Chasing a massive 192 runs to win, India were bowled out for just 128.

India women team batter Richa Ghosh on Tuesday (February 22) recorded the fastest fifty by an Indian batter in women’s ODI cricket. She achieved the feat in the fourth ODI against New Zealand here at the John Davies Oval, Queenstown.

However, Team India lost the rain-affected fourth ODI by 63 runs. Chasing a massive 192 runs to win, India were bowled out for just 128 in 17.5 overs in spite of Ghosh’s fantastic fifty

Ghosh brought up her fifty off just 26 balls with the help of four 4s and four 6s. She departed after playing a knock of 52 runs. Ghosh smashed the record of Veda Krishnamurthy, who reached her fifty in 32 balls against South Africa women's team in Kimberly in February 2018. Sabbhineni Meghana has the record for third-fastest fifty off 33 balls against New Zealand earlier in this ongoing ODI series
