Mithali’s ‘Raj’ continued in Indian women’s cricket when
Railways emerged victorious against a strong Maharashtra team at Secunderabad.
Winning by a margin of 57 runs, Railways registered a comprehensive win over
Maharashtra. Skipper Mithali Raj (68) and all-rounder Niranjana Nagarajan (53)
helped Railways to post a formidable total of 218-6. Anuja Patil picked up
three important wickets but did not receive much support from the other end.
Smriti Mandhana (78) had set the stage for Maharashtra but her efforts went in
vain when none of the other Maharashtra batswoman could carry the baton till
the end. Niranjana Nagarajan (2-31), Sneh Rana (2-29) and Harmanpreet Kaur (2-22)
were too good to handle for Maharashtra.
