3 biggest wins for India by runs in women's ODIs

The Indian women's cricket team has some phenomenal records in international cricket. They created many records during the recently-concluded three-match ODI series against Ireland at home.

After the retirements of legends like Mithali Raj and Jhulan Goswami in recent years, the youngsters have stepped up and produced some memorable performances. The Women's Premier League (WPL) has also played a substantial role as it has given a platform for talented cricketers in the country to showcase their skills against some of the best players in world cricket.

The biggest winning margin in Women's ODI cricket in terms of runs is 408. New Zealand registered this win against Pakistan at Christchurch in 1997. On that note, here is a look at three of the biggest wins in terms of runs for the Indian women's team in ODI cricket.
