Magnificent Mandhana's 79 helps India to Asian Games cricket gold
Smriti Mandhana's whirlwind 79 helped India crush Sri Lanka by 147 runs and win a second consecutive women's cricket gold at the Asian Games on Tuesday.
India smashed 216-3 off their 20 overs, the highest women's total in Asian Games history, with 18 fours and 13 sixes.
Richa Ghosh and Bharti Fulmali plundered 25 off the final over from the hapless Mithali Ayodhya, who did not help her cause by conceding eight wides.
Sri Lanka were never in the hunt and captain Chamari Athapaththu's 29 was their only innings of note as they were skittled for 69 in 15.4 overs and had to settle for silver.
Opening batter Mandhana hit seven sixes and five fours in a 45-ball knock that sent the ball to all parts of the Korogi Athletic Park ground in Nagoya.
After India captain Harmanpreet Kaur won the toss and opted to bat, Shafali Verma, who made an unbeaten century in the semi-final, and Mandhana put on a blistering opening partnership.
The pair had raced to 99 in the 10th over when Verma had a rush of blood, playing a needless reverse sweep which she top-edged to Kawya Kavindi at point to fall for 48 off 29 balls.
Mandhana, the greatest run scorer in women's T20 cricket history, had reached her fifty earlier in the over and sailed on in style, clubbing anything loose to the boundary.
Harmanpreet joined her and the pair took the score to 141 before the captain holed out to long-off for 19.
Mandhana, looking to accelerate further in the latter overs, skied an attempted six and was out in the 17th over with the score on 163.
Ghosh clattered 49 off 22 balls with three sixes and six fours to take India past 200 in the final over.
Earlier, some lusty late-order hitting by Pakistan captain Fatima Sana set up a 31-run win over Bangladesh in the bronze medal match.
Sana came in with her side rocking at 67-5 in the 12th over but plundered 45 off 30 balls including three fours and three sixes and was out off the last ball of the 20 overs after seeing Pakistan to 145-8.
Her 67-run partnership with Aliya Riaz (25) for the sixth wicket proved the turning point and Bangladesh could only muster 114-7 in reply.
