Harmanpreet Kaur and Deepti Sharma plundered twin tons for Team India against Zimbabwe Women in their second ODI match at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara on October 25, 2026. 

The two cricketers also shattered numerous partnership and individual batting records through the course of their latest mayhem.

It is worth noting that Harmanpreet Kaur and Deepti’s collective efforts catapulted the Indian Women total to a monumental 328/6 in 50 overs.
