In 2025, women's ODIs reached unprecedented heights, with many players rewriting significant portions of the women's ODI batting record book while also scoring extremely well and consistently.

Australia has been known to be a tough place for visiting batsmen. With its pace, bounce, and lengthy boundaries, players face issues while scoring runs, especially in the shortest format of the game. But there have been a few Indian batsmen who have been able to tackle the conditions with ease and bring huge scores for the team in this format.

Limited-overs cricket is all about fast-paced action, where every batsman aims to give their best contribution to the team while also maintaining their strike rate. Scoring a century in the ODI format is a huge milestone for any individual, and it also acts as a major boost for the team, whether they are batting first or chasing the score.
