Delhi breach 260-run mark to set new record in women's domestic T20s

New Delhi, Oct 29 (UNI) Delhi rewrote the record books in the Senior Women's T20 Trophy, piling up 262 for 6 against Hyderabad in Pune to register the highest total by any women's team in domestic T20 cricket.
The previous record belonged to Goa, which had scored 257 for 2 against Arunachal Pradesh in the 2019-20 season. Delhi's mammoth total is also the 11th-highest in women's T20 cricket overall, with the 10 scores above it all coming in women's T20 Internationals.
Opening batter Tanisha Singh was at the heart of Delhi's record-breaking effort, smashing 119 off just 47 deliveries. The 23-year-old reached her century in 38 balls, making it the joint third-fastest hundred in women's T20 cricket. Only Kiran Navgire, who took 34 balls, and Sophie Devine, who reached the milestone in 36, have recorded quicker centuries. Tanisha's effort matched Deandra Dottin's 38-ball hundred against South Africa in 2010.
