Georgia Voll and Ellyse Perry struck centuries as Australia delivered a dominating batting display to thrash India by 122 runs in the second Women’s ODI to take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series, here on Sunday.

Youngster Voll smashed an 87-ball 101, her maiden century in only her second ODI, while veteran Perry also toyed with the Indian bowling attack with a 75-ball 105, studded with six sixes and seven fours as Australia posted a towering 371/8 after opting to bat.

Australia also had two half-centurions in Phoebe Litchfield (60; 63b) and Beth Mooney (56; 44b) as they decimated the Indian attack. Saima Thakor was the pick of the bowlers with 3/62.
