5 records that were created in ICC Women's World Cup 2017

#4 Highest score against a full member in women's ODIs

Chamari Athapaththu scored 178 of her side's 257 runs against Australia

Former Australian captain Belinda Clark was the first cricketer to score a double-century in ODIs when she scored an unbeaten 229 off just 155 balls against Denmark in the 1997 ICC Women's World Cup in Mumbai.

This was the highest score by a woman in ODI cricket and the second highest belongs to India's own Deepti Sharma, who scored 188 against Ireland in Potchefstroom just before the start of the World Cup. Although Ireland have become a full member of the ICC, they were still an associate team when Deepti scored the highest score by an Indian woman in ODIs.

Without any disrespect to either of these players, their knocks came against associate teams. Before the start of the World Cup, the highest individual score against a full member was held by England's Sarah Taylor, who scored 171 against Sri Lanka in 2013.

The recently-concluded World Cup saw two batters going past Sarah's score of 171 with the latest one being Harmanpreet Kaur who scored an unbeaten 171 against the Aussies in the semifinal, an innings considered by many to be the greatest by an Indian in a World Cup.

Earlier in the tournament, veteran Sri Lankan batsman Chamari Athapaththu scored an unbeaten 178 against the defending champions Australia, the highest ever score in women's ODIs against a full member of the ICC.

Chamari scored her runs off 143 balls with the help of 22 fours and six sixes, but that wasn't enough for her team to beat the Southern Stars as skipper Meg Lanning's unbeaten 152 off 135 balls was enough for the Aussies to chase down the target of 258 in just 44 overs with eight wickets in hand.
