Harmanpreet Kaur slammed a century against South Africa as India won a hard-fought ICC Women’s Cricket World Cup warm-up match by two runs in Christchurch on Sunday. Kaur’s century was the highlight for India while batting, but Smriti Mandhana retiring hurt due to a blow to the head raised alarm. In South Africa’s chase, Laura Wolvaardt and captain Sune Luus scored half-centuries while Rajeshwari Gayakwad provided the star turn for India with four wickets. The left-arm spinner scalped two wickets in the final over, including that of the SA captain Luus.
