Harmanpreet Kaur isn't just a name that plays cricket but a sensation.

When Indian women's cricket team captain is in rhythm, it gets almost impossible to stop the power hitter from Moga. England got a first-hand experience of that on Wednesday when she tamed the Three Lions with a fiery 111-ball-143 not out in the 2nd ODI at Canterbury.

India’s highest individual score against England in Women’s ODIs helped the visitors finish at 333/5, which their all-time second highest total in the format.

Harmanpreet's knock helped India win the 2nd ODI by 88 runs and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the 3-match series. This is India's first series win in England since 1999.

More often than not, when Harmanpreet gets to 3 figures, it's never just another ton but a daddy hundred to remember. May it be her blistering 171 not out in the 2017 World Cup semi-final of the unbeaten 143 which she smashed on Wednesday.
