Veteran off-spinner Sneh Rana grabbed her maiden five-for as Indian women beat South Africa by 15 runs to notch up their second successive win in the ODI tri-series on Tuesday (April 29). India had beaten hosts Sri Lanka by nine wickets in the opening game on Sunday.

Batting first, rising star Pratika Rawal's 78 and handy contributions from skipper Harmanpreet Kaur (41) and Jemimah Rodrigues (41) took India to a healthy 276 for 6 in 50 overs.
