India secured a comprehensive ten-wicket victory over South Africa in the one-off Women's Test in Chennai. Sneh Rana was instrumental, recording the third-best bowling figures ever in women's Tests at Chepauk with an eight-wicket haul in the first innings, leading to South Africa following on. Sune Luus and Laura Wolvaardt fought back with significant contributions, including Luus' maiden Test hundred and Wolvaardt's first Test fifty, taking the match into the final day. Despite their efforts, India maintained their dominance, with Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana powering India to a first-innings total of 603/6. Rana's performance ensured India's advantage never slipped, and she became the first Indian spinner to achieve a 10-wicket match haul in Women's Tests. South Africa were bowled out for 266 in the first innings and reached 232/2 following on, with Luus and Wolvaardt adding 190 runs for the second wicket. Rana's 8/77 in the first innings was pivotal. This win marks India's third consecutive Test victory.
