Lanning struck her 15th century to flatten the previously unbeaten South Africa who had posted a seemingly competitive 271/5 on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Lanning also set a record of 15 centuries in Women's ODIs (most ever in women's ODIs). Meg Lanning, in 97 innings, is the second-fastest to 15 hundreds in ODI cricket (men and women). The only player to score their first 15 ODI hundreds in fewer innings is Hashim Amla. Amla took 86 innings to reach the milestone of 15 ODI hundreds.
