Derby, June 24 (IBNS): India posted a total of 281/3 in 50 overs against England in their opening match of the ICC Women's World Cup on Saturday.

Both the openers scored half centuries. While Punam Raut scored 86, Smriti Mandhana was the top scorer for India with 90.

Mithali Raj too played well till the end with her 71 from 73, partnering Harmanpreet Kaur who remained unbeaten at 24.
