Xtra Time Web Desk : India Women's cricket team wicket-keeper-batter Richa Ghosh on Tuesday put her name into the record books as she smashed the fastest ever ODI half century in women's cricket off just 26 balls against New Zealand in the 4th ODI.

In doing so, Richa surpassed another fellow Indian in Veda Krishnamurthy who previously held this unique record as she scored her record 50 off just 32 balls.

Although Ghosh scored a blistering half century, but her efforts went into vain as India lost the 4th ODI to New Zealand by a margin of 63 runs.
