217/4 vs West Indies, Navi Mumbai, 2024
As mentioned, India's 217/4 against West Indies is now their highest total in WT20Is.
Only on one other occasion have the Women in Blue gone past the 200-run mark in the format.
As per ESPNcricinfo, 217/4 is also the highest WT20I total in India. The previous-highest was 209/4 by Australia against England in the 2018 tri-nation series final.

India's only other 200-plus total in the format also came this year at the Women's Asia Cup.
They scored 201/5 against the United Arab Emirates (UAE), riding on a 29-ball 64* from Ghosh. Skipper Harmanpreet Kaur also hammered 66 off 47 balls.
UAE were later restricted to 123/7, with Deepti Sharma taking two wickets. Tanuja Kanwar conceded just 14 runs in four overs.
#3
198/4 vs England, Brabourne, 2018
In 2018, India racked up 198/4 from 20 overs against England in the tri-nation series in Brabourne.
The hosts were bolstered by a 129-run opening stand between Smriti Mandhana (76) and Mithali Raj (53).
However, Danni Wyatt-Hodge's incredible century made it a one-sided run-chase for England. They completed it in 18.4 overs and won by seven wickets.
