Australia's top-ranked international women's cricket team have set themselves a new target as a 300-run one-day side.
After a solid six-wicket win to claim a series victory against India at Bellerive Oval on Friday, opener Nicole Bolton said her teammates were striving for more lofty goals.
"We're always looking to get better and I think we're getting close to being a 300-team," she told reporters after the match.
The 27-year-old West Australian contributed a valuable 77 runs on Friday, helping the Southern Stars to 4-253 with more than three overs to spare in reply to the visitors' 8-252.
"It's good to get back to playing some 50-over cricket ... and really happy that I could finally contribute to the team," she said.
After Tuesday's 101-run win in Canberra, Australia have an unassailable two-nil lead in the three-match series.
It was a turnaround from the preceding T20 tournament in which the tourists were successful, 2-1.
"It's just time," Bolton said of the shift in format.
"Fifty overs, you've got a lot more time than what you think, and a lot of the girls (are) taking some of their form from the T20 format into the 50-over format with the opportunity to bat for longer."
Bolton paired with skipper Meg Lanning who scored 61 in a 138-run partnership on Friday, setting a good base.
Lanning was first to go, caught behind from a ball she thought she didn't edge.
Bolton top-scored for Australia, reaching her half-century from 49 balls and belting 10 boundaries before being trapped lbw by Shikha Pandey (2-50).
India earlier won the toss and chose to bat first.
Nursing a shoulder complaint, 19-year-old opener Smriti Mandhana (102) made her maiden ODI century in a classy performance.
After missing the Manuka fixture due to injury, it was a convincing comeback, but the talented teenager was harsh in self-assessment.
"I threw my wicket after getting (a) century and, when I got out, 10 overs (remained) so I could have accelerated and we could have got 275 and that would have been a good score," she said.
"I take that responsibility."
Perry with 3-54 was the pick of Australia's bowlers and Megan Schutt chipped in with 2-35.
The third and final fixture is on Sunday, again in Hobart.
