The southpaw needed 27 runs before the fourth T20I between India and Sri Lanka at the Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram. She needed just 20 deliveries to gather the remaining runs and complete the feat. Apart from the two Indians, Suzie Bates and Charlotte Edwards are the only cricketers to cross this mark. Agencies
