Smriti Mandhana becomes 3rd highest century getter in women’s ODIs

Colombo: Team India opener and left-hand batter Smriti Mandhana on Sunday became the third cricketer in Women’s Cricket history to slam the most number of tons in the One Day Internationals.

Mandhana achieved this milestone during the ODI tri-series final against Sri Lanka Women, which was played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

The southpaw smashed 116 runs off 101 balls, which was laced with 15 boundaries and two maximums in her innings. The 28-year-old player scored these runs at a strike rate of 114.85.

This was Mandhana’s 11th ODI ton, going past England’s Tammy Beaumont to become the third-highest century maker in ODIS.

Former Australia skipper Meg Lanning (15) and New Zealand right-hand batter Suzie Bates (13 so far) are the two players above Mandhana in the highest century-maker list. (ANI)
