India’s star opener Smriti Mandhana has etched her name in cricketing history, becoming the first cricketer ever to score 11,000 runs in women’s internationals.
Mandhana achieved the milestone during the Asian Games final against Sri Lanka at the Korogi Sports Park, where she gave India a blistering start by smashing three sixes and three fours in the first four overs.
Her achievement surpasses the legendary Mithali Raj’s record of 10,868 runs, cementing Mandhana’s status as one of the greatest batters in women’s cricket.
The landmark innings not only powered India to a commanding total but also highlighted Mandhana’s consistency, dominance, and ability to deliver on the biggest stage.
This record is a defining moment for Indian women’s cricket, inspiring future generations and showcasing the team’s growing stature in global cricket.
