Smriti Mandhana achieved a historic milestone by becoming the second Indian woman and the fourth female cricketer worldwide to complete 10,000 runs in international cricket. She reached this landmark during the fourth T20I against Sri Lanka at Thiruvananthapuram. Her achievement reflects remarkable consistency across Test, ODI, and T20I formats. In the same match, she played a brilliant knock of 80 runs, helping India post their highest-ever women’s T20I total. This feat placed her alongside legends like Mithali Raj, Suzie Bates, and Charlotte Edwards, highlighting her status as one of the finest batters in modern women’s cricket.
