New Delhi: Indian women’s cricket team opener Smriti Mandhana created history by becoming the first Indian woman to score a century in a pink-ball Test.
Indian women’s cricket team opener Mandhana played a 127-run knock against Australia in the one-off Pink Ball Test making her the Indian woman to score a century on Australian soil.
With this Test ton, Mandhana now has the highest individual score for India Women in Australia in all three formats.
Smriti’s knock soon started trending on social media and Harleen Deol came out to dedicated the classical chartbuster ‘O Haseena Zulfonwali Jaane Jahan’ from 1966 blockbuster Teesri Manzil to the batter.
