On Sunday, Smriti Mandhana played a crucial knock, scoring a half-century after India were asked to bat first by Sri Lanka. During the first T20I, she created history by becoming the first Indian woman to score 4,000 runs in Women’s T20I cricket. Although she made 25 runs in that opening match of the five-game series, Mandhana also became only the second woman overall to reach the 4,000-run mark in T20Is, after New Zealand’s Suzie Bates.
