Smriti Mandhana is currently in her best batting form and wishes more than scoring a ton, i.e, lifting the World Cup. In the press conference, she said,”I didn’t work hard in the past months just to score 90 or a 100. I want to do well for India and win the World Cup for India.”
The Indian Women’s Cricket Team is currently one of the favourites in the ongoing world series. Apart from Smriti, skipper Mithali Raj has also showcased his batting skills in both the games. Though she missed his 7th consecutive 50 by 4 runs against West Indies but they she has been batting is commendable.
