Smriti Mandhana has set a new benchmark in ODI cricket with her rapid century. She achieved this milestone against the Australian women’s team, reaching her century in just 50 deliveries. This performance not only makes her the fastest Indian to achieve this feat, surpassing Virat Kohli’s record, but also places her among the top women cricketers globally. Kohli had previously scored a century in 52 balls. Mandhana’s record-breaking innings is the second-fastest century in women’s ODIs. Her aggressive batting included 14 fours and 4 sixes, propelling her to 125 runs before her dismissal. This marks a significant moment for Indian women’s cricket and places her among the elite of ODI performers.
