Continuing his red-hot form, Smriti Mandhana played a fantastic knock against Australia and scripted history by achieving a huge milestone at the ICC Women’s World Cup 2025 match between India and Australia at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Sunday.
Smriti became the first-ever player in the history of women’s cricket to score 1,000 ODI runs in a single calendar year when she went past the 18-run mark against Australia.
The 29-year-old Mandhana achieved the historic milestone after she smashed spinner Sophie Molineux for a six towards long-on.
