Women's T20 World Cup 2023: Ten players to watch out for
The T20 World Cup 2023 will get underway on February 10 in South Africa.
6. Smriti Mandhana
Smriti Mandhana is one of the finest opening batters going around in world cricket. The 26-year-old has featured in 77 ODIs and aggregated 3073 runs at an average of 43.28. Coming to the shortest format, she has scored 2565 runs in 107 games at a strike rate of 123.55.
Mandhana has put up an exhibition of her glorious stroke play in the Commonwealth Games 2022 and took bowling attacks to the cleaners. The southpaw plundered 159 runs in five games at a stunning strike rate of 151.42. Her batting exploits were instrumental in India clinching the silver medal.
However, the ace batter was not at her consistent best in the recently culminated T20I series against Australia. Barring her breathtaking half-century in the second game, Mandhana was not able to set the stage alight with her batting displays. The Mumbai-born would look to bring her A-game into play in the upcoming T20 extravaganza in South Africa.
