Indian women's team is enjoying a fantastic run at ongoing ICC Women's World Cup.
They defeated host England in the tournament opening match and followed it by winning the match against West Indies by seven wickets on Thursday.
20-year-old opener Smriti Mandhana has played a big part in both the wins. The left-hander, who has made a fine return from injury, followed up her 90-run knock against England with a smashing 106 off just 108 balls against the West Indies to set up the base for India's chase.
Mandhana looked to be enjoying the form of her life and so are the fans watching her perform. One such enthusiast compared her to former Indian opener Virender Sehwag and posted it tagging the swashbuckling batsman and Mandhana.

Virender Sehwag had a brilliant response,
She is the first version of Smriti and is really special. Every Indian who loves sports will be proud of her. Wish her and the team the best https://t.co/RrjavFVLc0

With 196 runs in just two games, the 20-year-old Mandhana has no intention of stopping and she has already warned that there is a lot more to come.
"I'm not satisfied at all, I haven't worked really hard for the last five months to get fit just for a 90 or a hundred. I want to do well for India and win the World Cup for India. That's what I've been craving for in the last five months," she had said.
