CRICKET
Smriti Mandhana scored a fifty in just 23 balls against England Women's cricket team during the semifinal of Commonwealth Games 2022.
Smriti Mandhan has been in a rich vein of form of late, for the Indian Women's cricket team. Mandhana scored yet another fifty against England in the semifinal of the Commonwealth Games 2022. This was Mandhana's second fifty in CWG Birmingham games, having played a crucial knock against Pakistan as well.
The Indian opener required just 23 balls to complete her half-century and although she was later dismissed after scoring 61 runs, Mandhana had done her job and set up a good platform for the remaining batters to build upon.
The 26-year-old from Mumbai put up an excellent show and netizens hailed her on Twitter after she helped India get off to a blistering start.

Courtesy of Smriti's blazing fast fifty, India crossed the 60-run mark in just 6 overs of the powerplay. However, after her dismissal, Harmanpreet Kaur tried to accelerate the innings, but she was also dismissed after scoring 20 runs.
India were 127/3 after 16 overs, with the Indian eves suffering a slow collapse of sorts after Mandhana's dismissal.
