Smriti Mandhana is an Indian cricketer and one of the leading batters in women’s cricket, known for her elegant stroke play and match-winning performances. She has been a key player for India across formats, winning ICC awards, leading run charts, and inspiring young cricketers worldwide.

Smriti Mandhana, born on July 18, 1996, in Mumbai, Maharashtra, to Shrinivas and Smita Mandhana in a Marwari Hindu family, relocated to Madhavnagar, Sangli, at age two, where she drew inspiration from her elder brother Shravan—a fellow cricketer who later became a bank manager—to pursue the sport, making her domestic debut for Maharashtra's Under-15 team at just nine years old and the Under-19 side by 11, before exploding onto the scene with a stunning 155 on senior debut against Saurashtra in 2013 and an unbeaten 224 off 150 balls in an Under-19 tournament versus Gujarat later that year using a bat gifted by Rahul Dravid.
