Smriti Mandhana broke another record as India’s ICC World Cup 2025 match against Bangladesh at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai was washed out on Sunday.

Smriti hit her 150th boundary in 2025, as he already leads the charts for most boundaries hit in the year.

Smriti Mandhana stayed unbeaten 34 from 27, with six fours.

What Happened In IND vs BAN?

India and Bangladesh shared points after their Women’s World Cup match was abandoned due to rain on Sunday.

India was chasing a revised target of 126 in a 27-over-a-side game and had reached 57 without loss in 8.4 overs when another spell of rain led to the umpires calling off the match.

Earlier, Indian bowlers had restricted Bangladesh to 119 for 9 in the rain-affected game.

Sharmin Akhter was the top scorer for Bangladesh with 36 runs.

The left-arm spin pair of Sree Charani and Radha Yadav were the standout Indian bowlers, taking two and three wickets respectively.

What Records Did Smriti Break?

The star opening batter’s sublime knock of 109 off just 95 deliveries against New Zealand in the previous match etched her name in women’s cricket history. With this century — her 14th in One-Day Internationals — Mandhana surpassed New Zealand stalwart Suzie Bates (13) to move into second place on the all-time list of most hundreds in women’s ODIs. She now trails only Australia’s iconic Meg Lanning, who holds 15. The milestone underscored her remarkable consistency and her pivotal role as the backbone of India’s batting order.
This hundred also placed her alongside skipper Harmanpreet Kaur as the joint holder of the record for most centuries by an Indian in Women’s World Cups, both now boasting three apiece. The achievement further strengthens her stature among India’s modern greats, placing her in elite company with the legendary Mithali Raj, who has two World Cup centuries to her name.
Mandhana currently holds the record for the most sixes struck by a women’s cricketer in 2025 — an astonishing 29 and counting.
