New Delhi, Feb 12 (UNI) Despite 3-0 defeat at the hands of New Zealand, Indian opening pair of Smriti Mandhana and Jemimah Rodrigues on Tuesday jumped four places to be the sixth and second best bats-woman in ICC Women’s T20I Player Rankings.
Rodrigues’s 132 runs in the three-match series against New Zealand have lifted her four places to second position while Smriti Mandhana, who grabbed the top spot in ODIs last week, has gained four spots to reach sixth position after finishing as the leading run-getter in the series with an aggregate of 180.
The stylish left-hander had smashed two half-centuries, including a fluent 86 in the last match in Hamilton that India lost by two runs.
