Two weeks before the Women’s Cricket World Cup 2025 begins, Smriti Mandhana has become the No. 1 ODI batter in the world. The Indian opener has been one of the best 50-over players since her debut. In 2025, Mandhana has scored 3 half-centuries and 2 hundreds in 12 matches.
The Indian vice-captain’s 58-run knock against Australia in New Chandigarh has seen her topple England captain Nat Sciver-Brunt as the number one-ranked batter in the ICC’s women’s ODI batting ranking.
Pratika Rawal, who was India’s top scorer against Australia, jumped four spots to 42nd. Harleen Doel, who also scored a fifty, rises five places to 43rd. Sneh Rana made massive gains as well, getting to 13th in the ICC women’s ODI bowling ranking.
