Smriti Mandhana won the World Cup earlier this month
Meanwhile, Smriti Mandhana will get married now as a World Cup winner, having lifted the trophy earlier this month on November 2, as India defeated South Africa in the final by 52 runs. The elegant left-hander had a memorable campaign, having amassed 434 runs in nine innings at an impeccable average of 54.22. She also scored a stunning century against New Zealand in the must-win clash which revived India's campaign following three consecutive losses.
She also got emotional while reacting to the World Cup win after the final and said, "I don't know how do I react to that. It is still sinking in. As you said, I haven't been emotional on a cricket field. But yeah, I mean, this is a very unreal moment. Home World Cup and yeah, I mean, to be the champion in India, I mean, I just can't. I'm still not able to process it," she had said.
Within a few weeks after the memorable World Cup win, Smriti Mandhana is set to start a new chapter in her personal life as she is reportedly getting married to Palash soon.
