Twitter erupts as Smriti Mandhana smashes record 135 in 2nd ODI against South Africa

Smriti Mandhana is India’s new cricketing Sensation as she helped Indian women’s team to reach the finals in ICC World Cup last year and even now she is scoring consistently in the 3 match ODI series against South Africa in Kimberley.

Mandhana, who made 84 in the first ODI on Monday, smashed her highest individual score (135) in the 2nd ODI on Wednesday.

After put in to bat, left-handed Mandhana hit fourteen boundaries and a six in her 129-ball innings and shared a 134- run stand with Harmanpreet Kaur (55*) to help India post 302 for three in their allotted 50 overs.

Smriti Mandhana, Harmanpreet Kaur and Veda Krishnamurthy are putting on a show against South Africa. What does the BCCI give us by way of coverage? Zip. If this was India men playing Timbuctoo, we'd have had hype and wall to wall coverage and.. oh well.

Well, it must have been magnificent, but @BCCI (@BCCIWomen) never bothered to telecast.

A third ODI – and career ton – for #SmritiMandhana, off 116 deliveries.
She now has a 100 each in Australia, England and South Africa.#SAWvINDW pic.twitter.com/qxWMgos4dM

Smriti Mandhana sure likes some pace on the ball, a big ton to back up a quality fifty. Time off the game seem to have done her wonders after a rather shoddy WC. #INDWvSAW
