She is now world #1 in ODI rankings.— bramanandam (@tsknray) July 6, 2021I don’t seek validation from people: Mithali RajDuring her unbeaten 75 in the third ODI against England, Mithali Raj also became the leading run-scorer in women’s international cricket, going past Charlotte Edwards' tally of 10,273 runs.Although she was in good form, the 38-year-old faced some criticism over her strike rate. Reacting to the same, following India Women’s win in the final ODI, Mithali Raj said:“I do read that the criticism is about my strike rate, but as I have said earlier also, I don’t seek validation from people. I’ve played for a long time, and I know that I have a certain responsibility in the team. I don’t look to please people.”“I’m here to play the role that is assigned to me by the team management. When you’re chasing a target, you pick your bowlers, you pick your length, you pick the areas. Because I’m in a good flow, I need to make the best use of myself in the middle, and the entire batting unit revolves around me,” Mithali Raj added.During the ODI series, Mithali Raj also completed 22 years in international cricket, the longest by any woman cricketer. In overall international cricket (men’s and women’s), only Sachin Tendulkar has had a longer international career than Mithali Raj.
