How has Smriti Mandhana fared for Team India at the 2025 Women's World Cup so far?

Smriti Mandhana displayed brilliant form in the lead-up to the 2025 World Cup. However, the star India batter has had an average tournament so far. In four games, she has scored 134 runs at an average of 33.50 with one half-century.

Her lone fifty came against Australia, albeit in a losing cause. She scored 80 runs off just 66 balls with nine boundaries and three maximums at a strike-rate of 121.21. In the game against England, they will need Smriti Mandhana to fire at the top.

The hosts will then play New Zealand and Bangladesh. In the three remaining games, Smriti will have to be at her very best if they are to qualify for the semi-final.

Overall, the left-hander has piled on 5022 runs from 112 ODIs at an average of 47.37 with 13 hundreds and 33 half-centuries.
