Smriti Mandhana

Star India opener Smriti Mandhana on Tuesday strengthened her status as the No.1 batter in women's ODI cricket after achieving a career-best rating on the back of an outstanding home World Cup campaign.

The 29-year-old left-handed batter scored 109 against New Zealand and 34 not out against Bangladesh in her last two matches and moved to a rating of 828, almost 100 points clear of Australia's Ash Gardner in second (731), who jumped six spots after her unbeaten century against England.
