Mandhana Breaks Multiple Records With Her 124

This innings is significant not just because of the record score in T20Is. Mandhana's 18th century in international cricket means she now has more centuries than any other player in women's cricket, with 14 centuries in ODIs, 2 in Test matches and 2 in T20Is. She also set a new high-score record in the Women's T20 Asia Cup, bettering the previous best of 119 by Chamari Athapaththu, who had scored an unbeaten 119 for Sri Lanka against Malaysia in 2024. With this innings, Mandhana became the first Indian player to score two T20I centuries, her previous T20I hundred being an unbeaten 112 against England in 2025.

Strong Performance by India Against Hong Kong

Through this innings, Mandhana helped India post their second-highest total ever in the Women's T20 Asia Cup — 193/5 — and India went on to win the match by 138 runs. Mandhana's seven sixes took her total of T20I sixes to 95, making her the leading six-hitter in T20Is for India, ahead of Harmanpreet Kaur.
