Mithali becomes 1st Indian and 2nd International female cricketer to complete 10,000 runs

JNS: Mithali Raj (38), who leads the Indian ODI team, became the first Indian woman cricketer and second internationally to complete 10,000 runs across all formats.

BCCI tweeted that, “What a champion cricketer! First Indian woman batter to score 10K international runs. Take a bow, @M_Raj03.”

In the 28 innings in India’s innings, Mithali Raj accomplished the feat of Anne Bosch in the third ODI against South Africa. But after reaching the milestone, Mitahli departed in the next ball, flicking a Bosch delivery straight to Mignon du Preez at midwicket. She made 36 runs off 50 balls and hit five boundaries in the process.
