England v India - ICC Women's World Cup 2017
Mithali Raj is one of the greatest that there will be

Captain of the Indian Women’s Cricket team, Mithali Raj is widely considered as the best batter of all time. With over 8000 International runs and still counting, Mithali is a batting genius from India. Right from her debut in 1999, where she scored an outstanding century, Mithali hasn't left any chance of impressing one and all with her batting heroics.

In only her third Test, at the age of 19, Mithali broke the then world record by scoring 214 runs against England. She has become the face of Indian Women’s Cricket in the country in the past few years. Mithali led the team to World Cup Final in 2005 and played a key role in the Team reaching the Finals again in 2017. She received the prestigious Arjuna Award in 2003.
