Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu is all set to play India women's cricket team skipper Mithali Raj on the big screen in her biopic ‘Shabaash Mitthu’.
India women's ODI skipper Mithali Raj on Tuesday went past 20,000 runs in her cricketing career. She brought up the feat in the first ODI of the three-match series against Australia at the Harrup Park in Mackay.
The Indian skipper played a knock of 61 runs from 107 balls, helping the visitor post 225/8 in the allotted fifty overs. Also, it was Mithali’s fifth successive ODI half-century dating back to home series against South Africa last year. In the process, she also scored his 59th fifty in this format apart from six centuries in 218 matches.
Interestingly, Mithali is already the highest scorer in women's international cricket across the three formats of the game, achieving the feat during the tour of England earlier this year.
