Harmanpreet Kaur becomes most capped player in WT20Is

Milestone

Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur has become the most capped player in the history of Women's T20Is. The star batter attained the feat in the third T20I against Australia at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai.

Record

Harmanpreet, who played her 140th WT20I as captain, went past New Zealand's Suzie Bates. The latter has featured in 139 WT20Is so far. Danni Wyatt (136), Alyssa Healy (135), and Ellyse Perry (129) follow Bates on the tally.

Pinnacle

Harmanpreet is now the most experienced player in WT20Is. Overall (men or women), she is just behind Indian captain Rohit Sharma, who has featured in 148 T20Is.

Captaincy

Earlier this month, Harmanpreet recorded her 50th win as captain in WT20Is. She now has the second-most WT20I wins while leading in WT20Is after Australia's Meg Lanning and former England cricketer Charlotte Edwards. The duo shares the record (68).

Match

Batting first, the Aussie women posted a challenging score of 172/8 in 20 overs. Ellyse Perry stood tall, scoring a fantabulous 47-ball 75. In response, India (151/7) were going along well but lost momentum at a crucial juncture.
