Mandhana received the Best International Cricketer (Women) award for the fifth time in her career. Mandhana also received the award for smashing the highest runs for India.

Mandhana earned her first senior international cap in 2013, in a T20I against Bangladesh. Her ODI debut followed five days later. She made her Test debut in 2014, against England in Wormsley, and scored a maiden fifty in the game.

She was the Player of the Tournament in the 2025 World Cup for her 22 wickets and 215 runs, which helped India secure the trophy.
