All-rounder Ashleigh Gardner is the No. 2 batter in the Women’s ODI rankings for a reason. She batted at a remarkable strike rate of 130.15 across her five innings. Two of these were match-defining knocks against New Zealand (115 off 83) and England (104* off 73). Her 45-ball 63 against India in the semi-final was a vital contribution as well.

2) Smriti Mandhana (434 runs in nine innings)

Indian vice-captain Smriti Mandhana had an impressive campaign Despite not getting to the best of starts with only 54 runs coming in the first three matches combined, she did not lose hope. Instead, her scores in the subsequent three matches against Australia, England and New Zealand read 80, 88 and 109, respectively. Smriti fell five short of her third fifty in the final.

1) Laura Wolvaardt (571 runs in nine innings)

South African skipper Laura Wolvaardt was unfortunate to be on the other side of the result despite notching up a century. With two centuries in both knockout matches, she matched Alyssa Healy’s record attained back in 2022. Wolvaardt’s 169 off 143 in the semi-final against England was a special knock that will be etched in the memory of the fans.
