Smriti Mandhana: Getting 110 runs, our bowlers and fielders were great…Lottie has been great as a head coach. She's been in touch with everyone throughout the last one month. When I came into the set-up, I already felt I knew all the girls#TheHundredpic.twitter.com/oYHi2XKRt8

#SmritiMandhana crediting the bowlers for the win is such a good thing. Not the first time she has done it, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. Turning into a very good leader Ms Mandhana. #TheHundred #CreditWhereItsDue #TeamBowler
