New Delhi. Under the captaincy of Smriti Mandhana, Royal Challengers Bangalore created Women’s Premier League history. RCB won its first title. Even the men’s team could not do this under the captaincy of Virat Kohli till date. After this achievement of Mandhana, Virat started being compared with Mandhana. Mandhana has said that it is not right to compare us.
Smriti Mandhana said, “The title has its place but number 18 has achieved a lot for India and that is a big thing.” So, I don’t think it would be right to make comparisons between us. Because where my career is right now. He (Virat Kohli) has already achieved that. I don’t like comparisons because of what he has achieved. she’s awesome. He has been an inspiration for many youth. The title doesn’t define many things. We all respect him and I think there should be the same respect for Virat in Indian cricket.”

Smriti further said, “There is nothing different for me. I don’t look at 18 and 18 in the same way. Jersey number is your personal choice and does not determine how you play the game.
