- On September 20, 2025, in Delhi, Smriti Mandhana became the fastest Indian to reach an ODI century by scoring 100 runs off just 50 balls while chasing Australia’s total in the third match of the series.

- Mandhana's innings included 17 fours and 5 sixes, totaled 125 runs off 63 balls, and formed a 121-run partnership with Harmanpreet Kaur during a huge run chase of 413 set by Australia.
- Australia posted their highest-ever innings total against India with 412 runs, powered by Beth Mooney's 138 off 79 balls, while Meg Lanning praised Mandhana saying she "has a lot of good cricket ahead of her."
- Mandhana's century made her the joint second most century-maker in women's ODIs with 13 hundreds, surpassing Virat Kohli's fastest century record from 2013 and enhancing India's confidence ahead of upcoming matches.
