The captain of the Indian women’s cricket team, Mithali Raj, is known for many things: her remarkable game, her sportsmanship, and her sincerity. But the internet (and the nation) loves it when she knocks more than just cricket balls out of the park.
Needless to say, she doesn’t take it lying down when it comes to dealing with trolls or sexists.
Remember the time she shut up a journalist who asked her a sexist question?
Well guess what, she is at it again, and how.
Recently, Mithali took to Twitter to share a picture of her at a promotional event recently.
What a momentous day today was, standing with these special women!!@MabenMaben @AlNooshin @vedakmurthy08 pic.twitter.com/EsNwRN2G7N
