Smriti Mandhana has won the Rachael Heyhoe-Flint Trophy for being the ICC's Women's Cricketer of the Year 2021. She becomes only the second player, after Australia allrounder Ellyse Perry, to win the highest individual distinction in the women's overall category of the annual ICC awards more than once. 

 

Mandhana, who was named ICC Women's Cricketer of the Year and ODI Cricketer of the Year in 2018, pipped fellow opening batters Beaumont, Lizelle Lee of South Africa, and Gaby Lewis of Ireland to the honour.

 

Jhulan Goswami, who won the same award in 2007, is the only other Indian woman to ever win an ICC annual award.

yes, and one of the few adept at all 3 formats. I actually believe she could be a gun player in tests had she got more chances to play that format.
