Mandhana's standout performance came on September 3 against Hong Kong Women, when she scored 124 off 64 balls in Dubai. That innings is the highest individual score in Women's T20 Asia Cup history and the highest by an Indian women's batter in T20I cricket, surpassing her own previous best of 112 against England in 2025. India posted 193/5 in 20 overs in that match. During the innings, Mandhana went past former India women's skipper Mithali Raj to become the highest run-scorer in all of women's international cricket, now holding 10,880 runs across Tests, ODIs and T20Is, 12 more than Mithali's 10,868. The century was also her 18th in international cricket, the most by any women's batter, going past Meg Lanning and Laura Wolvaardt who have 17 tons each.
