After addressing the media post-match on Tuesday, Royal Challengers Bengaluru captain Smriti Mandhana was making her way to the players’ change room beside the Cooch Behar Room of the Brabourne Stadium premises when she stopped to acknowledge a girl in an RCB jersey.

The girl, so excited at seeing Mandhana, could not control her emotions and shed tears of joy just at seeing the No. 2 WODI and No. 3-ranked WT20I-ranked batter. Mandhana made the girl comfortable and put her arm around the fan. She posed for photos and had some comforting words for the youngster. And, before parting ways, Mandhana shook her hand and even presented her with a cricket ball.
