Mithali Raj led India to a 3-0 series victory over South Africa in the three-match One Day International (ODI) series on Monday. She also achieved a unique feat as she became the first women player to complete 20 years in international cricket. After India’s victory over South Africa in the 50-over format, another batting legend Sachin Tendulkar took to Twitter and congratulated the Indian team for the win and also acknowledged Mithali Raj’s achievement.

Mithali Raj also replied to Sachin Tendulkar’s tweet by calling him a champion.

“It feels nice to be acknowledged by a person who I have looked up to all my life .. thank you champion,” her tweet read.

However, a troller tried to trol her by questioning her language preference, saying: “She doesn’t know Tamil. She will speak in English, Telugu, Hindi”.

Mithali, however, gave a fitting reply to shut down the troller and replied with a tweet in Tamil saying it is her mother tongue and also added that she is a very proud Indian.

“But above it all I am very proud Indian! Also my dear Sugu, you constant criticism on each and every post of mine, you day to day advice on how and what should I do is exactly what keeps me going,” she tweeted.

In the three-match ODI series, Mithali Raj scored 88 runs which came at an impressive average of 44 to help India win the series by 3-0. She had announced her retirement from the shortest format of the game last month and said that she wanted to focus on the next 50-over World Cup now, which is scheduled to take place in 2021.
