She has also played in three World Cups and captained the team in two of them. The team entered two finals and were also one-time semi-finalists. Due to these historical past performances, women’s cricket is being taken seriously today.  She was also indeed privileged to have been a part of the Indian women’s cricket team that won its ‘first ever Test Match’ playing Vs the West Indies in Patna. 

She was later appointed in the BCCI administration panel by the Supreme Court of India on 30^th January 2017.  During the period of her tenure, past women cricketers were also given a one-time benefit and pension, which was only given to men earlier.
