It seems that No. 18 is the new lucky number for Indian cricket. The reason: it is the jersey number of both Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli and Indian women’s cricket team star player Smriti Mandhana. Virat Kohli and Smriti Mandhana have impressed all with their significant performance for Indian cricket team in South Africa.(Facebook) And as luck would have it, both cricketers slammed a hundred each while wearing the jersey of the same number to lead their respective teams to victories in South Africa on Wednesday. READ | Kohli conjured a masterclass in the third ODI at Cape Town, scoring runs with ease on a pitch where other batsmen struggled. Eschewing his signature aggression, he concentrated on running hard between the wickets to compile his 34th ODI ton. During his unbeaten 159-ball 160, he scored 100 runs by running underlining his supreme fitness. Riding on his sublime innings, India posted a mammoth 303/6. The pressure of chasing a 300 plus target took a toll on South African batting as they were bundled out for a paltry 178 to give Kohli and Co a thumping 124-run victory and an unassailable 3-0 lead in the six-match series.

NEW DELHI: Smriti Mandhana is leading Royal Challengers Bangalore in the inaugural season of the Women's Premier League. She became the most expensive player after Mandhana is now being compared with Mandhana said she doesn't believe in comparisons but would like to emulate what Kohli has achieved for the franchise. "I don't like the kind of comparison because what he (Kohli) has achieved is amazing. I just hope that I reach that level, but I'm nowhere near. What he has achieved for this franchise (RCB), I would like to try and do that," Mandhana told reporters. Interestingly, both Kohli and Mandhana have the same jersey number (18) for RCB and Team India. And Mandhana was officially unveiled as the captain of the franchise by Kohli.

It was double delight for India as it swept the Wisden Cricketers' Almanack Wednesday with Virat Kohli and Smriti Mandhana clinching the 'Leading Cricketer of Year' honours, continuing their award-winning spree.

The Indian talisman was picked as one of the five Wisden Cricketers of the year, along with England's Tammy Beaumont, Jos Buttler, Sam Curran and Rory Burns. The India skipper is only the third cricketer ever to have won the award more than three times after Don Bradman (10 times) and Jack Hobbs (8 times). Kohli had notched up 593 runs in five Tests at an average of 59.3 during India's 1-4 loss to England and ended the year with five hundreds to his name. Mandhana was rewarded for scoring 669 and 662 runs in ODIs and T20Is last year. She also amassed 421 runs at an astounding strike rate of 174.68 in the women's Super League.
