When she was two, the family moved to [[Madhavnagar]], [[Sangli]] in [[Maharashtra]], where she completed her schooling. Both her father and brother, Shravan, played cricket at the district-level, for [[Sangli district|Sangli]].

At eleven, she was picked for the Maharashtra Under-19s team.<ref>{{cite news|last1=Kishore|first1=Shashank|title=The prodigious journey of Smriti Mandhana|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/women/content/story/984993.html|access-date=28 October 2016|work=ESPNcricinfo|date=18 March 2016}}</ref>
