What was hitherto the Mysore Junction at Manathavady on Monday was renamed as Minnu Mani Junction.
It was early this month, Minnu made her debut in the three T-20 internationals against Bangladesh and took crucial wickets to help India win.
Tribal girl Mani, who hails from Wayanad, was picked up for Rs 3 million by Delhi Capitals for the first Women Premier League.
An all-rounder, Mani bowls right-handed and bats left-handed. Mani belongs to the Kurichiya tribe in Choyimoola in Wayanad and her father is a casual labourer, while her mother is a home maker.
