With this victory, the Indian team gave a memorable farewell to veteran bowler Jhulan Goswami. In the last match of his career, Jhulan Goswami could not do anything special with the bat and got out on the first ball. At the same time, when Jhulan came to the crease to bat, the English players gave him a guard of honor. At the same time, even after his dismissal, this view was seen on the field.
For over 20 years Jhulan Goswami has run in, hit a length and blazed a trail.
She has bowled nearly 10,000 balls in ODI cricket, and she may just have inspired as many young girls to try cricket.
