So finally, the day has arrived for the Indian great Jhulan Goswami to hang her boots in international cricket. She is playing in the last match of her career in the third and last of the three-match ODI series against England Women. Notably, Indian girls have already sealed the series to give a winning farewell to the 39-year-old.

Jhulan was felicitated before her last appearance in international cricket. It happened to be a very emotional moment for the Indian girls. Emotions were running so high that skipper Harmanpreet Kaur broke down into tears as her senior colleague was going to appear for one last time in international cricket for India.
The video of this moment has gone viral over the social media platform Twitter just within minutes of being shared by a user.
Here’s the video:

The Bengal-born veteran pacer made her first appearance in international cricket for India 20 years back in the year 2002 when she was only 19. Since then, Jhulan has played 12 Tests, 203 ODIs, and 68 T20Is respectively. In the matches, she has scalped 44 Test wickets, 253 ODI wickets, and 56 T20I wickets respectively.
Her illustrious career of two decades is studded with a lot of achievements including the runners-up medal in the 2005 and 2017 World Cups respectively.
Speaking of the third match between India-W and England-W, then English skipper Amy Jones won the toss and asked the Indian team to bat first at the Lord’s stadium. Batting first, the Indian team is looking in trouble as they have lost four wickets only on the score of 10 overs only on the score of 32 runs.
Star opener Smriti Mandhana is there in the middle with 18 runs off 35 balls with three boundaries to her name alongside number six batter Deepti Sharma. Kate Cross is bowling brilliantly and has scalped three wickets so far in five overs by conceding only 11 runs.
