Legendary Indian pacer Jhulan Goswami took the field for the last time in international cricket on Saturday, at the iconic Lord’s cricket ground. The 39-year-old had announced her retirement from international cricket before the start of the 3-ODI series against England.

India won the first two ODIs earlier this week to win the series. Saturday’s game at Lord’s is the farewell match for the pioneer seamer in Indian women’s cricket and this grand occasion has made all around her emotional.

Harmanpreet Kaur got emotional and burst into tears on Jhulan Goswami’s farewell ODI

Before the start of play in the third ODI, the Indian team and management gathered for a huddle where Goswami’s career was celebrated. She was given a momentous plaque award by skipper Harmanpreet Kaur, who also broke into tears.

In a video of that huddle talk shared by broadcaster Sony Sports Network, Harmanpreet embraced Jhulan in a warm, long hug. Kaur hugged the pacer tightly and slowly shed into tears; a weeping Kaur could be seen wiping her tears as Goswami consoled her. Jhulan has been like an elder sister to all her teammates and a source of immense inspiration, and this was one such example where the skipper, usually in control of her emotions, let it all out this time.

Goswami brings down a glorious, iconic, and inspirational 20-year India career. Hailing from Bengal, Goswami will bow out as the highest wicket-taker in women’s internationals, with 353* wickets – 44 in Tests, 253* in ODIs (the highest in the world) and 56 in T20Is – across formats before the start of this Lord’s ODI vs England. The Bengal pacer has featured in six 50-over World Cups.

She made her India debut way back in 2002, and played a big part along with the former skipper and legendary batter Mithali Raj in revolutionising Indian women’s cricket, inspiring girls from all parts of the country to take up cricket.
