Last match of Jhulan Goswami’s career
The Indian women’s team has come to play the last match of the three-match ODI series against England at Lord’s. This match is special for veteran fast bowler Jhulan Goswami, who has come to play the last international match of his career. In such a situation, the Indian team’s efforts are to give a memorable farewell to Jhulan Goswami by winning this match. However, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led Indian team has already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series.
A memento for an illustrious career

Captain Harmanpreet Kaur could not control her emotions and started crying. After this Jhulan consoles Harmanpreet. The video of this emotional moment is going viral on social media.
Thanks to BCCI-Bengal Cricket Association
“Thank you to BCCI and Cricket Association of Bengal, my family, coach, captain everyone,” Jhulan said before the match. Thank you for this opportunity, this is a special moment. I started my career against England in 2002 and am finishing against England. Most importantly we are leading the series 2-0. There are many emotions attached to each moment. In the 2017 World Cup we came back and gave a tough challenge, initially no one thought we would play the final, the way we played that tournament was different. From there, Indian women’s cricket slowly progressed and now we are on a great path. We can inspire young girls to play the game and pursue a career in cricket. Talking about the third ODI, England won the toss and invited the Indian team to bat first.
