Jhulan Goswami had after all broken new ground for women’s cricket,
once again.
The world’s most successful female wicket-taker in international cricket, across formats, was no stranger to setting new benchmarks for her sport before she took the field in Galle.
With her two-wicket haul in the first ODI against Sri Lanka, the 35-year-old pacer set another one, this time becoming the first to take 300 wickets, and further accentuate her longstanding coach’s claim that Jhulan is indeed Jhulan, a cut above everyone else.
To put it in context, the next best is former Australian pacer Cathryn Fitzpatrick, who finished with 240 wickets overall across Tests and ODIs.
