Renuka Singh’s four wickets, Rajeshwari Gayakwad’s two-wicket haul and an all-round effort from Women in Blue helped India give Jhulan Goswami a series-winning farewell as they bundled out hosts for 153 in the third ODI against England at Lord’s ground on Saturday.
The highlight of the match was when Jhulan Goswami received a guard of honour from the players as she walked out to bat final time in international cricket. Jhulan bagged two wickets in her last outing, finishing with figures of 2/30 from 10 overs. She ended her career on 355 international wickets.
Twitterati were all praise for Jhulan Goswami following the game. Here’s how they reacted:

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.
Thanks @JhulanG10, you’re an inspiration. pic.twitter.com/EMeCtAA5Wa
