Description

Welcome to Episode 151 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. Jhulan Goswami is an unbelievable beast. In a career spanning 20 years and 261 days, the second-longest of any woman to have played international cricket she scalped 355 wickets in 284 matches across the three formats. The only woman cricketer with 200-plus wickets in ODIs, she took 255 in the format, 64 more than the second-best on the chart. When Jhulan Goswami started playing the game, women’s cricket in India was sleepwalking at night, mired in indifference. Two decades down the line, when India and England's cricketers lined up to form a guard of honour in her final game at Lord’s, the picture looked rosy. On the podcast, we had Suvam join us for a fruitful discussion looking back and reliving Jhulu di's career. The podcast is also available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, Anchor and a lot of other platforms and spread the word.
