Who is Mithali Raj..?
Mithali Raj, who passed 3,000 ODI runs during the Asia Cup last year, has established herself as one of the leading performers in world cricket.
Mithali Raj's third consecutive half-century gave India an unassailable 3-1 lead in the five-match series against England in Visakhapatnam. She scored 84 in an attractive stroke-filled innings to give India a convincing five-wicket win.

Who is Jhulan Goswami..?
Jhulan Goswami, the ICC Women's Player of the Year in 2007, is one of the most fearsome fast bowlers in the world and will hoping to build upon her growing reputation for delivering match-winning spells, especially now she has the added responsibility of being captain.
Goswami's strength lies in the fact that she generates movement off the pitch when she lands the ball on the seam and is now the fastest female bowler in the world, bowling at 120kph.

Mithali Raj is amazing, finally the Women are getting some coverage. Thank you for being apart of that...
ReplyDeleteHope to see more local (NYC/NJ) young women getting involved in the sport. As I write, a dear friend of mine is trying out for a team out on Long Island.
Teams are popping up everywhere, lets hope they all play each other and the scene grows.
