India’s legendary fast bowler Jhulan Goswami has taken on a new role as a mentor for the Trinbago Knight Riders (TKR) in the lead-up to the Women’s Caribbean Premier League (WCPL).
“It’s an honour to join such a quality franchise,” Goswami, who hails from Kolkata, said — as quoted by PTI.
Goswami, who retired from international cricket in 2022, had an impressive career that lasted two decades, during which she claimed 355 wickets across all formats for India.
“Knight Riders have done so well in India and around the world, and to join TKR Women at the WCPL is a pleasure. Thanks to KKR management for thinking about me as a mentor and I’m really looking forward to this tournament.”
In her new position, she will provide guidance to the TKR Women’s team, which is captained by the talented all-rounder Deandra Dottin. Under Dottin’s leadership, TKR Women emerged victorious in the inaugural season of the WCPL in 2021, securing the championship title.
