Jemimah Rodrigues said she looked up to Indian pacer Jhulan Goswami after the former retired from international cricket on Saturday.

“Dear Jhulu di, I know you must have gotten a million messages, but I just want you to know that I’ve always looked up to you (not just because you’re way taller than me) but in so many aspects. You always inspired me and led by example how to be a good senior,” Rodrigues said in a post on Twitter.
