No fast bowler - men or women - in the last 70 years has had a career as long as #JhulanGoswami. It's no mean feat and she knows it too. When @a_upendran11 asked about her body during #CWC22, her candid response was "Ananya, only you can understand me."

Early on, she never hesitated to reach out to overseas pacers, nor did she think twice about passing on that knowledge to youngsters as she became their "Jhulu di". One just has to listen to Shabnim Ismail on how much she "loves and looks up to her."

And it's not just about the players. There was a sense of welcoming toward everyone. Even the toughest questions in press conferences were met with calmness and clarity. When you hear her speak, you feel reassured.

Picturesque as ever at the Basin Reserve this morning for an absolutely huge Australia vs New Zealand #CWC22 World Cup game. Great start from NZ too with big hitter Healy gone for 15. Let’s go! 
Lots of encouragement for Satterthwaite making a sharp stop at gully. Lea Tahuhu was *not happy* with Satterthwaite for allowing a boundary off her bowling earlier. Tahuhu is bowling beautifully here though, brilliant spell. Australia in a spot of bother, 3 down after 18 overs.
And a Jess Kerr midfield allows a boundary off her sister Melie’s bowling. Australia have done really well to rebuild here. NZ need a wicket now otherwise we could be looking at a tricky chase. Wicket looks pretty good though.
I’ll be posting notes on a few bowlers for each team in the #CWC22. Starting with NZ’s new ball pair, Lea Tahuhu and Jess Kerr. As noted by @nassercricket on air, Tahahu is more round arm whereas Kerr is almost beyond perpendicular. #NZvWI
South Africa’s Marizanne Kapp and Shabnim Ismail.
Australia’s Ellyse Perry and Darcie Brown
