Indian women's team fast bowler Jhulan Goswami today announced her retirement from T20 Cricket Internationals. The veteran player played 68 T20 Internationals and took 56 wickets at an economy rate of 5.45. The 35-year-old will only play ODIs. In ODIs, she is the world's highest wicket-taker with 200 scalps from 169 games.

Of late, her lack of wickets in shortest version was coming under the scanner and her big-hitting abilities at the back end was also on the wane. A trigger would have been the underwhelming performance at the Asia Cup where India lost to Bangladesh twice, including in the final.

 Goswami thanked the BCCI and her teammates for all the love and support she garnered during her stint with the T20 Internationals team and wished them luck going forward.

Goswami along with Mithali Raj are the two oldest cricketers in the current set-up, having made her debut against England in Chennai way back in 2002.
