The news of decorated and highly celebrated Indian cricketer Mithali Raj deciding to bring the curtain down on her international career wasn't really a very big surprise, but it was in many ways the end of an era.
In an international career dating back to 1999, Mithali played over 300 international matches across all three formats, scoring over 10,000 international runs. She also captained the Indian team for a long time. Mithali was and will always be one of the biggest poster girls of Indian cricket and a trailblazer.
