Nooshin Al Khadeer has been Mithali Raj’s best friend for close to 23 years now. And when Mithali announced her retirement, Nooshin was not really surprised.
“It is a mixed feeling for sure. But we have to respect her call,” Nooshin told The Hindu.
“I can only say Mithali has accomplished whatever an Indian woman cricketer could. Her contribution will always be remembered. She was, she is and will remain the face of women’s cricket,” said Nooshin, who said she played 78 ODIs and claimed 100 wickets, and five Tests either with Mithali or under her.“
