When you think of the Indian and Pakistan cricket team and their camaraderie, most often we think of the men’s cricket team. This bond of friendship between the players of both the teams can be perfectly summed up when you watch the video of Yuvraj Singh, Virat Kohli and Shoaib Malik sharing a laugh after India’s crushing loss to Pakistan.
It seems the women’s team is no different. When Pakistan’s pacer Kainat Imtiaz shared an Instagram feed on how she was inspired by India’s Jhulan Goswami, it helped bring the women’s cricket team into the lime light. Kainat met her inspiration Jhulan during India’s match against Pakistan in the recent World Cup and shared a heart-warming story of how the cricketer inspired her.
With a picture of her and her inspiration, Kainat put up this caption; "Let me share a story with you all. In 2005 i saw the Indian team for the 1st time as the Asia cup was held in Pakistan. I was the ball picker during the tornament... I saw @jhulangoswami. The fastest bowler of that time. I was so impressed that i chose cricket as a career. Specificly fast bowling. It’s a proud moment for me as after 12 years today in 2017 i am playing this ODI World Cup with one of my inspirations and getting more inspired........" (sic)
The inspiration and protégé look great together.
