Known for her exceptional bowling skills, particularly her pace and consistency, Goswami is considered one of the greatest female fast bowlers in history. She became the highest wicket-taker in Women\u2019s One Day Internationals (ODIs) in 2018, a title she held for several years. Her remarkable journey has inspired young cricketers, especially women, to take up the sport professionally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Significance_of_the_Honour\"><\/span><strong>The Significance of the Honour<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This gesture by the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) is a testament to the increasing recognition of women\u2019s cricket in India.
