Former India captain Diana Edulji, who on Monday became the first Indian woman cricketer to be inducted into the ICC Hall of Fame, has termed the honour as a Diwali gift and a great recognition for Indian women’s cricket.
“It’s an absolutely great Diwali gift and a great honour to be the first Indian woman cricketer [in the hall of fame]. It’s not only an honour for me, but also for my family, friends, my fans, BCCI and Indian women’s cricket,” Edulji told mid-day on Monday. Former India opener Virender Sehwag and Sri Lanka’s 1996 World Cup-winning team member Aravinda de Silva were also made members of the ICC Hall of Fame.
