“I had no intentions of making it viral or spreading it everywhere,” mentioned Participant-of-the-Fit Bumrah then Bharat’s seven-wicket victory over Pakistan on the Narendra Modi Stadium.
“It just came to my mind. I’d seen Rashford do it as well. I thought it was cool. There’s no particular big back story behind it. At the end, I decided to do it,” the right-arm pacer added.
“Usually I’m too tired to celebrate. But that is one occasion where I did celebrate.”
Bharat, who’ve received the Global Cup two times in 1983 and 2011, will later tackle Bangladesh in Pune on October 19.
“We’re not thinking about the momentum. The team is right now thinking about recovery,” Bumrah said. “We’ve performed 3 video games back-to-back and the outcome has been at the excellent aspect as a result of our preparation has been excellent.”
