T20 World Cup 2022: Top 5 bowling celebrations to watch out for
Former pacers like Shoaib Akhtar, Brett Lee, and Dale Steyn among others brought the art of celebrating a dismissal into fashion and a lot of present-day cricketers tend to celebrate in style.
3. Sheldon Cottrell
The Caribbean cricketers are always in a mood to celebrate and Sheldon Cottrell is no different. Following each of his dismissals, the 33-year-old marches down the pitch and salutes the departing cricketer in order to pay his respect.
Being a soldier of the Jamaica Defense Force (JDF), he practised this move for six long months. He has also been part of deadly battles in the past and lost a lot of his colleagues because of that. Therefore, Cottrell performs it as a ritual after every dismissal.
Coming to his performance now, the speedster will play a massive part for the West Indies in the T20 World Cup. Bowling with the new ball, he’ll have the responsibility to pick early wickets and set the tone for the team. So far, he has played 42 T20Is for the Windies and picked up 50 wickets at an economy of 7.94.
