Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is well known for his iconic celebration where he points to his temple with his eyes closed. India’s ace speedster Jasprit Bumrah pulled off a similar celebration after scalping Ibrahim Zadran’s wicket in the IND vs AFG World Cup clash.
Marcus Rashford stole the limelight last season when he constantly brought out this particular celebration after scoring goals. Following this numerous sports personalities too replicated the same. But from the Indian Cricket Team, Jasprit Bumrah was the first player ever to bring out this celebration.

Marcus Rashford Celebration
After a bad slum on his performances, Rashford roared back to form last season. He brought out this celebration which points out at mental health. It is understood that Rashford has made his mental health a priority and therefore such a celebration.
But it is unlikely the same for Bumrah. For the Indian pacer, it can be understood that the dynamics are quite different. An unplayable delivery from Bumrah scalped the Afghani opener. So for Bumrah, it was a premediate delivery that provided the wicket and thus such a celebration.

It was a stunning delivery that dismissed Ibrahim Zardan. A short-of-a-length ball that drifts away from the batter. Zardan initially in two minds goes for the defense and then cuts the ball at the last minute. A thick outside edge from the bat sees the ball flying away. KL Rahul then attempts a majestic diving effort to take a spectacular catch as Bumrah brings out the Marcus Rashford celebration.
