When aggression is the new normal, Jasprit Bumrah chose to promote himself as a calm bowler. Jasprit Bumrah is popular not only for his bowling action but also for his calm celebration. What does Bumrah do? Some normal high fives, and sometimes some cazz moves right after taking the wicket. Asking about the calm celebration, the former Australian captain Michael Clarke naturally asked Boom, "You bowl 150 kmph and still be the nicest guy on the field. That is not ok."

And these actions are often loved countrywide, but fans find it difficult to digest when some other names do the same. However, Bumrah tagging these celebrations as a "clown" one, even while maintaining diplomacy by saying that each player has his own style, has caught eyes. Notably, Jasprit Bumrah has been denied captaincy of the Indian test team buckling up for the England series, due to injury concerns.
