ENG vs WI | Twitter reacts to Sinclair’s circus-style juggling celebration as Pope offers catching practice
The ultimate aim of a sportsperson is to amuse the audience with stunning performances. Kevin Sinclair may not have been able to do so with the ball on the third day of the second Test between West Indies and England but he managed to entertain the crowd with a unique celebration after a catch.
England’s No.3 reached the half-century mark with a single by clipping a fuller ball towards square leg in the 24th over before the umpire changed the duke as it failed to pass through the rim. Right after, Alzarri Joseph came over the wicket and dished a good length delivery at the sixth stump that angled into the right-hander. Pope was drawn into the line for a front-foot drive and incurred an outside edge flying towards gully. Sinclair, stationed there, pouched the ball to his right with a quick reflex to end the 119-run stand. The spinner was seen sprinting around the park in jubilation and engaged in a unique celebration by juggling the ball and facing the crowd with a grin.
As the West Indies are renowned for their unique celebrations on the cricket field, Sinclair’s exuberance stirred the Twitterverse.

Its awesome
He was awesome to watch- I loved watching the West Indies win there because they were a fun team to watch. Kevin Sinclair backflip after his first test wicket, Shamar Joseph 7 wickets with a broken foot. Incredible

Better average
Kevin Sinclair has a better FC average than most of the side. I definitely see him becoming a batting Allrounder in the future if he isn't already
