IPL | “ The noise is deafening ”: Jos Buttler compares the atmosphere of Wankhede to the concert of Taylor Swift | Cricket news

England’s ticketkeeper Jos Buttler compared the atmosphere of the emblematic Wankhede stadium to a Taylor Swift concert.Speaking for The Love of Cricket, his new podcast with Stuart Broad, Buttler said that playing outside games against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede stadium is difficult because the noise becomes so deafening.“In all the Indian stadiums, there is a master of ceremonies. So, each time I strike, he asks the crowd to sing” Jos the boss “. Imagine that a launcher flows and that the stadium sings” Jos Le Boss “,” he laughs.

Buttler shared the experience of playing Wankhede.“Wankhede is a really strong stadium.“With Bumrah Bowling and the whole stadium shouting” Boom Boom Boomrah “.

“There is a crescendo while he bowns. He goes up and in my mind I think, my God, it’s noisy, it becomes stronger, he gets closer.“You have to manage these moments – it’s like facing chaos and expectations. It’s high level cricket, where you try to manage everything that is happening around you.

“I went to a concert by Taylor Swift – when she ends her song and the noise is deafening. It is the only thing I can think of who is stronger than the IPL stadiums.”On the podcast, Buttleler has also praised his skipper of Gujarat Titans, Shubman Gill, who should lead India in the next series of five game tests.“He’s a truly impressive player and an impressive young man,” said Buttler.“It is quite calm and measured when he speaks, but it is interesting – I have the impression on the field that he has a little fight about him; a little intensity, quite passionate. I think he will be a mixture of Kohli and Rohit.”
