Ex-India captain Sunil Gavaskar, while doing commentary during the India-England T20 World Cup 2026 semi-final, said, "DJ systems are encouraging spectators to say 'Boom Boom Bumrah' in between deliveries." He added, "Not really sure it's a good thing for the game. Between overs, yes, but not between deliveries...This is a World Cup." Gavaskar earlier criticised the laser shows during matches.
