Stuart Broad: 'People walk past me copying Ashes wicket celebration'

England bowler Stuart Broad admits that he finds it "a bit strange" to see people copying his wicket celebration in the street and on social media.

Stuart Broad has said that he has found it "a bit strange" to have people copying his Ashes wicket celebration as they walk past him in the street.

The England bowler clasped his hands to his face in disbelief after taking one of his eight wickets in the first innings at Trent Bridge, resulting in fans and other sportspeople copying the action.

The 29-year-old told The Guardian: "People have been walking past me in the street doing that face. I makes me a bit self-conscious, 'What have I got on my face?', but it's been good fun, I've quite enjoyed it.

"I certainly didn't think about doing it or plan it. It was just genuine amazement at the skill [Ben Stokes] showed. I saw Theo Walcott doing it, I've got a Twitter video from Lancs Under-12s all doing it. It's a bit strange."

Broad's wicket haul in the fourth Test moved him up to fourth on England's all-time wicket-takers list.
