Kieron Pollard made a notable appearance at The Hundred Final on August 19, where he drew inspiration from Turkish shooter Yusuf Dikec's viral "gunpoint" celebration. Dikec became well-known for his precise shooting technique, which gained traction on social media after he won a silver medal at the Paris Olympics.
During the match against the Oval Invincibles, Pollard showcased this celebration after catching Donovan Ferreira, mimicking the act of aiming like a marksman. This playful tribute resonated with fans, especially as his teammate Akeal Hosein joined the fun by performing the same gesture after dismissing Sam Curran.
However, Pollard's personal performance was less memorable, as he fell for a four-ball duck, and unfortunately for the Southern Brave, they could not secure the win. The match concluded with the Brave losing by 17 runs, despite their efforts. Saqib Mahmood's standout bowling played a pivotal role in ensuring the Oval Invincibles emerged as the champions, making history as the first team to win The Hundred back-to-back.
