As India waits for the World Cup to return home, the ICC championship has seen its share of incredible moments, ranging from major upsets to inspiring fan acts through the mega-tournament held in India.
As the men in blue faced challenges during the World Cup final against Australia, Indian fans took to Twitter and other social media platforms to share their funny and honest reactions. The social media sphere was inundated with memes, providing a humorous distraction from Team India’s lackluster batting performance, despite their outstanding bowling.
