Pakistan cricket fans had plenty of memes up their sleeves to bid farewell to arch-rivals India crashing out of the Asia Cup early on. Memers from India returned the favour with equal enthusiasm after Babar Azam’s men were humbled by a dominant Sri Lanka on Sunday night in Dubai where Pakistan lost by 23 runs while chasing Lanka’s 171. Once struggling at 58/5, Sri Lankan Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s crucial 71-run* knock instilled life in their camp and how.
Pakistan batters failed to match up the intensity of the match and were bundled out for 147 in the tricky 171-run chase.

Mohammad Rizwan was the leading run-getter for Pakistan as he scored 55 runs but he took many balls (49) which put pressure on the others.
It was “revenge” time for cricket fans in India who responded to Pakistan’s loss in Asia Cup final with memes and mockery.

Just remember. Today if you can’t support Rizwan’s 49-ball 55. Tomorrow you have no right to celebrate his 49-ball 57.
