India added yet another win to their streak in the ongoing ICC Men's T20 World Cup by securing a victory against Afghanistan at the Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados. Defeating their opponents by 47 runs, India maintained their unbeaten record in the tournament. They set a strong target with a score of 181, thanks to aggressive batting, especially by Suryakumar Yadav, who contributed significantly to the team's total of 181 for 7.
While Jasprit Bumrah and Arshdeep Singh performed well in the match with each taking three wickets, Bumrah's standout performance included taking 3 wickets for just 7 runs in 4 overs. While Afghanistan faced difficulties early on, losing three wickets during the powerplay, their batting lineup continued to struggle after the 10th over, marking India's first Super Eight game win in the T20 World Cup 2024.
Brands quickly jumped on the bandwagon, creating memes to try and connect with their audiences. While Zomato humorously joked about, 'India's win being sweeter than Afghan Jalebi's', Bewakoof praised the Indian cricket team stating, 'As long as we have Bumrah on our side, we don't need to worry!'
Additionally, AJIO Life humorously said that this match was the only one in which, 'We wouldn't mind men in blue losing.'
