    ‘Sometimes cramps, sometimes I’m acting’: Rizwan’s hilarious quip is leading a meme storm

    Pakistanis celebrated all night long after their cricket team’s stunning victory against Sri Lanka on Tuesday night, successfully chasing down a 345 runs target with six wickets to spare. The win created history as the highest successful chase in the World Cup. Cricketers Muhammad Rizwan and Abdullah Shafiq paved the way for the team, leading it to a comfortable victory with their stunning centuries.

    Now, Rizwan’s hilarious quips after the match have taken center stage. Addressing a press conference, he talked about the cramps that plagued him while he was playing, limping on the pitch.

    Addressing the moment, Rizwan cheekily replied “Sometimes it’s cramps, sometimes I’m acting.”

    The one-liner soon led to a meme-storm on the internet, as if there weren’t enough reasons to love Muhammad Rizwan, he just gave us another one.

    With that, we just found a new way to get off from hectic work schedules thanks to Rizwan

  • ‘India could never’: Pakistani Twitter has declared no cricket anthem rocks like Koi Nahi Like Us

    We know y’all were incredibly dissapointed by the lackluster effort that was ICC’s cricket anthem ‘Dil Jashne Bol’ but fear not, Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is here to save the day with the absolute banger that is ‘Koi Nahi Like Us’ featuring Young Stunners, QB, HYDR and AHSAN. The verdict is out: cricket ka to pata nahin but we lead the race when it comes to good cricket anthems.

    One user on Twitter wrote: “Whether we win or not, Anthem toh winner hai. You’re lying if you didn’t have a blast seeing all the cameos, especially the fan who danced to Atif’s anthem. A HUNDRED points for the cat cameo!”

    Get ready, Shaheen with another present! Rumours that Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma having a baby

    Shaheen Afridi went viral in September after he was seen handing a gift to Indian cricketer Jasprit Bumrah, who had recently become a father. The prodigous bowler was seen congratulating Bumrah and wishing health and happiness for his new baby. Looks like Shaheen will have to get to work again and start concocting present ideas because another Indian cricket team member is rumoured to becoming a father again.

    Reports in media say that Indian cricketer Virat Kohli and his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, are set to become parents once more. The news emerged after the Hindustan Times reported that the actress was possibly in her second trimester, quoting a source:

    “Anushka is expecting her second baby. Like the last time, they will formally share the news with the world at a later stage.”

    The source further added that Anushka and Virat have requested the Indian paparazzi not to post their pictures, and promised to make an announcement soon.

    Any ideas iss baar humara Shaheen kya tofa dein gay Virat Kohli ko? We’re already thinking his friendship with the Pakistani cricketer Shadab Khan must be a greater gift because dosti say ziada kya acha ho sakta hai?
