RCB’s Viral Meme on Social Media

The RCB franchise took to social media to mock Pakistan’s slow innings. They posted the famous Sarfaraz Ahmed yawn meme, which originally gained popularity during the 2019 World Cup. The meme humorously reflected the lack of aggression in Pakistan’s batting against India.

The slow approach led to frustration among Pakistan’s fans, with many questioning the team’s strategy.

With Babar Azam and Imam-ul-Haq struggling to accelerate, Pakistan might need changes in the batting order for the next match. The team’s approach remains a concern as they aim to improve their performance in the tournament.

Possible Adjustments for Pakistan’s Next Match:

  • Drop Imam-ul-Haq for a more aggressive opener.
  • Promote Rizwan to an attacking role.
  • Strengthen the middle order to prevent slow phases.

Pakistan must learn from its mistakes and adopt an aggressive strategy in upcoming matches to stay competitive in the Champions Trophy 2025.
