Zomato made a sarcastic remark about the Pakistan cricket team’s performance following their current defeat to the USA in the ICC T20 World Cup match earlier this week. In a unexpected turn of events, the national cricket team of USA, competing in the Cricket World Cup for the first time, succeeded over Pakistan in a Super Over, winning by 5 runs.
In a post on X, known as Twitter, the food delivery platform (Zomato) referred to Pakistan as ‘bro’ and posed a remarkable question: ‘Should we buy ad slots on Sunday or not?’ The post also critiqued the team’s performance in the recent match against the USA.
pakistan bro aisi performance hogi to tumhi batado sunday ko ad slots le ya na#PakvsUSA

Zomato’s competitor, Swiggy, also joined in on the fun. ‘Looks like you had too many burgers and pizzas in the USA,’ Swiggy commented in a post on X, previously known as Twitter.

The World’s Most Intense Cricket Rivalry
The India and Pakistan cricket teams have faced each other seven times in ICC Men’s T20 World Cup matches: twice in 2007, including the Final, and in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2021, and 2022. The only years they did not compete against each other in this major T20 cricket tournament were 2009 and 2010.
In their seven match ups, India has triumphed six times, including notable wins in the dramatic bowl-out and the 2007 final, as well as Virat Kohli’s remarkable run chase in Australia in 2022. Pakistan’s only victory disrupted India’s World Cup winning streak (both 50-over and 20-over formats) with their 2021 win in Dubai. The most recent T20 World Cup clash between the two teams occurred in October 2022 at a packed Melbourne Cricket Ground in Australia.
