New Delhi: After choosing to bat first against Pakistan in their Asia Cup opener, India lost the wickets of Rohit and Virat under 50. Pakistani left-arm pacer Shaheen Afridi bowled out both legends in the span of just two overs.
India started in an attacking way, with Rohit getting two quick boundaries. But the match was soon stopped after 4.2 overs because of rain.
The break worked in Pakistan’s favour, with the ball starting to swing in both directions, making it harder for the Indian batsmen to play and forcing them to go into defensive mode.
Shaheen Afridi soon made them pay with two quick wickets by getting Rohit (11 of 22) and Kohli (4 of 7) out in quick successions.
Netizens were quick to react on the failure of both the batsmen and sparked a meme feast.

You expecting a player who hasn’t batted for nearly 2 months in ODIs to directly come and score in very high intensity game against their arch rival. Joke was always on you.
SHAME ON BCCI, VADAPAV AND DRAVID, POOR MANAGEMENT !
