T20 WC Final: 'Disappointed Pakistan Fan' Has A New Face; Memes Galore On Social Media

The 2022 T20 World Cup has been a thrilling affair. From closely-fought encounters to memorable wins, the mega event completely lived up to the expectations of the fans. The tournament reached to its conclusion on Sunday with England and Pakistan squaring off against each other in the summit clash. Put to bat first, Pakistan posted a total of 137/8 in 20 overs, with Sam Curran scalping three wickets for England. Amid the enthralling cricketing action, a hilarious coincidence came to light during the final showdown which left every fan in splits.

During the 19th over of Pakistan's innings, when Sam Curran had scalped the wicket of Mohammad Nawaz, the stadium camera spotted a fan from the crowd, who was utterly disappointed with the dismissal. Co-incidentally, the fan reminded everybody about the ‘disappointed Pakistan fan', who went viral in 2019 for his reaction.

During the 2019 ODI World Cup, Pakistan was squaring off against Australia when Asif Ali dropped a  sitter that gave David Warner a new life. Seeing this, a fan was visibly disappointed with Asif and his facial expression became a viral meme on social media.
