Jos Buttler has “F* IT” written on his bat. His gloves didn’t get the memo. 😭🧤**
Drops it.
The kind of drop where your soul leaves your body before the ball hits the grass. The kind commentators go silent for half a second because they can’t believe it either. 🤯
That’s the horror of keeping. You can look like a genius for four hours and a clown for one ball. Same man. Same match. Same internet forever.
Dale Steyn didn’t bowl at the MCG. He hunted. 🇿🇦🔥
Boxing Day. 2008. Melbourne. Australia’s house.
The Steyn Gun comes in with veins out, eyes gone, and that late swing that makes grown batters look like they’ve never held a bat. ⚡
First innings: 5 for 87.
Second innings: 5 for 67.
Hayden. Ponting. Clarke. Hussey. Doesn’t matter. Full, fast, moving late. The kind of spell where the crowd goes quiet because they know what’s coming and they still can’t stop it.
Fast bowling used to look like this. Angry. Personal. Unplayable.
My theory is that Dumbledore used his Chocolate Frog cards as a massive network of informants. Kind of like how portraits can move between different versions of themselves, the people on his cards could pass information around and keep him updated on everything going on. That’s probably why he always seems to know what’s happening.
Kevin Pietersen cropped Nasser Hussain out of a group photo and Ravi Shastri posted it on live TV without noticing. 😂📸
Commentators take a nice team pic. Everyone in. Professional. Wholesome.
KP sends Ravi the “final version.”
Ravi posts it.
Nasser is gone. Clean crop. Like he never existed.
Nasser on air: “I thought everything between us was sorted… so why am I cropped out?” 😅
Ravi sitting there realising he’s been used as the delivery system.
Australia were 135 for 8. Target 205. World Cup. Against England.🤯
Australia in ruins. Two wickets left. Win probability: don’t even look.
Then Michael Bevan and Andy Bichel decide the script is wrong. Bevan does the unthinkable.
Bichel? Already taken 7 for 20 with the ball. Then walks in and smokes 34 not out like the first job wasn’t enough. 🔥
Unbroken 73. Two men. A whole country holding its breath.
Win by 2 wickets. Two balls to spare.
Realizing that they were Two soldiers on steroids beating up an orphan with a heart condition because the orphan found out that one of them killed his parents
Janhvi Kapoor had a tattoo that was originally just “KA” for Kartik Aaryan. After their breakup, she added a “2” and later gave interviews saying that “2K” stands for 2000, the year her sister Khushi was born. She also turned the “A” into some kind of triangle. 😭
@GoatXCric Imagine walking back after being given out and then hearing “come back” 😂 Sachin had already accepted his fate, and suddenly he gets a second life. The look on the Australian players’ faces must’ve been priceless. 😭
Sachin Tendulkar was given out. He started walking. Then the umpire called him back. 🇮🇳🤯
ODI. Australia. Ponting’s team already celebrating.
Caught behind. Finger up. Sachin turns. Head down. Walking off like the innings is done. 🚶
Then the umpire freezes.
Looks at his partner.
Looks at the replay in his head.
Realises it hit the shoulder. Not the bat.
“Come back.”
Sachin stops mid-walk. Turns around. Walks back to the crease like nothing happened. 😐
Ponting standing there like the Wi-Fi just dropped.
Gilchrist still holding the ball.
Half of Australia thinking they got him. The other half knowing they didn’t.
