"Pakistan going to take loan from Indian players"- Top 10 funny memes as BCCI announces 125 crore prize money to Team India for winning World Cup

Team India performed exceptionally in the recently concluded 2024 T20 World Cup and eventually lifted the trophy. Indian players and fans have waited for the elusive ICC trophy for over a decade.

After winning the Champions Trophy in 2013, the Men in Blue came close to winning a trophy in most of the tournaments for the last 11 years. However, they kept faltering in the final stages, which made everyone doubt the players' ability to deliver in crunch moments.

The trophy drought seemed destined to end last November during the 2023 ODI World Cup held in India. The Rohit Sharma-led team put on a dominant show and went through to the finals without losing a single match. They were considered overwhelming favorites ahead of the clash, but Australia played well in the pressure situations in the final and gave a massive heartbreak to the hosts.

Rohit Sharma and Co. picked themselves up after that deflating loss and came well prepared for the T20 World Cup in the USA and West Indies in June. They once again performed exceptionally and reached the final unbeaten.

South Africa mounted a fierce challenge in the summit clash and came really close to winning the trophy, as they needed only 30 runs in the last five overs with six wickets in hand. The Indian bowlers remained composed in the crunch moments and delivered match-defining spells to help their side edge out South Africa by seven runs in the end.

As a result, India became two-time World Champions in T20 format, with their first win coming back in 2007. BCCI Secretary Jay Shah recently announced a prize money of 125 crore for the players, support staff, and selectors. Fans took note of it and expressed their views by sharing hilarious memes on X. Here are some of them:
