"The biggest scam in ICT"- Top 10 funny memes after India's dismal loss in 5th Test vs Australia in BGT 2024-25

Australia beat India comfortably by six wickets in the fifth Test of the BGT 2024-25 series on Sunday (January 5) at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Thus the hosts won the five-match series by a 3-1 margin and reclaimed the Border-Gavaskar Trophy after ten years.

India began Day 3 of the final Test at 141/6, with Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar at the crease. The visiting team could only add 16 more runs as Pat Cummins dismissed both the overnight batters in quick succession before Scott Boland wrapped the innings to finish with a six-wicket haul.

Usman Khawaja (41), Travis Head (34*), and Beau Webster (39*) then helped Australia chase down 162 in just under 40 overs without much trouble to seal the game and the series. Jasprit Bumrah did not turn up to bowl in the final innings, which significantly hurt India's chances.

Team India's poor performance in all departments in the SCG Test disappointed the fans, who vented their frustration on social media platforms by sharing funny memes.

"Lived up to the hype"- Australia captain Pat Cummins on BGT 2024-25 after winning the 5th Test vs India in Sydney

At the post-match presentation, Australian skipper Pat Cummins reflected on the memorable win, saying:

"This was one of the few ones (trophy) we didn't have. Always got an eye for the last year or two. Lived up to the hype. (Plans for the morning) Just been clear with the plans, minimize the amount of runs. We knew it was a tricky wicket. Just take the game forward, keep ticking runs. Immensely proud of the effort. We spent a lot of time together over the years. It wasn't as bad as it seemed in Perth."

He continued:

"Had a lot of fun with these guys, success in the end is amazing. Such a special group, privileged to have the opportunity to lead them. Support staff, families, they have given a lot. We are having the time of our lives. It's always nice, three debutants this series, filled in really well. Pretty happy with the way I played throughout the series. I was lucky to come fresh into the series. Some key moments, some our mainstays really stood up."
