Much-awaited India - Pakistan clash in the 2023 Cricket World Cup match is likely to be rescheduled due to the festival of Navratri. October 15, the date this big match is scheduled to play, will also mark the first day of ‘Navratri’, a festival celebrated with night-long Garba dance, particularly in Gujarat. The authorities have said that this might cause a major 'security' hassle in Ahmedabad. While the reports of the match getting rescheduled have made cricket fans disappointed, it has also sparked a meme fest on social media, inspired by Bollywood movies and web series. Netizens are dropping hilarious posts as one shared a screengrab of a scene from 'Here Pheri' featuring Paresh Rawal and uses the actor's dialogue in the film 'Program me thoda change rehneka' as a response of BCCI to all cricket fans, who have already 'booked expensive flights, non-refundable hotel rooms and even hospital beds in Ahmedabad for the match.' Another user expressed his disappointment by sharing a scene from the web series 'Mirzapur 2' featuring Pankaj Tripathi saying 'Bhari nuksaan ho gaya humara.' Another tweeted a snap of Amitabh Bachchan folding hands and tweeted, 'Ahmedabad Hotels Be like- Hum aapki sahayata nahi kar paenge.' Meanwhile, the BCCI hasn’t made any official confirmation of rescheduling yet. For more news and updates, stay tuned to ETimes.
