As the big stage is set for the blockbuster clash between India and Pakistan in Dubai on Sunday (August 28) in the ongoing Asia Cup 2022, everybody is talking about the high-octane match, and now Zomato has joined the long list.
The two old foes are meeting for the first time since Team India’s embarrassing 10-wicket defeat in a group match at the T20 World Cup 2021 in Dubai against Pakistan.
Since there is a lot of hype around India vs Pakistan match, Zomato made the most of the opportunity to remind Pakistani fans of their team’s big loss in the World Cup 2019 against India.
Notably, Team India crushed Pakistan by 89 runs in their 2019 World Cup group-stage match in Manchester. After the loss, a Pakistani fan claimed in a viral post by saying: “I just came to know that the Pakistani players were having pizza and burgers last night. The Pakistani players should go for wrestling instead of cricket. Look at their fitness. We had so many hopes pinned on them and they were having pizza and burgers.”
Taking this tweet into note, Zomato reminded Pakistan of their 2019 World Cup defeat against India on August 27, as both teams are gearing up to revive the rivalry in Dubai on Sunday.
Have a look at the tweet –
