India vs South Africa: Twitterati explode with memes after Faf du Plessis and David Miller have an epic mix-up

If you’ve been watching the match, you must have, by now, seen South Africa’s uncharacteristic sloppy running between the wickets, and witnessed the chaotic mix up between David Miller and Faf du Plessis. For the uninitiated, David Miller had just come to bat and du Plessis was on strike. The latter had just hit the ball and called for a run. While Miller was on his way to the other end of the crease, du Plessis changed his direction mid-way, and by the end of it both the batsmen were running toward the same crease. Yes, indeed. It goes without saying that this gave Virat Kohli and his team an easy opportunity, and they grabbed it.

In case you are wondering who was declared out, it was Miller since he came in late.

Incidentally this happened after AB de Villiers too lost his wicket while running in between the tickets. It was then only a matter of time till social media exploded with jokes.

Here are some of the reactions.
ICC showed the way.

Virat Kohli had the easiest of run outs of David Miller thanks to a chaotic mix up.

Some even thought out an imaginary conversation between the batsmen. But we have a niggling feeling that this might not be too far from the truth.

Miller – i came first 😒
Faf – No bro i was first 😏
DHONI – stop fighting and one of you please go 😂#INDvSA

Dhoni’s presence in the entire mix up was duly noted.
