The tweet was posted on January 10. Netizens took to comments section to speculate on who the umpire is. Some users guessed if he is God or Mumbai police.

Non striker — doctor?

On January 9 also, Mumbai Police raised alarm bells on Covid. The police force shared four precautions to guard against the deadly virus. ‘Look for danger’, ‘Don’t touch face before washing hands’, ‘Use ear to hold mask’, ‘Cover your nose and mouth’. “The famous four precautions: the only things that make ‘sense’ these days,” reads the caption of the post.

India on Tuesday reported 1,68,063 new Covid-19 cases and 277 related deaths even as the country’s active count mounted to 8,21,446, data from the Union Ministry of Health showed. The daily positivity rate stood at 10.64 per cent. The Omicron tally, meanwhile, has reached 4,461, with Maharashtra reporting the highest number of cases (1,247), followed by Rajasthan (645) and Delhi (546).

Mumbai Police often posts witty content, hitting headlines. They used four interesting puzzles to highlight the cause of road safety. Earlier, in December last year, they had urged people not to drink and drive while parodying a Hindi song.
