Following India’s T20 World Cup victory over Australia, the Delhi Police posted a hilarious message that quickly went viral on X.

“This Just In: In a ‘hits-and-runs’ incident in Caribbean, 11 Indian men have ‘stolen’ over a billion hearts. Initial investigation points out the revenge of 19/11 as the motive,” the tongue-in-cheek post read.

With its 24-run victory against Australia, India cemented a spot in the T20 World Cup semifinals.

The Delhi Police’s wordplay on ‘hit-and-run’ – typically associated with accidents where the offender does not stop – and its reference to ‘19/11’ alluding to India’s heartbreaking loss in the 2023 ODI World Cup final saw the post striking a chord with cricket fans.
