6. Lagaan run out meme after Ravichandran Ashwin mankads Jos Buttler in the 2019 IPL
In every IPL season, social media platforms get flooded with exciting memes. This memefest makes the league more fun. Many aspects of the game get discussed among fans through memes in a humorous way. Back in the 2019 IPL, the then-Punjab Kings (PBKS) captain Ravichandran Ashwin ran out Jos Buttler at the non-striker's end for taking unfair advantage and this incident grabbed a lot of attention.
Following the incident, a lot of talks happened in the cricketing circle. Along with that, fans of both RR and PBKS teams also had fierce debates with one another. While some England cricket team fans didn’t hesitate to target the India off-spinner for dismissing the RR wicketkeeper batter in a unique style.
However, some Indian fans shared a meme that displayed a Bollywood movie Lagaan scene in which a player from the Indian side was dismissed when taking unfair advantage at the non-striker's end. Sharing the meme, a few Indian cricket fans wrote jokingly that Ashwin took revenge for Tipu’s dismissal in the movie.
