Don Bradman’s Record Under Threat? Navdeep Saini’s Amazing Batting Average of 92 Ignites Funny Memes and Jokes on Social Media

Navdeep Saini didn’t had a great outing Australia so far as he scalped just one wicket in the first two ODIs. Moreover, his economy rate is also well over nine.  Apart from his dismal bowling performances, however, his batting record has been the talking point in the cricket fraternity. Currently, the speedster has a staggering ODI average of 92. Although Saini has shown his batting prowess, his stellar average isn’t because of his consistent performances but the fact that he has been dismissed only once in his ODI career. His amusing record ignited a lot of memes and jokes on social media. AUS vs IND Dream11 Team Prediction: Tips to Pick Best Fantasy Playing XI for Australia vs India 3rd ODI 2020.

For the unversed, a batting average is the division of number of runs by the number of dismissals. In four innings so far, the 28-year-old scored 92 runs but was dismissed only once. He remained not out in the other three outings. Hence, his batting average will advance over 100 if he manages to score more than eight runs in the third ODI but without being dismissed. If this happens, he'll surpass Australian great Sir Don Bradman who finished his Test career at an average of 99.94. The fact inspired creative netizens to flood Twitter with hilarious posts.
