The Mauka Mauka Jokes Are Back
This new ad by Star Sports that extends the famous 'Mauka Mauka' theme and connects it to Father's Day did make me laugh at its cheekiness, but I immediately felt guilty for laughing. I didn't know why and upon some more thought, I thought that it perhaps lacked grace. 1/2 pic.twitter.com/bWV0tQrKan

Both the batsmen were looking set and threatening to take the game away from India. But Kuldeep's twin strikes opened the floodgates for Pakistan as they lost back to back wickets. India finally won the match by 89 runs and maintained its 7-0 streak over arch rivals Pakistan in the world cups.
