Zomato, the popular food delivery platform, didn't hold back in poking fun at the Pakistan cricket team following their loss to the USA in the ICC T20 World Cup match earlier this week. In a humorous post on Twitter, the platform referred to Pakistan as "bro" and posed a tongue-in-cheek question: "sunday ko ad slots le ya na"? This witty remark came after the USA's historic victory over Pakistan in a Super Over, winning by a mere 5 runs.

The banter didn't stop there, as Zomato's rival Swiggy also joined in, quipping, "lagta hai USA jaa ke zyada burger pizzey kha liye," on Twitter. This playful exchange added to the social media buzz surrounding the match and showcased the light-hearted yet competitive spirit among food delivery giants.

The Epic Cricket Rivalry: India vs. Pakistan in the T20 World Cup
The clash between the Indian and Pakistan cricket teams is one of the most fiercely contested rivalries in sports. They have met seven times in ICC Men's T20 World Cup matches, with memorable encounters including the 2007 Final, and matches in 2012, 2014, 2016, 2021, and 2022. Notably, India has emerged victorious in six out of these seven encounters.

In the 2007 T20 World Cup Final, India defeated Pakistan in a dramatic bowl-out, securing their first T20 World Cup title. Most recently, Virat Kohli's remarkable performance led India to victory against Pakistan in the 2022 edition in Australia. Pakistan's sole triumph in the T20 World Cup against India came in the 2021 edition in Dubai, where they ended India's unbeaten streak in World Cup encounters.

The last showdown between India and Pakistan in the T20 World Cup took place in October 2022 at the packed Melbourne Cricket Stadium, Australia, continuing the legacy of one of cricket's greatest rivalries.
