| Boilerpipe Text | It's been quite a dramatic year in world of cricket! From staying inside the bio-bubble for long times to playing so many matches behind closed doors, 2021 was quite challenging. However, it did not stop the beautiful game to produce some exciting stuff on the field, ensuring that some hilarious stuff off the field also continued. Social media was flooded with funny and rib-tickling memes throughout the year with so many major talking-points this year. As we come towards the end of 2021, let us look at top 10 memes from the action-packed last 12 months in cricket: IPL getting postponed in India As the fans were enjoying IPL 2021, it was the only source of entertainment for most people amid the concerns around COVID-19.

There were memes rolling out throughout the course of match but much to everyone's delight, the reserve day ensured that there was a winner (New Zealand) in the end. Another trophy-less season for RCB In Virat Kohli's last year as captain of Royal Challengers Bangalore, the franchise looked on course of finally breaking their deadlock. However, their defeat at the hands of KKR in eliminator ended their dream run in UAE as 'Ee Sala Cup Namade' once again did not happen. CSK beating KKR to win IPL 2021 The grand finale of IPL 2021 in UAE saw Chennai Super Kings completely outplaying Kolkata Knight Riders as MS Dhoni's side lifted their 4th title. Unfortunately for SRK, it wasn't the Chennai Express he was hoping for as the Yellow Army seriously had an upper hand over his side. India getting knocked out of T20 WC After India's back-to-back losses in T20 World Cup against Pakistan and New Zealand, all their hopes lied on Afghanistan. However, Mohammad Nabi's side could not pull off an upset against the Kiwis as their defeat meant that India were also knocked out of the mega event. Australia winning 6th ICC World Cup Winning a world cup in cricket isn't an easy task! As India were hoping to win their first World Cup in 10 years, there were many teams who were aiming to win their maiden title in history of the game.

India's white-ball captaincy saga One of the major talking points of the year, off the field, was the white-ball captaincy saga in Indian cricket which showed signs of miscommunication between BCCI and Virat Kohli. While Rohit Sharma was appointed as the new skipper in ODIs and T20Is, the netizens had a lot to say on social media on the whole situation. England's dismal batting performance in Ashes The Ashes 2021-22 turned out to be a disaster for England as they lost the first three matches, courtesy their shocking batting performance.
