After Shami's heroics secure historic win, Delhi, Mumbai police fun banter lights up social media

PTC Web Desk: In a thrilling semifinal showdown in World Cup 2023, the Indian cricket team clinched a remarkable 70-run victory against New Zealand, securing their coveted spot in the finals of the World Cup 2023. Virat Kohli's monumental achievement of scoring his 50th ODI hundred paved the way for India's dominance. Shreyas Iyer's scintillating century further solidified India's commanding position. However, it was the spectacular bowling display by Mohammed Shami that sealed the victory, as he rattled the opposition with an exceptional seven-wicket haul.

The nation erupted in joy, and celebrations reverberated across social media platforms. Messages, videos, and memes flooded timelines, encapsulating the euphoria of this momentous victory. The excitement soared when the official social media handles of the Mumbai and Delhi Police engaged in a lighthearted banter that sent fans into a frenzy.

It all began with a witty post from Delhi Police's account directed at the Mumbai Police, playfully cautioning against booking Mohammed Shami for "tonight's assault."

The Mumbai Police swiftly responded in their signature style, cleverly remarking on Shami's ability to "steal innumerable hearts" and teasingly listing a few "co-accused."

Adding to the fun, Special Commissioner Mumbai Deven Bharti joined the conversation with a tongue-in-cheek defense, humorously asserting that it qualified under the "Right of Self-Defence."

Meanwhile, as the banter between the two police departments captivated social media, the excitement escalated when even the Ahmedabad Police joined in on the chatter. With the World Cup finals set to take place in Ahmedabad, their participation added another layer of humour to the ongoing exchange.

Mohammed Shami's phenomenal performance will go down in history, marking the best bowling figure by any Indian bowler in an ODI match with an awe-inspiring 7/57.
