Amidst the fervor of Team India’s magnificent journey to the World Cup 2023 finals, a lighthearted exchange between the Delhi Police and Mumbai Police on social media has sparked a wave of laughter and camaraderie.
Following India’s triumph over New Zealand in the semi-finals, securing their fourth World Cup final appearance, Mohammed Shami’s stellar performance attracted attention on and off the field. Shami’s exceptional seven-wicket haul led to a comical Twitter banter between the police forces.
Delhi Police kickstarted the banter with a witty tweet, playfully jesting about Mumbai Police refraining from lodging any case against Shami for his ‘deadly attack’ on the New Zealand team. Mumbai Police swiftly joined in, replying in jest, humorously pointing out Delhi Police’s oversight regarding ‘stealing innumerable hearts’ and listing some ‘co-accused,’ while subtly acknowledging their understanding of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and applauding the public’s sense of humor.
You missed pressing charges of stealing innumerable hearts @DelhiPolice and listing a couple of co-accused too😂
