From ‘Jaffer-Vaughan’ banter to ‘Bean Derby’: Funniest Memes of 2022

With more power comes more responsibilities, and with more fame, comes more trolls. Cricket in India is synonymous with any religion and fans follow the cricketers – not only Indian but from other nations as well – throughout their ups and down.

While the players are appreciated when they perform well, they are also required to face a public trial when their performance dips.

Ever since the advent and increasing popularity of Twitter and Instagram, the cricketers have faced the heat of it right and left and till the time it is for healthy laughter, it may be considered in good faith.

The memes gain more traction when the cricketers – current or former – themselves join the banter and send out witty remarks on social media. The Twitter war between Wasim Jaffer and Michael Vaughan has been an exciting show for fans.

We take a look at some of the funniest cricket memes and trolls throughout 2022.
