The much-talked about India-Pakistan cricket match went awry yesterday. As the Pakistani team under Sarfaraz decimated Kohli’s eleven, fans on social media were left reeling. Luckily enough, relief came in the form of a hockey match featuring India and Pakistan. And, this one had much better results.
Switch to hockey…IND thrashing PAK 6-0..still 8 mins left #INDvPAK

Which prompted this sudden realisation that Hockey was India’s national game, not cricket.
Congratulations Team India who defeated Pakistan by 7-1 in Hockey world league. Hockey is India’s National Game & not a British legacy. pic.twitter.com/HhWY8wxM5P

Queen Bey was also there to save the day. The pop singer gave birth to her twins yesterday. And social media had one more distraction to focus on.
I guess the only reason India had to lose today was because Beyonce had twins. You can’t have too many good things in the world. #INDvPAK
