With the celebration of Diwali and the aftermath of the festival, the last week had a lot for us, from cricket matches to Diwali parties, and so much more, here is a quick roundup of all that happened!
The last week that started on a high note with all the festivities of Diwali doubled up as India won the semi-finals of the ICC Men's World Cup and made a place for itself in the finals. But while as high as we started the week, that low we finished it with India losing the World Cup final to Australia winning for the 6th time out of the 8 finals that they have played. And while Cricket dominated the week there were also other things happening in the world. Here is a quick roundup to keep you updated with all of that!
David Beckham in India
The football legend David Beckham who is on his Indian visit has been the talk of the town. After attending the IND VS NZ World Cup semi-finals in Wankhede Stadium and meeting all the content creators at the META event, he was seen with Bollywood celebs at a Diwali party hosted by Sonam Kapoor, and also with Shah Rukh Khan in his house Mannat.
ICC Men's Cricket World Cup
It was a week of cricket matches that dominated our week as the men's World Cup saw its final battles. On one side, India rose up in celebration with the IND VS NZ semi-final with India's win, Virat's record-breaking score, and so much more. On another side, India had a heartbreak with the IND VS AUS final match as we lost the World Cup. Even though Australia's 'Head' broke India's hearts yet the world of the internet rose up to support on the Mondayest Monday of all. In spite of feeling blue people showed around our beloved men in blue, which was unique to notice.
