Organized sporting events might be a no go this year, but the man from the ‘disappointed man meme‘ is here to make it easier.
The disappointed man meme got us through a lot in 2019, from Pakistan losing to Australia in the International Cricket Cup (ICC) to just everyday hassles.
Now in 2020, we need that kind of moral support more than ever. And who better than the man behind the viral cricket meme, Mohammad Sarim Akhtar, to do it.
Sarim is back, and he wants us to cheer up. The official Twitter account of the Pakistan Cricket Board shared the video of the man behind the famous meme.

It was kind of Mohammad Sarim Akhtar to show support for the Pakistani team. We know how disappointed he was the last time.
“Last time hum series barabar kar ke aaye the, is dafa jeet ke ana hai (The Pakistani team is in England for the series, wow what an exciting time. Well, a simple message for Pakistan, play with pride and passion. Last time, it was a draw, this time we have to win).”
He even made a joke about the moment that led him to become the disappointed man meme.
“With a simple message, if the ball is outside off, let it go, let it go.”
