In cricket, India and Pakistan have had a long-standing rivalry, with many contested games between the two teams. Every time these Asian powerhouses compete in a cricket match, it ends up being an exciting event, especially for cricket fans. But if there is nothing to eat, what good is a match? While watching this gripping game, many people order a variety of foods. And today, many people on the microblogging platform X (previously Twitter) are talking about an odd tweet made by the food delivery app Swiggy.
Someone from Bengaluru recently placed an order for 62 biryanis. So, who are you? Where are you right now? Are you hosting a watch party for the #INDvsPAK game? Could I come? While the present India vs. Pakistan game was being played in Sri Lanka, Swiggy tweeted.

The post was shared only a few hours ago, yet it already has more than 13,000 views and 160 likes. Internet users responded to it in a variety of ways.
If India wins, will you send me complimentary food from Swiggy? One person commented in jest. Another person said, “Can you send me a pizza, please?
The amusing comment of a third person read, “As if you won’t know their address? How about delivery, please? Meanwhile, a fourth user commented, “You know who they are.”
Cricket matches between India and Pakistan have never only been sporting events; they have become a cultural phenomenon that unites millions of followers. Another Swiggy post had attracted users’ attention on social media before the game. The food delivery app reposted a tweet from the previous year. Swiggy said in the one-year-old post, “Dahi shakkar for the boys before we get started,” and then posted a photo of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma.
It’s quite intriguing that they also reposted the exact same tweet a few hours earlier and gave their fans and followers an explanation. India vs. Pakistan happened last year; we posted this; India won. I’m reposting this for luck. What tweet did you make? Read Swiggy’s post. The statement continued, “We are not superstitious, but we are just a little stitious.
