The meme stemmed from a cricket match between Australia and Pakistan during the cricket world cup on June 12th, 2019. The Pakistan cricket player, Asif Ali, missed a crucial catch during the game, leading the cameras to capture a shot of a distraught fan, Muhammad Sarim Akhtar, in the crowd with his hands on his hips, expressing his disappointment. The footage first emerged publicly when a Facebook user shared the video that same day.^[1]
