Pakistan cricket fans have developed a notorious habit of venting their frustration by smashing televisions whenever their team loses to India in high-stakes matches. This dramatic reaction has become a recurring spectacle, especially during ICC tournaments, where emotions run high. Viral videos often show disappointed fans taking out their anger on TV sets, symbolizing their deep passion for cricket and the intense rivalry between the two nations. While some see it as an expression of heartbreak, others view it as an exaggerated display of disappointment that has now turned into a meme-worthy tradition.
