In the 27th match of IPL 2025 between Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Punjab Kings (PBKS), fast bowler Mohammad Shami became the talk of social media after he gave away 75 runs in his 4-over spell. Following this, a series of hilarious memes began circulating online, poking fun at Shami’s performance.

Shami's Disastrous Spell

Punjab Kings batted first and set a massive target of 246 runs. Mohammad Shami, who was representing Sunrisers Hyderabad, had an expensive outing. He gave away 75 runs in his 4 overs, making him the second bowler in IPL history to concede the most runs in a match, with Jofra Archer (76 runs) still holding the top spot.

Shami bowled the final over of the Punjab innings, and it proved to be an expensive one. Marcus Stoinis hit 4 consecutive sixes in the last 4 balls of Shami’s over, racking up a total of 27 runs in that over alone. To make matters worse, Shami didn’t take a single wicket during the innings.

Punjab Kings posted a daunting total of 245/4, and SRH had no choice but to chase down a massive target.

Funny Memes on Social Media

Following this performance, social media was flooded with funny memes mocking Shami's bowling. Many fans and cricket enthusiasts took to Twitter, Instagram, and other platforms to create hilarious memes, comparing Shami to an old lion or making jokes about his 'vintage' performance. The memes poked fun at his lack of wickets and the number of runs he conceded, making him a trending topic across social media.

These memes added some light-hearted humor to an otherwise tough night for Shami. Here's a glimpse of some of the popular memes circulating:
